include the cabaret related notices of paid up members, realities such as 
mis-delivered email or the timing of submissions may affect what gets 
published in a particular edition.
 
Your music related submissions must be made to:

We reserve the right to edit, and determine the inclusion of, all 
submissions.
 
It is the responsibility of the person submitting the information to proof 
read the submission for spelling and correct logistical information.
 
We will continue to list, free of charge, upcoming events by out-of-town 
performers.
 
The newsletter update goes out on every other Wednesday. Please send your 
submissions (to dccabaretnetwork@hotmail.com) no later than the Sunday 
before those Wednesdays (preferably sooner).
 
Inclusion in the newsletter does not signify a recommendation or endorsement 
by the Network.
 
We do not post events previous to the date of the newsletter.
 
We do not post notices for events we know to be sold out.
 
If you have any questions about our listing policy, please contact us at 
dccabaretnetowork@hotmail.com or through our website 
www.dccabaretnetowork.org.
 
 
 
 
 
POLICY REGARDING EDITS TO SUBMISSIONS PUBLISHED IN MULTIPLE EDITIONS OF 
NEWSLETTER
We gladly publish notices of paid up members in multiple editions of the 
newsletter. If you have a notice published in the newsletter, and the date 
of the event will carry the notice into subsequent editions of the 
newsletter, check your information frequently and verify it is correct.
 
We understand that sometimes plans and arrangements change. If you have a 
notice currently published in the newsletter, but need to update or change 
the information, re-submit your notice IN FULL (exactly as you’d like it to 
appear in the newsletter), including the changes, to
