Hey guys,
1. Just a quick reminder to say there is NO practice on Monday but some of us are going to
see Ffion and Laura play at the Green Note gig (on the sign-up sheet) which I believe Nick
has sorted tickets to.
2. Also PLEASE, if you haven't already, could you respond to the poll re. clogging. I
should emphasise for those who haven't been at practice for recent discussions that
this is not some weird drift into being a rapper and clog side. We are a rapper side but
for whole days of dancing where you have to entertain the same people for hours we want
some variety. We have people who can clog so we're hoping to build on that so that
they/anyone else who manages to pick up the skills can fill a slot. I have added to the
poll a 'not interested' vote-so even if you would rather die than clog you can
still respond at the link below:

3. I have confirmed with Rockingham that we will be going to Peterborough for their day of
dance on the 13th of September. We've got a good mix of people going but again, if you
haven't signed up please do!

4. During business last week we decided that due to Rockingham, York Festival of
Traditional Dance, and Faversham Festival weekends being consecutive we should choose two
to go to. The conclusion seemed to be Rockingham because it's close, we're forming
pretty good relations with them, and it's only a day in Peterborough and York because
it is the opposite! We thought a weekend away as a team for an event focussed on dancing,
including rapper, rather than a lot of the events we've done recently, would do us
good. We have a side but for a weekend it would be nice to have confirmations from people.
If we can confirm ASAP we can organise travel which the team decided will be subsidised in
some way, so don't let that put you off. If you are unsure due to price please contact
me or ideally Jo and we will start figuring the numbers. York is 6th to 7th September.
For those coming on Monday remember to bring kit as touch wood we can fit in the space to
do a little intermission entertainment!
Cheers me dears,
Becky
