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 />
