Subject: [Puptcrit] Future festivals


A year ago, a"Festival Study Committee" was formed in PofA and its 
mission was to evaluate the status of PofA festivals and make 
recommendations for the future.  A taste of the 6-page final report 
was published in the PofA Playboard, but for practical reasons, the 
content had to be severely truncated.

There were fifteen members on the committee: Alice Rhodes, 
Christopher Hudert, Drew Allison, Jean Hasselschwert, Jim Hammond, 
Jody Wren, Joyce Berty, Mark Levenson, Mary Decker, M'el Reum, 
Michael Nelson, Monica Leo, Paul Mesner, Steve Abrams, and Marsha 
McGee, chairperson.  We worked via email and almost all of the 
committee members participated in the discussion.  The final report 
was written by Marsha McGee and approved by the committee members 
before it was submitted to the PofA trustees last January. I think it 
was a very fair synopsis of all the viewpoints that were expressed by 
the committee members.

I wish this thoughtful report could be more widely disseminated. I 
would love to publish it on Puptcrit, but it's probably too long. (Is 
there a limit?) If anyone wants a copy via email, just send me a note 
(marydeck-AT-earthlink.net).  I'd be happy to email a copy to you.  I 
asked Marsha today about publicizing it to Puptcrit, and she thought 
it was a good idea.  So, come and get it.  -Mary Decker
