Exploring the organisation of a civic reception

Few days after the start of the New Year, we had a meeting at the Limerick City Council with Kieran Lehane, Director of Service. Having a world-class conference taking place just across the river Shannon from the City Hall, organising a civic reception was an option worth it to explore.

Our guests would be welcomed by the Mayor of Limerick, would have a glass of wine and the chance to wander by the Shannon and admire the view, surrounded by King John's Castle, Saint Mary's Cathedral, and the Hilton on the other side of the river...

Limerick's Mayor gets elected every year, so we don't know yet who will hold the position in September 2007. But we believe it will be a good opportunity for our guests to find out more about the city of Limerick!

The message of
the current Mayor, Councillor Joe Leddin, on the City Council's website highlights some of Limerick's best achievements, and there's also a good collection of visitor information available.


Although there are still details to be arranged(including good weather;-), Mr. Lehane agreed, on behalf of the City Council, to host the civic reception for the ECSCW'07 conference participants on Wednesday, September 26th.
