VIP List

A proposal was put to the board by Clayton Perry at the meeting of 20th July to establish a standing list of invitees to our special functions like the Stomps.

The board thought this was a fabulous idea and should be implemented.

If you personally know of anyone who ought to be included in such a list, eg past members, politicians, astronauts, film stars, please send their name, email and postal address to the bulletin editor (peter @ canberradance.com).

Your proposal will be put to the board for consideration.
