Brigstowe Village Band ; Plans for August/ September/ October

Dear Brigstowers

Even though the next months look uncertain steerers have made plans for  August/ September /Oct ; if necessary we will be prepared to amend/ cancel .

With optimistic spirit, we hope to run an ‘out of doors’ socially distanced rehearsal in line with regulations at the time.

For the rehearsal to take place  we need:

1. government regulations for amateur musicians to have been relaxed
2. decent weather

Sunday August 23^rd rehearsal. Long Ashton tarmac area between the Youth Hall and Main Village Hall.: NB Changed date due to caretaker availability at Long Ashton

Lyn, Chris , and Liz  will be there  from 1.30 to organise

This will be a session run by members (Laurel is taking a well earned break )  – but I will provide a practice list  from Laurel’s selection ,

On the day

NB Car parking will be as before

Toilets

Youth Hall – hand sanitizer, wipes and spray provided –  we have to undertake to clean after each individual use .

LACA will provide appropriate chairs:

Refreshments

Bring your own!

All social distancing measures current at the time will need to be observed

We have to provide

1. i) a list of names and emails of those who attend for track and trace purposes
2. ii) a risk assessment  ( from the Heath Safety Executive  )  I will make this available

Cancellation

We will cancel on Friday 21^stAugust if government regulations have not been amended after the time of posting

We will cancel by 12.45 on Sunday 23^rdAugust if we initially think we can go ahead but the weather is bad .  This will be posted on the website.
