72 - Devon Folk

Devon Folk NewsIn the last issue of What's Afoot we reported the change of name of the Devon District FolkCommittee to DEVON FOLK. Following this, at our last committee meeting it was suggested thatwe should have an appropriate logo to reflect the change and also, once the logo had been agreed,perhaps we could produce T-Shirts and/or Sweat Shirts incorporating the logo. Would members beinterested in purchasing these items or perhaps you have other suggestions to make. Please let usknow, we are always interested to hear your views.Another point of discussion has been our Annual General Meeting. In the past we have held theAGM in various parts of the county to give more members achance of attending. Clubs have beeninvited to host the meeting and it has always been followed by afolk event of some sort. The 2004AGM will be held on the 20th March in Sandford Village Hall followed by aceilidh with RichardMason and the band Pigs Might Fly.In 2005 we are proposing to alter this format slightly. Devon Folk will host the meeting, which willbe followed by some form of entertainment. This could be adance, ceilidh or perhaps aconcert.Which would you prefer? Please let us have your views and suggestions.The Committee would like to thank the following clubs for their donations and continued support:Exmouth F.D.C.Bideford F.D.C.£50£50Totnes F.D.C. £100Sheila ChappellAccordion,Melodeonand Concertina Salesand RepairsAll types ofTuning and Conversions,Straight or MusetteIn stock:- 48 &72 BASS PIANOACCORDIONS, D&GMELODEONS,48 BASS B, C, C#Ridgeway, Scrapton Lane, Wadeford,Chard, Somerset, TA20 3ASTel. 01460 65159TORQUAYFOLK CLUBEVERY 2NDTHURSDAY IN THE MONTHTHE CROWN &SCEPTRE2, Petitor Road, St. Marychurch, Torquay8.00pm14th Aug Singers &Musicians Night11th Sept Singers &Musicians Night9th Oct Singers &Musicians Night13th Nov Singers &Musicians NightFloor singers and musicians always welcomeContact Anne Gill 01803 29042715PDF created with pdfFactory Pro trial version www.pdffactory.com
