AGM 2020 - Notice to members
Notice is hereby given that the 3rd Annual General Meeting of Dartington Community Choir (reg. No. 1172585) will take place in the form of a webinar on the free platform Zoom on Monday 2nd November 2020 at 7pm.
Due to the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, the Committee of Trustees has taken the decision that attendance at the choir’s AGM will not be permitted in person. The AGM will take the form of a virtual meeting on Zoom. Voting will take place in advance of the meeting by way of an email/postal ballot.
All the information for members to consider, as well as instructions for joining the meeting, have been sent out via email.
Rehearsals
Our rehearsals this autumn will continue to be online, using Zoom (details will be emailed to participants). Click here for some tips on using Zoom.
Simon is using Koor as the basis of each session, and you can also use it to learn your part between rehearsals. See the Rehearsal Aids page for details of how to do this.
Friends and non-DCC members are welcome to join in our online rehearsals; the fee for the term is £50. Please email us at membership@dartington-community-choir.co.uk if you would like to sign up.
The start and end time of each rehearsal will vary depending on which section you are in - see email announcements for details.
