have put together a trip to ISH-Frankfurt. They're working with Viega on this one and they always do it right. Here's the letter that explains the details:

Re: ISH Trip March 2003

This is to inform you briefly about the International Sanitation and Heating Show, which takes place in Frankfurt, Germany from March 27, 2003 to March 30, 2003. We are happy to invite you to be one of our participants. The ISH fair takes place every other year and is the world’s largest heating and plumbing show with a total exhibition space of over 2.5 million square feet, 2,174 international exhibitors and 218,000 visitors. Hydronic heating and plumbing is one of the largest segments of the show. Yourself being in the plumbing and heating business, we can assure you this is a show worthwhile seeing!

Viega ProPress and PM/PME are organizing a one-week trip with the following itinerary:

Sunday, March 23: meeting point Frankfurt Airport, Sunday A.M. Viega personnel will be on site. Bus transfer and check in to Castle “Hotel Burg Schnellenberg” in Attendorn.

Monday, March 24: Visit the Viega World headquarters in Attendorn. Tour of the “Propress XL” production followed by a transfer to the Viega training center in Ennest for a short introduction presentation. After lunch there will be a tour of Viega’s bronze casting factory followed by a tour through the distribution logistic center. Prior to dinner there will be a tour of Europe’s largest stalagmite caves in Attendorn.

Tuesday, March 25: Travel to our fitting manufacturing plant in Großheringen with a short coffee break at the former West/Eastern German border. After lunch at the Viega training center there will be a tour of the “Propress” copper fitting production in the Großheringen manufacturing plant. Check into “Inter-city” hotel in Weimar followed by dinner at a local brewery “Felsenkeller”.

Wednesday, March 26: Visit various construction sites and then check in to “Hotel Hoehn” in Ruedesheim and in the evening there will be dinner and wine tasting.

Thursday and Friday, March 27 & 28: Visit to the ISH show in Frankfurt, Germany and a tour of the Viega booth. Friday after the fair we will transfer to a Cruise ship for evening dinner and then check in to Ibis Intercity Arcade hotel in Heidelberg.

Saturday, March 29: Sight seeing tour of Heidelberg of an optional visit of ISH Trade Show.

Sunday, March 30: Return to the United States.

The total cost covering food, lodging and ground transportation for one week will be $1700.00 per participant, everyone is required to make his own flight reservation and cover his own airfare to and from Frankfurt, Germany.

Seats are limited to a total of 40 people; the interest so far is tremendous. The trip will be organized and guided by Viega North America.

Please keep in mind that the ISH fair is a unique show worthwhile seeing. This trip will be mostly business related with one day of sight seeing; therefore spouses are not advised to go. However, if you arrange meeting your spouse on March 30th in Frankfurt to continue your European trip together, it gives you the opportunity to combine your business with a personal trip. This has been successfully practiced in many other trips we organized in the past.
