Subito dopo il pagamento, è possibile, anche quest’anno, cambiare orario e giornata di corso, ma solo dopo previa comunicazione scritta via mail a : aiatriesteinfo@gmail.com 

Dopo il cambio vi manderemo la mail di conferma.

 

Per i genitori che iscrivono figli minori.

Per il Pagamento Online: quando entrerete nel vostro account, ricordate di entrare nella scheda del figlio (non la vostra!) e da lì effettuerete il pagamento.

Chiediamo anche, a tutti i genitori, una volta scelta la giornata e l’orario, di mantenere i figli sempre nello stesso gruppo.

Eventualmente, ricordiamo la possibilità di effettuare il pagamento anche tramite bonifico.

 

La sessione Winter, tranne i corsi Online, è prevista, al momento, in presenza, pertanto ricordiamo a tutti di seguire i soliti protocolli Covid-19 e, per i ragazzi sda 12 anni in su (tranne chi ha esenzioni per patologie) di esibire il Green Pass valido.

Avvisiamo anche che, in caso di peggioramento della situazione epidemiologica, (speriamo di no) siamo comunque pronti a proseguire i corsi, come l’anno scorso, con le lezioni Online tramite la piattaforma Zoom.

Thanksgiving 2021

EVENT CANCELLED  - EVENTO CANCELLATO.

Trieste, November 11, 2021

Dear Members  

Thanksgiving is a very important holiday for the Associazione Italo Americana FVG, however, in light of recent events in our city, which have resulted in an increase of Covid cases, we have decided to cancel the event.  

We are sorry for this decision, but we prefer, in this period of uncertainty, to consider the health and peace of mind of our members.  We hope to celebrate "Thanksgiving" next year as we did in the past.

Thank you for your comprehension.  We hope that you will be able to enjoy the holiday at home. 
Happy Thanksgiving!

Gentili Soci,

Thanksgiving è una festa annuale molto sentita nella nostra Associazione, però, alla luce degli ultimi eventi, accaduti nella nostra zona che hanno comportato un incremento di contagi, abbiamo deciso di annullare l'evento.

Ci dispiace molto di questa scelta, ma abbiamo preferito, in questo periodo di incertezza, pensare alla salute e alla tranquillità dei nostri soci, sperando per il prossimo anno di festeggiare il "Thanksgiving" come abbiamo sempre fatto negli anni passati.
Grazie della comprensione.  Speriamo che potrete festeggiare a casa. 

Happy Thanksgiving!
