Gerry, JohnH, Ken, Artworks 3pm quorum  satisfied, Kathy in the building.

Show and Tell included Johns spoken word schedule for 2011.

Ken found a local source for suitable cds to give away with memberships. Let’s go ahead with John’s idea for the welcome wagon. We could include colourful ticket noting a membership form, get cd with every membership. Lifetime membership also get a Free cd per year for 100 years. Eligible for one more 100 year renewal with birth certificate and picture id.

We should call out to the community for a cd drive this fall.

Steve has been thanked, John submitted a letter for the new members, Ken to find an editor, maybe ask Iain.

The clinic’s funding program was discussed. Ice Cream sales work.

Greetings to all conference attendees!

This years NCRC is going to be broadcasting on CKGI’s proposed 98.7 fm for the duration of the conference. As a result we are putting a general call out to all those attending, who might want to showcase some new music you just need everyone to hear, or a spoken word show that you feel would be relevant, or anything in between, we are going to be having a sign up sheet at the conference.

We will be broadcasting our currently running web stream: www.ckgi.ca/audio-stream/ when we don’t have scheduled programs and shows.

SO, bring your music, your diatribes, news voices and more!

Disclaimer: As we have a temporary licence to broadcast, all artists being showcased must give their permission to use their music for this purpose.

We are exempt from  the CRTC process under http://www.crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2000/pb2000-10.htm
