Matthew Roberts Sent: 06 September 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Subject: Re: Youth Festival, Qld High School Hello Peta, just finished a meeting with our school nurse and chaplain, and I have obtained more details and have a few questions. Do you have specific criteria to meet? - Is there an application form? We are looking for funding with the hope to have 3-5 local youth bands play a 5 song set each and a band from Town called 'Remedy'; plus any assistance with stage and sound set up. The day is maybe going to be called the 'Oakey Youth Festival' to be held on the 21st of April 2007 from midday - 8:00pm in the grounds of the Oakey SHS. The aim of the day is to - empower the youth of Oakey and educate them and their parents about contemporary youth issues and pathways for their futures provide real life experience for students involved have fun Let me know if you need any more details or certification from the powers to be. Cheers Matt Roberts response |

gilli Sent: 05 September 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Subject: RE: Light Up The Halls Hi Peta I just wanted to touch base to thank you for such an insightful and positive email, and to remind you of my artistry and music again. It's been a while. I am still based in Los Angeles, touring the States, but I do appreciate being kept informed on ARC activities. Attached is my updated epk. Not only a music artist (I was recently interviewed in Newsweek for my self-made success on the Internet), I'm also an actor and writer. Last month I ran a rock music camp for kids where 9-15 year olds played in a band, wrote a song, studied their chosen instrument, and end of week performed the song at a concert for the families. I also am President of Songsalive!, the non profit organization supporting and promoting songwriters worldwide, with the base in Sydney, and chapters all across the U.S and Canada. I wanted to also bring to your attention another artist, J.Walker (happens to be my partner), who is a spoken word artist. He is American but spent his childhood around different parts of the globe. What is interesting about him is he's also a counselor by day to at-risk youth in south central L.A dealing with various troubling home issues with them, and uses rap and lyric writing with them to connect with them (their "language" so to speak) and let them express themselves. He calls this Rhymecology and he works with rap music and basketball to connect with them over here. I have since researched that the Aboriginal kids also love rap music and basketball and so I see an obvious similarity with what J. is doing over here. Attached is info on him also. What interests me with ARC is for us both possibly come down, perhaps next year, and do tours of the outback schools. With a certain kind of funding, we could travel to schools in Central Australia and up north in N.T, running workshops in lyrics, theater and music,plus do performances. It's an idea only in concept form right now, but certainly something to ponder, and to propose to ARC. Anyway, ideas for now. Thanks for keeping me posted on your news.

Jodi Russack Sent: 05 September 2006 To: info@arc.au.com As discussed with you via phone, I am the newly appointed Youth Development Officer for the Yorke Peninsula in South Australia. The youth of all towns are screaming out for live performances. I would really like to be involved in your funding available to bring live bands to the Yorke Peninsula. Since I am employed by both Councils in the Yorke Peninsula, venues such as town halls will not be a problem. Regards, Jodi Russack response |

Katy Richards Sent: 04 September 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Hi I currently work in youth services and I help young people put on shows for young people in the area, this is funded by the Victorian governent and has been a huge success for all involved. As a result the local council have asked me to run more musical traning and concerts for the people of West heidelberg who suffer from economic and social disadvantage. There are also thousands of young refugees in this area that will also benefit from music programs. I am donating my time to seek solutions and find funding to run some music programs and events in this area. Is there anyway you can help the young people of West heidelberg? If you require any further information please do not hesitate to ask. I am committed to helping develop these young peoples future prospects. Kind Regards Katy Richards response |

Rural Youth Program Sent: 04 September 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Subject: Re: Eidsvold/Monto - Far NQ. Hi Peta, I do have two other venues in mind. Both which are smaller in size and will hopefully suit what you guy's had in mind.One is at the Monto Shire Hall. This venue is available at any time (providing it is not booked) at no cost to the Youth. The other venue is Munjurrum Hall in Eidsvold. Again there is no charge on this venues when it is a youth function. If these suit than please let me know.Regards, Melinda Priest Rural Youth Worker - Monto/Eidsvold response |

Rural Youth Program Sent: 31 August 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Hi Peta, sorry I haven't replied sooner. I however, passed your details onto a local resident in Monto who is planning on holding a concert in Monto. I wasn't sure if you could assist him as his focus was more at the whole community (as they are planning on selling alcohol at the concert). Well the venue I had in mind was Eidsvold show grounds. I haven't sought approval from the Eidsvold council as of yet. I was hoping to hold a huge Youth Festival for the district. I would also love to hold a concert in Monto, however, if the youth festival was in Eidsvold than the surrounding towns like Monto, Gayndah & Mundubbera would be able to attend. I think it would be cool to even invite young people from the coast over as well. Your know a coast to country theme. If you can help I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

McCallum, Jane (PPRHS) Sent: 31 August 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Subject: Question re funding Hi, I am the local health promotion officer and am part of our Rural health Team, that promotes well being via early intervention projects. We have a real issue in our community with rural youth decline.Following a recent forum held, one of the outcomes that the community thought would help our community, was to provide entertainment for our youth at local venues Earlier in the year we held an open air concert with a band. Prior to the band playing we had several local young musicians show case their music. We would like to continue to do this, however like all ideas it requires a lot of funding. Does your funding support such events? Regards Jane McCallum response |

Jay McDonnell Sent: 30 August 2006 To: info@arc.au.com Subject: RE: north qld thanks Peta. i'm waiting to hear about post-cyclone funding for a business recovery plan, and as i mentioned want to look at opening an all ages venue here at mission beach. i've got a hall in mind (it's "The Snakehouse" at an ex-crocodile farm) and would be able to negotiate some form of a lease on it. I did the first gig there on Friday, with Ghanaian band "Wala", and the Paradise Park Festival committee ran the bar as a fundraiser. is arc able to work directly with me, as a for-profit promoter, to put on regular monthly all ages gigs here in north qld? or do we need to go through the nfp (currently they take the bar and i take the door) we're looking at brisbane band "neighbourhood groove collective" for our next gig in november, who aren't on your list, but would love to talk about putting a program together for 2007. we're also planning a festival at the venue in september 07. i'd really appreciative some guidance with the production side of setting up the venue, what's the minimum i can start with and what i should be working towards ... the stage, the rigging, the gear, the acoustics ... (on friday we lined the hall with removalists blankets & sari's!) i've got good community contacts, and might be eligible for further assistance from state development if the business plan looks viable. it would be awesome if we could work together to put on some all ages gigs here, looking forward to hearing from you, thanks for your time, cheers ... jay Jay McDonnell - love jay productions Gigs & Events In Tropical Paradise www.lovejayproductions.com.au www.paradiseparkfestival.com response |
