<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>Once upon a time there was a little but enthusiastic group of students in a city called Somewhere. They heard about AEGEE and decided to join, but<I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal">. there was no local in their city!</I> No problem, they thought - we could create a new local! So they contacted the CD and set up a <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Contact.</B> Soon they had their own statute and lots of ideas about their future activities and so they were ready to become <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Contact Antenna. </B>They signed the Convention d'Adhésion at the following Agora and became officially AEGEE-Somewhere. Within one year they organized their first event and finally they became an <B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal">Antenna</B>.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><o:p><FONT size=3> </FONT></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>So as you see the first step is always set up a contact, together with a group of at least 10 interested people. The statute has to be approved by AEGEE-Europe and the Juridical Commission. There are model statutes so it's quite easy.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>Maybe you remember from the last Agora when all the plenary was singing and clapping hands- well that was the moment when the new locals signed the Convention d'Adhésion, the contract between the local and AEGEE-Europe which gives to the local the right to adopt the denomination AEGEE-(city).<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>But still, the local is "only" a Contact-Antenna (this means for example that they don't have voting right at the Agora). To become an Antenna it has to organize within one year an european event (for example a Summer Event within the Summer University project) and of course pay the membership fees and send a financial report and a members list, just as every local.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>Once the local is upgraded to Antenna, it has some obligations in order to remain an Antenna, like sending delegates to the statutory meetings, sending financial and activity reports, organizing european events at least every 2 years.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>If they don't fulfill the criteria, they might be downgraded to Contact-Antenna again and then cancelled.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB"><FONT size=3>Who wants to found a local has to contact the CD but of course lots of help can come from the Network Commissioner of the Region and his team who can motivate the new local and help them with the first steps.<o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></P>
