A suggestion for the new committee.
The Tamworth Poetry Reading Group have run the Golden Damper and Blackened Billy competitions at the Festival for the last 25 years. This year they called it a day and the ABPA will run it next year.
How about an event during the festival where thanks is given to the group, with as many past winners as can be assembled reciting their winning poems.
Before I ever heard of Bush Poetry there were many of our now established performers who got their start on stage at these competitions.
Just a thought
I am happy to volunteer to help.

G'day Peter,
A great idea and whilst I'm on, an overdue CONGRATULATIONS for all your performance successes this year - too many to mention individually. It is great to see you doing so well and it is all well deserved.
Regards,
Brenda Joy and Hal
