Annual General Meeting The next AGM of Devon Folk will take place on Saturday 25th April 2009 in Budleigh Salterton. Nominations are invited for a President and Treasurer (both elected annually) and for new or present committee members seeking reelection (if they are one of the six due to retire by rotation). A nomination form is included below and photocopies will also be accepted. All nominations together with details of Proposer and Seconder, should be sent to me by the 31st March 2009. The AGM will be preceded by a Music Workshop for Folk Dance Musicians led by Pete Mac. He will also lead the massed workshop band in playing for the evening dance after the AGM with caller Nicole Mac. Keeping up to date. If you are unable to nd information about folk events organised within Devon in a current issue of What’s Afoot and have access to the internet, you may well nd what you are looking for on the much improved Devon Folk website which our new webmaster Trevor Paul updates frequently on our behalf. Give it a try! Youthful folk Do you know anyone between 10 and 16 interested in Folk music, dancing or song Devon Folk News Do they want to be able to join with others of their own age to have fun playing, dancing and singing together If after reading the article about NYFTE (The National Youth Folk Team of England) in this edition of What’s Afoot they feel they would like to go to the ‘Auditions’ being held during the Chippenham Festival next year and try for a place in the team and they would like some help towards travelling expenses to Chippenham and back, let myself or a member of the committee know.
