<strong>ANNUAL</strong> <strong>CONFERENCE</strong> <br />
<strong>2015</strong>
Welcome to the TATOC <strong>2015</strong> conference -‐A Time For Change. How many times have we <br />
heard this at various conferences, meetings and discussions over the years? <br />
Topics such as resales, perpetuity, fixed weeks, points and fractional products are still high <br />
on the agenda and continue to cause concern to timeshare owners. <br />
Although considerable progress has been made by resort committees, management <br />
companies, resale agencies and the legitimate timeshare industry as a whole, there is still a very active <br />
rogue element taking many thousands of pounds from the timeshare consumer. <br />
TATOC believes by working with all stakeholders involved in the timeshare Industry, with an inclusive, <br />
positive approach, we will find long-‐term solutions to the challenge faced by consumers and the industry. <br />
At the TATOC conference the speakers will impart information and advice covering a wide range of topics <br />
relevant to all delegates including a special motivational presentation. Presentations cover: <br />
Why Change? <br />
Invasion from the East -‐ New Tourism Trends <br />
The Timeshare Ownership Study <br />
Returning Timeshare Weeks To The Developer -‐<br />
and The Legal Process Involved <br />
International Industry Panel Discussion <br />
Resort Chairman Panel Discussion <br />
Mapping the Changes and Open Forum <br />
It won’t all be work, work, work! The social side includes a welcome reception on Friday evening followed <br />
by the welcome dinner (dress smart casual and no seating plan!). On Saturday evening there is a cocktail <br />
and canapés reception followed by the gala dinner (dress smart casual with seating plan!) <br />
During the gala dinner we’ll be holding our annual raffle in support of Christel House. Vivienne Noyes-‐Thomas <br />
will give a brief update during Saturdays afternoon’s session. Please support and prizes are gratefully accepted! <br />
I look forward to meeting with you on what will be another well-‐attended conference. <br />
Harry <br />
