The topics to be discussed at the first meeting will be Federal Benefits and experts from the Embassy will be coming to discuss the issue. The other primary topic will be Voting from abroad and a discussion about voting procedures. We would also like to reserve some time for questions and concerns of locally residing Americans as a way to prepare for future meetings and also for the ability to address what the US Consulate can do to assist Americans who are living abroad. We are hoping to have a good turn out, so please keep the date in mind. If you have any specific issues you would like information on.... please feel free to PM me and I will try to prepare an answer for your specific question.
Also, we are hoping that this meeting will give the American Community that is living here a chance to meet each other and socialize and for this purpose, I was thinking to have a happy hour at a local restaurant. If any of you are local restaurant owners / managers and would like to have your facility involved with this, please PM me.
More to come....
