Dear all, hi!
I would like to congratulate our wonderful ambassadors!!! Everyone deserves
this role to enhance our SEEDIG`s fame.
(As a secret, I hope one day (before I become a grandmother-) to get the
opportunity to be in this list.-)
Off-topic:
I have a question about our next steps - I remember last year we all had
the opportunity to participate in the preparation of sessions.
I'm sorry if I missed some information - may we be involved again and when
do we start?
Sincerely yours,

>> Have a nice day, everyone!
