MCAA
It is still not too late to provide comments before the 4th December so that he can take ARC members' sentiments on the MCAA Concert to Alastair Crombie. It was a very positive experience so bouquets, brickbats, suggestions on improvement and not just criticisms.
We continue to owe Alastair much thanks for his work with MCAA on our behalf.
From Rick Dresser
London gig
As you all know a sub-committee has been formed to open lines of communication with the London Welsh Organising Committee as well as other participating choirs in our region, or perhaps more precisely within our Continental Group. The purpose of the communication is to iron out as far as possible any confusion, difficulties, concerns or other issues the travelling members may have.
This includes accommodation, travel and activities associated with our venture. We are also seriously involved in repertoire and practise requirements.
Protocol dictates that all communication must be through the sub-committee which reports on a regular basis to the choir committee on all things London.
The sub-committee consists of: Rick Dresser, Max Brennan, Keith Jones, Frank Bergersen, Keith Brent, Des Grayson, Ian Culloden & Wal Cooper. Please feel free to raise any concerns you may have with any of us.
It is our intention to address members concerns as thoroughly as possible. We will call a special meeting early next year for all those intending to travel or have not yet decided or are just interested.
From Graeme Trompf
