Each year, GWOCI members vote for a designated GWEF Treffen to support. Members who attend the designated Treffen receive the GWOCI Euro Tour patch at that year's AGM. This year, at the 2019 AGM on Saturday 19th October, members voted for two designated Treffens in 2020, the 20th Austrian Treffen and the 40th Anniversary British Treffen!
20th Austrian Treffen
25th to 28th June 2020
The Austrian Treffen takes place every second year. This year, the 20th Austrian Treffen will take place in Ramsau am Dachstein. The Treffen begins on Thursday 25th June but attendees are welcome to arrive at the Treffen site from the previous Sunday (21st June). Separate charges will apply for early arrivals.
A new GWEF tour called the Edelweiss Challenge has been announced and will take place between the Slovenian Treffen the previous week (18th to 21st June) and the Austrian Treffen.

40th Anniversary British Treffen
27th to 31st August 2020
The much anticipated 40th Anniversary British Treffen promises to be a great weekend. There is a fancy dress "Day at the Races" themed party on the Friday night - plenty of time to start planning your costume! Uttoxeter is centrally located in the UK and is approximately a 3-hour (250 km) drive from Holyhead. Pre-inscription will open soon and everyone who pre-inscribes will receive a free Treffen t-shirt! Head over to the GWOCGB website (link) to download the pre-inscription form (coming soon).
There will be a caravan and motorhome park on the grounds of the Treffen site (Uttoxeter Racecourse). Attendees wishing to use this facility should book directly with the park by phoning + 44 1889 564172 or emailing uttoxeterracecourse@camc.com. Please note that the cost of the caravan and motorhome park is separate to the Treffen inscription fee.
