13th ATiC meeting
Calabria / Italy
June 2002

The 13th ATiC meeting took place in Calabria/Italy, on Camping Calabrisella, located directly at the beautiful beach of Catanzaro Lido. We stayed there from 8th of June 2002 (evening) until 13th of June 2002(departure).

During Val di fassa meeting, i show to Micha that should be possible to organize one in southern Italy. Later, next November, i received an e-mail that asked me if i still interested to organize the meeting. My answer was of course

To bear that - I don't live there anymore - I organized all by phone (with my dad providing support for wine and BBQ)

The choice was Camping Calabrisella, located in a pinewood near Catanzaro beach, in a strategical position for various tours as well as a jump into the sea.

A solid group of participating meet in Livorno to take ferry to Palermo, to save some km and to profit by a trip to Sicilia..

Here our heroes on the Etna!

Afterwards they continued the journey to Calabria.
