 ENSISHEIM “METEORITE 2013” NEWS
 (January 26, 2013)
 
 Dear meteorite friends & Meteorite-Central List
 
 Please find here the preliminary news concerning the 14th edition of  
 our meteorite show “Ensisheim-Meteorite 2013”, expecting this will  
 reach you in time before you start the next “Tucson blast” where most  
 of you who live “overseas” (and from the vast world as well) will  
 gather soon.
 
 This info completes the official flyer that will be ready in a couple  
 of weeks and that I will be glad to forward you individually, upon  
 request.
 
 Further show details will be also sent to the List in a couple of  
 months, as every year. Here are just the main changes useful for those  
 wishing to book tables and foresee specific arrangements.
 
 SHOW DATES:
 
 Saturday June 22 (9:30-18:00) and Sunday June 23 (9:30-16:00), 2012  
 (the weekend preceding the “Mineral & Gem” show that is held in Ste  
 Marie-aux-Mines, relatively nearby (~ 80 km), with Friday June 21 as  
 the “dealer’s day”).
 
 SHOW LOCATION:
 
 Exceptionally this year, THE SHOW LOCATION MUST BE CHANGED!
 
 Indeed, the famous Regency Palace which is the usual and unavoidable  
 place to set the show, is subject to heavy works that unfortunately  
 will not be completed by the due date.
 
 While the external buildings are expected to be reconditioned, the  
 interior halls will by no means be accessible in June: all the rooms  
 and corridors will be restored and repainted while an elevator (lift)  
 will be built so as to facilitate the rise and handling of your heavy  
 meteorite boxes in future. (Hey, never worry, the famous medieval  
 spiral staircase will stay untouched).
 
 Naturally in 2014, for the 15th Anniversary of the show coinciding  
 with the 30th Anniversary of the Confraternity of Guardians creation,  
 a brand renovated Regency Palace will welcome you again!
 
 For 2013 (only) we have obtained another separate building called  
 “FOYER St MARTIN”, which is located quite close (about 350 m) to the  
 Regency palace, and just separated from the “Domaine du Moulin” hotel  
 by the main street (distance ~150 m).
 
 You can find the place, the building picture and the access map in the  
 following link:
 
 
http://www.jds.fr/agenda/manifestations/expo-bourse-aux-meteorites-2013-a-ensisheim-53539_A
 
 The “Foyer” consists in one large 18.6 x 12 meter room, resembling the  
 Regency main hall, though larger.
 The usual 160x80 cm tables will be arranged similar to the Regency  
 arrangement, namely all around the walls and also arranged in a  
 “middle square”.
 The daylight basically comes from the glass ceiling, and will provide  
 a uniform illumination (personal lighting is always allowed). This  
 means that the characteristics (light etc) of every place in the hall  
 will be practically the same.
 
 A small bar, dressing room, telephone room, restrooms … are adjacent  
 to the main hall.
 Opposite the entry is a podium accessible from both hall sides by 2  
 staircases. The podium will host the genuine Ensisheim meteorite in  
 its display window, the thematic exhibit (Meteorites from Antarctica –  
 see below) and the consignment room, all visible from the main floor.
 
 3 doors on the west side lead to a large terrace (18x8 m) where at  
 least 4 tents will be erected, each containing 4 dealer tables.
 
 The terrace itself adjoins a large park providing all the usual  
 facilities (tables for food, leisure, snacks, tent for dinner party,  
 enthroning ceremonies, Friday friendly drink, every day drinks, music,  
 beverage bars, dance…).
 In fact, all what was set on the Regency main square will be shifted  
 to that park next to the “Foyer” terrace.

Hello Martin, all,
 
 Martin thanks very much for the link (Antarctica daily adventures)  
 that I should not have forgotten to include!
 Oh my...too many issues to think about, fast.
 
 Indeed here we also do follow their wanderings in the cold Antarctic  
 deserts with a strange mix if anxious and pleasent feelings and we  
 enjoy so much their extraordinary findings.
 
 I foresee a superb and very original exhibit of "cold wonders" in  
 Ensisheim soon. And what a lecture in perspective!
 You can't miss this!
 
 The other mistake I want to correct is the name of Vinciane, one of  
 the important leading members of the Antarctic expedition.
 Her family name is well DEBAILLE, not Debienne.
 Thanks Martin, thanks Etienne.
 
 Best wishes,
 
 Zelimir

 works. The usual restaurants (e.g. “Boeuf Rouge”) are of course  
 permanently open.

 Friday June 21st is the "DEALER’S DAY" devoted for tables/booth set  
 up. The Foyer room and tents are exclusively open to dealers (14:00 -  
 18:00), and NOT to the public. Gathering in the park is scheduled for  
 everybody (dealers & invited) for 18:15 when the enthroning ceremonies  
 followed by the traditional friendly drink start.
 
 The total number of tables remains limited to about 55. (about 45-50 dealers).
