Kent is now in Tier 3.
The treatment for those with the virus has improved, if we are unfortunate enough to need hospital treatment we have a lower chance of dying than earlier in the year.
We are still some way from resuming normal dancing activity. The first doses of a vaccine are about to be distributed, but with the need for two doses and a slight delay to gain immunity,
the first people will be protected by mid January and the rest of us will follow on behind them.
I have received an updated diary which you will find here.
Please do not assume events scheduled will happen because the Diary does not say they are cancelled. Not everyone lets Nigel know when they have decided they cannot hold their event.
You will see a number of changes on the website. These changes are partly because KASS has been made aware that they are using copyright images in documents on the website without appropriate licensing. This oversight is expensive and I have made changes to remove any material I think may be suspect.
The website and KASS is not responsible for the content clubs ask us to publish on their pages so please be very careful with any material you use.
The Thanet Caledonians and the Isle of Thanet pages have been updated
The Newsletter archive is no longer available on line. If you want a copy of an old newsletter please ask the secretary.
After serving KASS for 10 years Jane and Helen stepped down as Events coordinators at the AGM in 2019. If KASS events are to continue in 2021 and beyond new coordinators or a new coordinator must take on this role.
If you can help please contact the secretary here.
At the 2019 AGM, the KASS treasurer Frances also stepped down and was replaced by Rhiannon.
At the next AGM there are likely to be further changes. Nigel the long serving Secretary, and Brian the Website manager have both expressed an intention to step down.
If you can help with either of these roles please contact the secretary here.
Please help everyone avoid arranging events on the dates you regularly use by by adding your dates to the KASS calendar 2 years in advance - Details can follow later.

Some clubs and individuals are willing to provide Scottish Dance and Music demonstrations within their locality.
