I don’t like to think of this as the Autumn Programme so I will refer to it as the Late Summer Programme.  It will remind us that there is still the opportunity to have some really warm days even into October so fingers crossed. 

 

Thank you to everyone you hosted an event on the last programme and, of course, a big thank you to all those that came along and supported the group.    

 

The planning meeting is always a very important date on the quarterly programme as the group is member driven.  Without members suggesting and hosting the events, the group would not be a success so please put the 21 October 2009 in your diaries now.  We look forward to seeing you all with your ideas.  Alternatively, if you would like to host an event or need more information, please contact me.

 

This group website continues to be popular with our members.  It has photographs of the previous events and has all the information of the current programme.  For confidentiality reasons the telephone numbers have been removed from the programme but if you are interested in an event and have lost your programme, please contact me for more information.. There is also a Stop Press box on the first page where Richard posts any late meeting announcements, and an associated email group you can join for late postings to be sent direct to you.

 

I look forward to seeing you at future events.

LATE SUMMER PROGRAMME 2009

 

Please let your host know that you are attending an event and, in particular, please book by the specified dates as late comers may be disappointed.  Events may be cancelled if you don’t book in time.

If you enjoy dancing, then join Sue at Dorchester Town Hall and watch maestro Eduardo Bozzo from Buenos Aires demonstrating the Argentine tango.  Apparently it is something that will amaze you.  Sue will be on the door and if you mention Fulcrum, then you will get in for a small donation (50p).  Contact Sue for more details.
