SarahNash	50th and last Sidmouth festival? (233* d)	RE: 50th and last Sidmouth festival?	17 May 04
Practical stuff then: 1. Budgeting to assume that you will get a certain number of spontaneous bookings just doesn't make sense. I'm sure this was factored in to keep the ticket price down, but it seems to have come back to bite the organisers where it hurts. This should be kept out of the main festival budget and kept as profit. That way, you don't make a huge loss if people don't turn up on the day because of the rain. 2. So the contingency fund was wiped out in 1997 and no-one did anything about it? This seems somewhat odd to me, but I guess we're stuck with it... A lot of people go to Sidmouth though. If everyone gave £10 to a fund, the money would be easily raised. I did post thoughts to this effect on the BBC board, but it got removed...must be radical then. Cheers BFB
