Hello all,
Please fine attached minutes for the EGM.
Action points/points of change that I've picked out:
1. Crawl organisers to continue to develop map as do more crawls2. Kate to become lead musician and get us organised for different people playing- can consider different tunes etc.3. Focus on getting everyone up to speed on details of Piccadilly and getting us all dancing confidently and the same. Keep trying to dance out in the summer and in front of lots of people4. Everyone to learn Westerhope so can keep dancing out5. Open workshop on 25th April - Laura S. to publicise on social media (in conjunction with this Hannah elected as newbie liaison master...or something! Point of contact and encouragement for new members so Katherine can continue to teach without worrying about them too much6. Others happy to teach- Laura S. (Westerhope), Sinead, Becky. Have some practices where people teach while Katherine observes so she can help the teachers7. 18th April have a practice which focuses on interaction with the team/dance (for development of characters) from this try and expand on who would be good to learn character positions and how can make part of overall performance8. Constitution being changed to allow one signature rather than two for payments (this allows treasurer to pay in at the post office and for charges to be paid easier) Sue to send draft of this to be confirmed at next practice.9. Before each crawl to decide on someone/some people to focus on taking pics/films and then making effort to put on social media- create our own buzz!10. Laura S. to look into prices of badges and stickers and bring in designs11. Anyone with outstanding payments to organise with Sue/anyone who owes them money within the team.
Obviously if I've missed anything let me know!
Please remember to think about Open Morris article- even if you just have a witty sentence for them!
Have a lovely Easter!

I'm so sorry I didn't send these earlier- I think I imagined I had! Some interesting reading. Obviously if you have any thoughts please email Katherine/raise at next practice :)

4. Reminder to fill in the DERT survey!https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/DERT2016

If you want to write something for the Open Morris magasine please email the team so we aren't working at cross purposes and ensure it is sent by the 1st of April, it would be great to have something even if it's really short!
Ta, Becky
If anyone would like to respond to the request below, that would be fantastic. The deadline is 1st April.
Jen was at DERT with Mabel Gubbins. It isn't clear if she was actually dancing or just supporting. Whatever, it would be lovely if we could support her in her new role, as well as getting us more recognition in Open Morris via Dancing On!
Cheers

>> I’m the new magazine editor for Open Morris, and I’m doing a piece about DERT. OM are super proud of you coming second! There will be congratulations and pics in the article, but I also wondered if you would like to contribute? You could just do a few lines or a longer breakdown of your day, or whatever you fancy – but as I say we’re dead proud of you and would like to include something!

Hello all!
Sorry for slow actioning of this, there's been an awful lot going on at home (most of my life in boxes).
Please have a look at the EGM agenda for Monday, if there is anything you want to add please email me and I will add it on, if there is anything that doesn't make sense please let me know!
Meeting will be 7.30 onwards. It is also a celebration of how far we've progressed in the last year and how well we did at DERtTso also bring drinks and snacks! I'll be bringing the gin from DERT (I got a couple of quid from Hannah- if anyone had more than a couple of glasses a few pounds my way would be much appreciated but 1 or 2 consider it my gift!)
Please bring your diaries, I'm taking this opportunity to attack your summer availability! I'm hoping to have definites sorted.
Aaaand, if you paid for taxis or anything over the weekend and haven't had money back please bring this up at the EGM so we can make sure no-one is down financially.
To anyone who hasn't been in a while please feel free to come to the EGM! Even if you don't fancy saying much it's good to have as many people involved in the process as possible.
Ta all,
Becky
Hi Kids
This little card turned up for me yesterday! Thank you for being so lovely!!
I'm so bloody excited to see you all next week & hear more about DERT.
Mac is making an awesome recovery so I'll be back with a vengeance. :-)
What's the plan? Is it practice as usual or party, or practice & party?
Hope you're all getting a chance to rest & recover from DERT this week.
Hxxx
Hey, I believe anyone that was at DERT can fill in this survey about what we thought. this is potentially a chance to say anything that bothered you. I think it should be emphasised that a great job of making the day run smoothly was done!
Ta all,
Becky

Subject: [TR Committee] Tell us what you thought of DERT 2016!
Hello there
We hope you had a great time at DERT 2016. In order to help future organisers of DERT, we would like to invite you, as a participant, steward or judge, to complete our survey: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/DERT2016
Questions are deliberately open-ended so that you can tell us what you really think – and it's anonymous, too, which always helps!We hope that the survey won't take longer than ten minutes and we'd be really grateful for your input.
Thanks again!

This appeared on the Star and Shadow inner members page that I am privy to, I don't know where it came from or if it's available anywhere else so apologies if it's a dull repeat!
What I don't think we've seen is the trad individual marks. Looking at these I think we all need to give Laura a huge well done, we got extra points for the effort she put into the written element and ensuring we then performed it as closely to that notation as possible.
WELL DONE :)
