In addition to that we require helpers for the quiz in the former of runners for the bar and quiz answer sheets etc. Maybe even the odd points adder upper??

 

AND OF COURSE WE WILL HAVE OUR USUAL RAFFLE!! SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING IN YOUR RAFFLE OFFERINGS AND PRESENT THEM TO COMMITTEE AT SOME POINT BETWEEN NOW AND THE 12TH!!

 

SuMmEr ShOw 2020!!!

You must admit that committee are extremely efficient!! Iknow what you're thinking!! "but....but....but...we've only just started rehearsing for panto!!". Well yes we have BUT we work pretty much all year every year to entertain the people so these things need to be organised well in advance! SO we are welcoming proposals and ideas for the next Summer Show but if you you're excited and you just can't hide it then you don't have time to dilly dally because proposals need to be in by the end of November!!!

 

Membership

Ok now memberships are already due!!! In fact membership is always due! If you don't recall paying your membership recently then assume it's due. This section is in red because it's an angry colour and paying money makes people angry but membership must be paid kinda now please!! Forms have been presented to you so you know precisely how much you need to square up. Pay it now and cease to forget about it. Pay it now. Do the right thing and pay it now. LOVE YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!!!!!!!!

The ever lovely Cheryll is the membership secretary for this show, by the way. She's enjoying herself too! Please give your monies and/queries and recommendations into her please and thank you. Pay it now.

 

DVD Collection

Right so you've paid for your Summer Show DVDs but some of you don't seem to want them???? Thanks for your £15 donations but we really want you to have your DVD!! If you remember parting with DVD money but don't seem to be in possession of the merchandise then....errr....could you please get your DVD?? I hear it's very good! Please conflab with Hazel to arrange a collection.

 

Where can we put all our stuff??

We would like to borrow you, as a group, to be our proverbial feelers!! Committee are on the lookout for rentable storage space for our extensive collection of costumes and props!! If you have any ideas then please don't keep it to yourself!!

 

Pretty much it for the time being.

Please say if i've left anything out and let the rest of the group know, ta!!!
