Audf Finals in Armagh

Dick Mills of Belvoir Players has booked a coach to take enthusiasts to the AUDF finals in Armagh each evening during finals week.

The coach will leave the Belvoir Studios each evening at 6pm and return after the adjudication of each show. The return on Saturday evening will be a little later to allow for awards and celebrations afterwards.

The cost is £60 per person for the week and includes the entrance ticket for each show. That looks like a bit of a bargain as I believe the price of a entrance alone to single show will be £8.

Anyone who wishes to reserve a place on the coach should contact Dick as below. Cheques for £60 should be payable to R Mills.
