Why we did it

Bandied around at committee meetings (yes, we have them) are ideas to improve our club, maintain the music quality and generally get better at what we do. The discussions always come back to money. We aim to cover costs – musician fees and overheads – by charging just enough in entry fees and topping up with the infamous raffle. Under Fred’s careful stewardship the not-for-profit strategy is working as long as audience numbers hold up. So all is well and good, but we wanted to do something with a flourish to it, a bit of pazazz  even! John Clark had the idea for a CD. Primarily a fund-raiser, just as importantly, a CD would be a tangible celebration of our achievements over the 12 year history of the Club. So Fred, Jean and I (Richard) looked knowingly at each other and said “OK, John, great idea, perhaps you might like to make it your project?”. (Delegation is a special art). Undaunted, John did make it happen – and how! We owe him a big thank you.
