Annual General Meeting<br />

The next AGM of <strong>Devon</strong> <strong>Folk</strong> will take place on<br />

Saturday 25th April <strong>2009</strong> in Budleigh Salterton.<br />

<strong>No</strong>minations are invited for a President and<br />

Treasurer (both elected annually) and for new<br />

or present committee members seeking reelection<br />

(if they are one of the six due to retire<br />

by rotation). A nomination form is included<br />

below and photocopies will also be accepted. All<br />

nominations together with details of Proposer and<br />

Seconder, should be sent to me by the 31st March<br />

<strong>2009</strong>. The AGM will be preceded by a Music<br />

Workshop for <strong>Folk</strong> Dance Musicians led by Pete<br />

Mac. He will also lead the massed workshop band<br />

in playing for the evening dance after the AGM<br />

with caller Nicole Mac.<br />

Do you know anyone between 10 and 16 interested<br />

in <strong>Folk</strong> music, dancing or song<br />

<strong>Devon</strong> <strong>Folk</strong> News<br />

Do they want to be able to join with others of their<br />

own age to have fun playing, dancing and singing<br />

together If after reading the article about NYFTE<br />

(The National Youth <strong>Folk</strong> Team of England) in<br />

this edition of What’s Afoot they feel they would<br />

like to go to the ‘Auditions’ being held during<br />

the Chippenham Festival next year and try for a<br />

place in the team and they would like some help<br />

towards travelling expenses to Chippenham and<br />

back, let myself or a member of the committee<br />

know. Our young folk are important to us and<br />

deserve our encouragement<br />
