Wollongong Regional Tour 21-22 May
Please ensure that you have arranged your own transport and accommodation for the Wollongong regional visit. Check the information distributed by Max Brennan about the weekend with the Arcadian Lamplighters.
Annual Fundraising Concert
I am calling for expressions of interest from members to assist with the organisation of both of these concerts. Please contact me if you can help in some way.
The Thursday concert is designed for the Aged Care industry residents and the Saturday afternoon concert is for the general public. Several committee members will be involved of course.
Thanks to those members who have already come forward.
Antarctica Conference
Note that the date has been changed from 28th June to Saturday 25th June times and precise details still to be confirmed but probably in the evening.
Sib files have been distributed by Andrea, via Geoff Ford, for the proposed songs. Continue to practice from these please.
Life Membership Policy
Recently, your committee approved a slight change to the wording of one part of the policy. The wording will now read, after the heading "Process for assessing applications for Life Membership" as follows:
"A nominator SHOULD NOT approach the member they propose for Life Membership. Initially, nominations (together with a seconder) for Life Membership should be forwarded to the President for consideration by the committee."
All other wording in the existing policy remains the same.
Annual Retreat
Your committee has tried to provide a significant lead time to enable you to plan your commitments accordingly. Our Retreat weekend has been booked once again at Goulburn Conservatorium for 17-18 September.
Choir Promotion
The hard copy versions of the flyers were available last Tuesday; however the former venue is printed. Timings of ordering, printing and our recent move did not quite coincide unfortunately.
Try to remember to update latest venue details when you hand out a hard copy version. Geoff Ford has prepared and stuck on correction stickers on the remainder of flyers. Brilliant job thanks Geoff.
Music and Folder Indexes
Remember to purchase your London Gig books as these are available from the desk when you pay you nightly subs or during the brew break.
Please attend to your music folders following the Repertoire Committee work in rationalising previous indexes. Revised indexes have been emailed and distributed to all members.
Sibelius files
All Choir members should note that all converted Sibelius files remain the property of the Australian Rugby Choir and must not be transferred to third parties other than other financial members of the ARC.
Remember
This Warble is available on the website.
Many Parts in Tune
