Alan Bolton has long been a great supporter of the club and we very much
appreciate his generosity.
This is the first time that David Isitt has been a Platinum Sponsor for the
Charity Club’s Charity Gala Dinner. Christina presented David with his first
and hopefully not the last certificate of appreciation! See you at the next
event David!

unity, especially in these economic hard times.
Most importantly it is for giving luck and encouragement to staff working for

Operations Manager, Thai Garden Resort
28 students from the Dutch University of Tourism (NHTV) recently visited
Thailand for 2 weeks. The trip was organized by Diethelm Travel Thailand. Their
last stop was at the Thai Garden Resort in Pattaya.
The students had several assignments related towards the tourism in Thailand.
The most challenging assignment was to develop a new round trip tour, suitable
for tourists from Europe throughout Thailand which does not exist in any travel
itinerary yet.
Their trip through Thailand showed them Bangkok, Lampang and Chiang Mai. For
their last stay they came to Pattaya where they enjoyed a pleasant stay at the
Thai Garden Resort.
On April 22, Maarten Groeneveld, managing director of Diethelm Travel Thailand,
held a presentation for the students at the Moon River Pub about the current
situation in the Travel industry and answered questions from the students.
Afterwards everyone enjoyed a fun night with an international buffet and live
music by the well known “Power Jam Band” at the Moon River Pub.
