2009: THANKS

Together with this look back over Helta's activities in 2009, Helta would like to thank the individuals, publishers and organizations who helped us put on events and run our association:

Additional thanks to: John Gunn & Partner for sponsoring postage for the summer newsletter mailout; Lawrence Harris for taking minutes at the last AGM; Toni Witt-Fox, Janine Bray-Müller and Annemarie Kelly for ensuring that refreshments were on offer; and the many additional "helping hands" who set up the room and put it to rights following events. Last spring Janine and Toni represented Helta at the annual inter-Elta event in Ulm - many thanks to both for devoting their weekend to this.

Helta views the newsletter English Teaching Matters as an essential element of the association. We would therefore like to thank Janine Bray-Müller for her tireless efforts as both editor for Hamburg contributions and author of many of these. This year we would also like to thank Lawrence Harris for his event review, as well as our colleagues at ELTAB-B, ELTAS, ELTAU and ELTA-OWL for making this an informative, attractive, and highly readable publication.

A final thanks to Helta's 2009 Management Team who generously volunteered their time and energy to the association: Toni Witt-Fox (chair), Kay Kilshaw (treasurer), Nick Jones (membership secretary & newsletter dispatcher), Darrel Knutson (website), and Elfie Homann (liaison with publishers).
