Dear Chaine Member,

As you may already know, the original programme which your Board planned for the year has had to undergo some changes so we should apologize for the unexpected. But we know how huge is the task that faces each hotel or establishment which commits to host a Chaine Gala dinner and there are times when the prospect is just too much and a graceful withdrawal has to be made.

So, for the welcome back post-summer holiday event, we are happy to announce that the very experienced management and staff of the Gangnam Novotel have stepped into the breach to host the Gala Dinner on 29th August.

Once again, as we did at the Westin Chosun not so very long ago, we will spend the evening in the intimate surroundings and atmosphere of a quality restaurant rather than in a Ballroom. Each time we have had a similar experience it has been a resounding success, so to secure your places, please book early!

Details for making your reservation are as follows:

DATE	29th of August, 2009
LOCATION	Novotel Ambassador Gangnam
COCKTAIL	18.45 at SHUNMI (Lower Lobby)
DINNER	19.30 at SHUNMI (Lower Lobby)
TICKETS	Members and their spouses/partners Won 220,000
	Guests of members Won 280,000
