02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
We aim to promote Scottish Couintry Dancing and Music to adults and children. Adult classes are held weekly in a local Church Hall for 15 weeks in the year under the auspices of a remunerated qualified teacher. In November primary schools in East Ayrshire District are invited to send a class, P5 or over, to a Children's Day of Dance (CDoD) in a local venue in Stewarton or Cumnock , with live music, at the Branch's expense. Volunteers and Dance Teachers assist in preparing the children and their school teachers to learn the programme of dances. The Committee and Office Bearers meet regularly to plan and organise annual events and the affairs of the Branch. There is a Christmas Party in December and an Annual Dance in April with organised programmes of dances and music provided by professional musicians which are ticketed and to which other dancers are invited to attend. We associate with other local RSCDS Branches. A formal AGM is held in June.
