It was agreed that the 10th Anniversary of the village hall would
not be on the 18/19th September.

are involved.

minutes) The video was shown in the Abbots Mitre with a fish and

Treasurer’s Report:
The Accounts are with Ian Brain being audited. The profit for “The
Wind in the Willows” may be only £500 after expenses for hiring
the Village Hall. The Committee agreed a monthly statement from the
Village Hall would be much more acceptable. The account should be
detailed. Richard suggested that the cost of the tickets should be
more, perhaps £10. Wendy is to ask the Village Hall to give us an
itemized bill. Maggie, Richard and Angie will meet after the AGM to
decide how much to pay the Village Hall.
On
the 24th April there was £5,850.83 in the bank, and £19.17 petty
cash.
AGM details and
procedures: Jim Duffy returned the Insurance details. He concluded
we are over insured due to inflation of the Premium. The new
committee will need to look at this as soon as possible. An
invitation needs to be sent to every member with a form for members
who wish to stand for office. New subs will need to be colledted
from then. All the Committee retire at the AGM, and a temporary
Chairperson should chair the meeting. The election of a new Chair
and 9 other members is then carried out.
BBQ Date and Venue:
Richard and Debbie offered to host the event, but it was felt that
they might not have enough room. Sally and Andy Hawke offered the
18th July, but this is not suitable, so 11th July has been decided
on. Nicki and Ian will supply the tent, further details to be
agreed at a later date.
Official
opening of the new stage: No date has been agreed. After the
production on the 18/19th September, the players have been asked to
do some small sketch. This was discussed, but no conclusion was
reached. The quote for the new curtains is for just under £4,500
minus the new curtain track – they will take 2-3 weeks to make.
They are to be asked to come and measure up, but it was felt that
the gantry may need to be in place first. It was agreed that
although we would be prepared to pay for the back and flats
curtains, they will be the property of the Village Hall. There was
discussion about the colour of the carpet that will be on the stage.
Any other business:
Dave asked about scenery for Confusions. It was agreed to have a
meeting on 27th May for Props review. Angie will continue to be the
Treasurer for one more year. There has been a letter from the
Village Hall Committee regarding storage. It was agreed to do
Confusions on the Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. There was a
vote of thanks to Maggie.
Date of next meeting:
AGM on 3rd June 2009 at 8.00p.m. in the Durnford Room of the
Village Hall.
Jim was thanked for
hosting the meeting.
