[andy wooler]   what sort of role did this artistic director have? In our=

associations in UK, we tend to have unpaid administration staff (with the=

exception of the British Federation of Brass Bands).


After the Nationals this Easter, the VBL will no longer have a full time
administrator. The state government has rejected their application for
further funding. The state government also refused to fund the nationals
inspite of a reasonable submission outlining benefits etc.

[andy wooler]  it might be interesting to us here in UK  to see what kind=

of benefits were justifying the position previously



BE RELEVANT. If your organization is not relevant, it may not survive.
Don't let well intentioned amateurs run the band or your organization.
The band should be run like a business.
Get people involved who have the relevant business skills to advance
your band and the movement.


[andy wooler]  what a very true statement!
