Dear Network Folk


1.�PROPOSED SECTOR CONFERENCE

We are returning to ACE,SE with an application for funding for a REGIONAL FOLK SECTOR CONFERENCE in the Autumn. hopefully October (after Tenterden)

Our Chair will be sending details about this out today.

VENUE
Can any member suggest likely venues close to the M25 and somewhere central to our rather large region!?
We would be looking for facilities as�
one larger room (max 100) hopefully with�suitable facility for a small�showcase in the evening.�
one smaller room for the breakout sessions�
on-site catering.

We had thought the Hawth in Crawley to be a good fit - but they tell me it's all booked up mid-October, an we want to have had this conference�
before the FAE conference in November.
This is, at the moment, still at planning stage - but I think the venue might be one of the hardest things to organise!

3. SEFAN'S CEILIDH CONSORTIUM PROJECT. AN UPDATE

We're sorry to say that a second WORTHING CEILIDH will not now happen under this grant's timeframe - but this has meant that we
are now able to put more on the table for the new OXFOLK committee and WOLVERTON Family Ceilidhs towards their last two dances of this season;�
and put a little money into the�Frittenden dance and Florida's future plans to mount some village hall dances.

We are extremely grateful to the Lottery organisers for allowing us to redistribute funds in this way.
