Announcements and Music for Oct 18th

AGM agenda and background documents were emailed to all members last week. Please let us know if you didn’t receive a copy. Repeating my earlier comments: If you would like an item added to our agenda or have questions or concerns you would like raised, please bring it to our attention no later than the end of rehearsal on Oct 18th. This will allow us time to research the issue or plan accordingly. Please note that we don’t intend to print and distribute these documents the evening of our AGM. If you wish to have a hard copy to refer to we ask you to print and bring along your own copy.
