The draft events diary for the coming 15 months has been added to the Diary page. Note the following changes:
- District Practices
- Where possible, we are trialing holding District Practices in conjunctions with local tower practice nights. Times will be 7.30-9.00pm unless stated otherwise. If your own tower practice night is on the same night as a District Practice, please consider joining the District Practice instead on that night – it will only be once each year that a District Practice will fall on your practice night, and it will be a good opportunity to get out and about and help support other towers as well as help progress your own ringers.
- Quarterly Meetings
- Where possible, we are trialing holding Quarterly Meetings in the mornings rather than the afternoons. The hope is that this time allows people to still have most of their Saturday free after coming along, hence will hopefully encourage attendance.
- Call Change/Striking Competitions
- Despite having to cancel these the past 2 years, we are going to try again this year but hold them in the morning instead of the afternoon. It will also be a requirement for you to let us know if you are intended to enter a band for either/both competitions no later than 4 weeks prior to the competition date. If no entries are received by this time the competitions will be cancelled.
If there are any questions on the above, please let me know.
Doug.
Rochester District Secretary.
