IRTA’s Euro Chapter Marks 10th Year
Anniversary
The IRTA European Chapter will be celebrating its 10th year
anniversary this September at IRTA’s 29th Annual International
Convention at the Westgate River Ranch Resort outside Orlando,
Florida, from September 22 to 25, 2008.
IRTA Hall of Fame member Paul Suplizio founded IRTA’s European
Chapter when he recognized the growth of barter and trade in the
European market. Since the European Chapter’s inception, member
barter exchanges have included representatives from Belgium,
England, Scotland, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland,
Slovakia, and Turkey.
“The European Chapter continues to grow and plays an important role
in IRTA,” confirmed Executive Director Ron Whitney. “We just had a
terrific Euro Conference in Poland where we created a whole new
slate of exciting initiatives, and voted in a new group of Euro
officers.” The new European officer’s slate is Richard Logie
(president), Rob Van Hilten (vice president), Dariusz Brzozowiec
(treasurer), and Reiner Husemann (secretary).
