Ancona is waiting with great expetation the most important event of 2009, the European Veterans Athletic Championships Indoor, an international happening dedicated to the veterans of the Athletic. Capital of the Marche region, historically called Ankon (elbow) the city is placed on the Adriatic sea, surrunded by hills around the Conero cliff, is ready to welcome the thousend people expected, athletes, trainers and general staff. We like to give a warm welcome to everybody, wishing all to achive here great resoults and feeling like at home, in a friendly and stimulating envirolment, which has always been a melting pot of travelers, people and cultures. It’s a very peacefull city – like everyone will say – where people from all over the world still lives together without any problems or difficulties. More then hundred different kind of ethnic culture settled in this harbor city, working as fishermen, shipyards, in the industry and in the sale. The very good position, no doubt about it, in the middle of Italy on the Mediterranean sea, makes it a unique place where people have acttualy the luck to watch sunset and dawn, where a walk from sea to sea make the city life alot more pleasent. We are confident on the fact that both athletes and staff will feel welcome, supported by the warm of the Ancona audience and a new concept facility, the Pala indoor. It is concidered for its tecnical and build characteristics one of the best Europian facility for the Athletic. The facility, strongly requested from the city hall administration a couple of years ago, has been working on full schedule, giving Ancona an international role. On behalf of the city administration and the city itself we would like to say, we hope to see you again for future holiday: Welcome, a good staying and good luck to all you great athletes!
