Present: Martin, Simone, Tove, Mirja, Stephen

Front of House

Tove- introductions, main duties as FOH coordinator.

How to manage FOH within VA meeting as not everyone is interested in both parts.

Split meeting- might be difficult to have 2 meetings in the same meeting, some people would like to contribute to both.

All in one meeting- AP fatigue and boring for both groups as non pertinent matters will need to be discussed.

FOH stuff should have separate meetings and focus should be on action days. To make the building exciting and looking great.

First meeting to discuss stuff on Sunday 05/04/2009 10am

AP- Tove to post details to BB

Tables- repaint tables, keep some, get folk who are interested to make new designs
chairs- free chairs available, Tove to look into to see if still available and good.

Funding Opportunity

Stephen sent round the draft for the app, please have a look and make suggestions.
AP- martin to look out images for application.
AP- Simone to ask Emi about any images she has of previous shows.

AP Stephen to look into the list as see if there is anything suitable.
