Current highlights - details are under activities and past activities :

our next activity is a Pleasant Sunday Afternoon soiree at the Bentleigh Uniting Church, on 23 June. This will be preceded by a brief Special General Meeting, at 1.30 pm, to consider rule changes supporting the establishment of a Public Fund.
the Don Cowell Memorial Trust finals are being held on 6 July in the Armadale Uniting Church. For detail, including a list of finalists and booking info for this free concert, see the DCMT page on this website
our 2013 committee was elected at the AGM on 17 March. New to the committee is Treasurer Deb Elliott - welcome, Deb! Jill Ferris has taken on the role of newsletter editor, and also joined the committee; and Sue Sier is now the VRG Librarian.
For a full list of committee members, see the About tab.
You can now download our 2013 membership form, or complete it online. Subscription rates have increased by a modest $3 for the year, to help us meet increased costs. 2013 subscriptions were due by the end of March. See the Membership tab for details.
our library catalogue was updated in January 2013. New larger print and over 4000 items! The updated version is available as a downloadable excel file - go to Library Loan to download it.

Thinking about the future:

If you're interested in helping with the library, you might consider joining the library team? We are looking for an apprentice cataloguer to help Ruth Lewis... Do contact us at recorderplayers@gmail.com if you'd like to help.

Some longer term plans: the VRG is leading plans for a major recorder festival in Melbourne in 2015. For details, see the Recorders 2015 tab, which includes links so that you can put yourself on our mailing list, and complete a survey giving your ideas for the festival. If you're on Facebook, do visit the Recorders 2015 page, www.facebook.com/recorders2015, and join the conversation.

If you have suggestions for material to put on this website please contact us.
