As e-mailed to me - though I new it was coming a week ago The Minch is a charming little village in the Cotswolds above Stroud. Low Key festival - but it will have a dance (and we like em round here) so it is a good foil for Alcester.

Hi Mr Red

Its John Mills hear emailing to let you know that under the umbrella of my charity
fund raising project Folk Events (UK) I am in the process of organising a midsummer
folk festival on June 16th 17th and 18th 2006 in Minchinhampton.

There will be music and song sessions, a ceilidh, morris and clog dance teams and it
is hope to include a mini beer festival as well! It is also hoped to have a campsite
available nearby.

At the moment I am working at getting funding and sponsorship which will determine
the programme and any money left over after all overheads and expenses will be
donated to charity.

As soon as I have any further information I will email you but it probably won't be
until the New Year.
