News Update 2021

Posted on by
Good news on the Vaccine front of course, and although our venue, the V and A centre is currently closed, we have to look forward and hope for a bit of normality at some point, for all our sanities!

IN CELEBRATION OF THE LIFE OF LESLEY PARISH
We are currently planning a Charity Social Evening at the end of June, start of July, in memory of our dear friend Lesley Parish, this being the first opportunity we have had as a group to formally remember Lesley, and be thankful for all her numerous years of dedication to Hag. The evening will include a few songs from the Choir, a Quiz and a Raffle, and will be open to all members and their guests. We will have a retiring collection, and all monies will go to a charity in Lesley’s name, as nominated by her family. More details to follow of course.

DATES FOR HI-DE-HI
Well “Ho De Ho” campers indeed, as we can’t now put our show on in June with all this uncertainty, so the play will take our booked October slot. Third time lucky!
PERFORMANCE DATES
OCTOBER 8th, 9th, 14th, 15th & 16th
READ THROUGH MAY 25th, AUDITIONS MAY 27th & JUNE 1st

HAG ROCKS! CHOIR
In anticipation (!) we’ve booked the Victoria Hall for April 19th, in the hope we can all get back to the Monday evenings we are missing so much, even if it means reduced numbers on a rota system. More news as we have it.

MEMBERSHIP – A PLEA FROM YOUR MEMBERSHIP SECRETARY – SUE
After all that we have been through 2020 and now 2021 we are so grateful to our Membership for sticking with us through thick and thin (well thin mainly!). All the Membership Fees help to keep our Group afloat, especially when we haven’t been able to put on any productions or run the Choir. There are still costs that have to be paid, even if nothing is happening (certainly the story of 2020 sticking to COVID rules) money still goes out for rental of storage facilities, etc.
So THANK YOU each and every one of you who paid their subs last year. Now unfortunately, I have to ask you to support us again this year! If you want HAG to continue please, please renew your membership on 1st April.
