Huntingdonshire Music School Association - Huntingdonshire

Recognising the social side of t’Internet which suits us down to the ground - as we’re a pretty social organisation - I thought it might be an idea to create a Huntingdonshire Music School group on Facebook. Everyone has their favourite apps, sites and ways of using the technology so it just seemed sensible to provide those with a Facebook account (seemingly almost anyone of any age nowadays) with a way to keep up with us.

As with all the Facebook groups it provides:-

• a’wall’ on which to place short comments
• discussion topics
• a place to see forthcoming events
• a place to upload photos and videos associate with the music school

Please have a look and, if you want to take part, join!

There is now a Huntingdonshire Music School Group on the Flickr photo-sharing site. This will enable members of the group (once approved) to be able to upload their pictures of the people and events that are associated with the music school. It also means that all the usual Flickr features are available such as commenting, discussions as well as the able to see the photos arranged on a map (if the geographic co-ordinates have been set for the place where the picture was taken).

Huntingdon Community Radio has been broadcasting for short periods of time under temporary licenses for 13 years now. In fact during the run up to the Big 4-0 (the 40th anniversary of the Huntingdonshire Music School) two of us were interviewed on air about the music school and the musical daftness we get up to.

They will be applying for full-time license from OFCOM - the last time a full-time license will be advertised for this area for some time. They need support to be able to apply for this additional capability for Huntingdonshire.

There’s a public meeting on Wednesday 1st October 2008 at 7pm at the George Hotel in Huntingdon to try and get support. Please turn up and show support as this benefits not only us in the music school but everyone else in the area covered (St. Neots, St. Ives, Godmanchester and Ramsey). If you can’t attend then you can listen live online through your browser if you point it at the home page for the radio station (below).
