VFMC are delighted to be transitioning back to live events in halls. We will carefully follow all government health directives including limiting attendance to fully vaccinated people, and limiting numbers according to density limits. Please check event details on this web site before attending in person. We will update details of specific events as quickly as possible.
We anticipate that some people will remain cautious about attending public events. We will continue to support our audiences and participants as best we can by continuing Zoom on-line access to our events while there is demand. We recognise that this is only a second best option. Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.
Annual General Meeting 2023The Club's AGM will be held on Sunday 18th June 2023 from 2.30pm at Ringwood East Senior Citizens Club. A quorum of 15 is needed to conduct a valid meeting so it is important we get the numbers. You can attend in person, or by Zoom, or by filling in a proxy form and have someone else represent you. The meeting will elect office bearers, committee members and other roles in the club. There are also three resolutions that have been submitted under Other Business. All meeting papers and reports are on the website. Click the Full Details button. After the meeting refreshments will be available plus a bit of music making. So bring your instruments along. Hope you can make it. Ringwood East Senior Citizens Hall Melway ref. 50B8

This will be a hybrid session - in the hall and on Zoom
A 'Round Robin' session is for singing, playing, reciting or story telling. We all take turns to perform in a supportive atmosphere, or you can just watch and/or join in as you wish. You may suggest an item for everyone to join in. Audience welcome.

Festival sweethearts Sarah and Silas play folk roots music. Their love, skill and connection shine through exciting dueling fiddles and sweet vocal harmonies which dance to the strum of a ukulele and the beat of a drum. Their catchy original songs and tunes will move your feet and warm your heart..

VFMC Vaccination Policy To safeguard the health of our members, our audiences, our performers and the population in general, the VFMC committee have decided that when we are able to return to live, in person events at our venues, admission will be restricted to persons who are fully vaccinated against the COVID19 virus.
This means that everyone can attend a VFMC event secure in the knowledge that everyone at the venue has been fully vaccinated. We will also expect everyone to comply with all other health directives that are in force.
When we are able to resume on-site events, VFMC will continue, for some time, to offer Zoom attendance as an alternative for those who cannot or choose not to attend in person.
Please monitor this web site for details of forthcoming events as the situation may change rapidly. We will post any changes as soon as we possibly can.
Obviously we intend that regular VFMC Sessions, and Concerts, and Dances will be maintained as normally as possible as the virus continues its course. All seem to agree that making music in the company of each other is preferable to soloing alone at home, and the Committee is keen to get back to meeting at the halls when we feel it is entirely safe to do so.
The VFMC Committee are well advanced in preparing CovidSafe plans which are published on this web site. We have tested the technology for online Zoom access at the halls so people can continue participating in VFMC Sessions and Concerts remotely, from home or wherever you happen to be in the world on any Tuesday night.
