Visit the Deltaworks!

The Dutch know how to manage the water, it's been a constant struggle in the past centuries with the lowpoint being a major flood in 1953 with thousands drowning. Nowadays big dikes keeps the water out succesfully. One of the major accomplishments in the fight against the water are the 'Deltaworks' in Zeeland, in the southwest corner of the Netherlands, with the 'Eastern Schelde dam' being the masterpiece. The first part of the Deltaworks were built about 50 years ago, and the Eastern Dam was finished in 1986. Check for more information: http://www.deltawerken.com/23

I think both Dutch and foreigners would love to see the Delta works by themselves. For me it's been a while as well, so that's why I set up a meeting event for June 5th. The enthusiasm was overwhelming in the first few days with over 20 people signing up. We are working hard on the program now, but it will include a museumvisit and the visit of the outside structures. It could be a whole weekend event for those who want, with camping, or we could have a night program in a city afterwards. It depends on you as well. Ideas and suggestions are very welcome. So please sign up, and let's make it a fun event! We'll keep you updated then.
