September 1988

About time, I hear you say. Well, as you can see even our schedules fail sometimes. Indeed, it has been most gratifying to have had telephone calls wondering why there has been no magazine. The answer has been simple. Most of our usual crew have been away at odd intervals and we have been unable to all come together to get ENCORE to you.

Subscriptions from general members of the public have been overwhelming, to the extent that we will require a constitutional change at the next AGM to permit magazine subscriptions only. At present we have a few problems with late memberships which, of course, all now expire in February. A diffrent category will have to be established therefore for the coming year.

I am greatly surprised at the volume of mail which is being redirected from our old adress, particularly from within our own membership! Please advise your secretary and amend your mailing list because the mail redirection is being discontinued!

The Secretary and I travelled to Bordertown for the South East Drama Festival recently and I will endeavor to give a detailed report next issue.

For those of you who have taken the trouble to read thus far, this will be my last editorial for ENCORE. My commitments are such that I can no longer afford to spend as much time as I would like and, if I continue, the magazine and the Society will suffer. Thank you for your continued support, and goodbye!
