Re: Behind the Scenes meeting December?

Would it be possible to start the meeting at 7.00pm Neil?

Or can you not get away earlier?

Re: it is possible to have grant for Gaelic festival 28 nov.?

I think giving the hall for free is a better idea than a grant.

When Gio began arranging this months ago, we were still in the grip of financial worries. These have receded a little bit now, and we are giving the hall out for lots of free Forest workshops now.
