[Strawbale] European Straw Bale Gathering



[Once again, this time in .txt to those of you who also received a scrambled link due to the .html formatting of yesterdays mail to the list]

Dear  European âStraw Balerâ,

Whether you are involved in straw bale building as a builder, architect, engineer, researcher, educator or apprentice, the ESBG is the central event for sharing latest developments, while also meeting and networking with your peers.

Weâre delighted to host this yearâs bi-annual gathering at the PermaLot Centre of Natural Building in the Czech Republic. Youâll be in the midst of our certified organic land trust, and we aim to continue the initial tradition of making ESBG one of the most environmental and socially sustainable international trade gatherings in existence.

The price is kept low, which means it does not include sufficient overhead for discounts or scholarships. We encourage those of you in a good financial situation to consider to support those not able to afford the ESBG; Please write your offer and need to us, and we'll try to match up the rich with the poor...This has to happen before 15/03 2011.

Hope to see many of you here!...

The ESBG Team

PS: We kindly ask you NOT to post the .pdf on websites, apart from e-lists, but simply to forward this information in your national language, to as many S.B. enthusiasts as possible. Do supply the link, but please don't rename it to ESBG 2011: We named it 'straw invitation' to avoid it being found by majority of search engines.

We do so to try to save having riot police, fences and tear gas, when our little village would be invaded by 1000's of wild and crazy (but well intended) straw bale curious people wanting to join this phenomenal gathering of straw bale peers!
