Newsletter, July 2009

Dear friends

This is an official announcement from IDEC 2009 KOREA Organising Committee

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear IDEC 2009 KOREA applicants

We are slowly recovered from shock of the cancellation
and working hard to arrange things to support those who still decide to come to Korea
despite the virus alert and the official cancellation of IDEC 2009 KOREA.

1. Organizing Committee will arrange a pick-up service for you from the airport
but we need to use public transport from the airport to city center in Seoul and you need to pay the fare.
2. Accommodation between 29 July - 8 Aug will be provided.
It will be one of democratic school in/around Seoul.
We are trying to arrange a simple breakfast (Bread, Milk, Cereal...) but you have to sort out the rest of your meal.
3. We are organizing a 4days (3nights) camp at Jeonin School in Chuncheon city
and would like to invite you to join. It will be between 3 Aug (Mon) ~ 6 Aug (Thu) 2009.
There will be a small fee for your food/accommodation. (Probably less than $50)
You may use this opportunity to meet the young people, teachers and parents who took a main roles to organise IDEC 2009 KOREA
and meet each other coming internationally and share idea/opinions.
We are expecting around 100 people there including those of you who are in Korea at the period.
4.Visiting democratic schools will be arranged during  30 July~2 Aug and 7~8 Aug.
5.Young people here at the organizing committee are ready to help you to guide on your tour/travelling depending on their schedule.
Please note their English speaking level is varied.

This is official support from the organizing committee of IDEC 2009 KOREA
to those who still decide to come to Korea. 

Again we are truly sorry for all your troubles caused by the cancellation of IDEC 2009 KOREA
and hope to see you again in the nearest future.

Best Regards

Organizing Committee
