POLICIES
REGARDING INCLUSION OF NOTICES
The DC
Cabaret Network is a small organization run on a 100% volunteer basis. We do the best we can with the resources and
information we have. It is our policy to include, to the best of our ability,
all cabaret related notices of our paid up members. Submission, however, does
not guarantee inclusion in the newsletter. Although we always do the best we
can to 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:
dccabaretnetwork@hotmail.com
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 the first of each month, with submissions due by the
25th of the previous month. Please send
your submissions (to dccabaretnetwork@hotmail.com)
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.
If you have
any questions about our listing policy, please contact us at
dccabaretnetwork@hotmail.com or through our website www.dccabaretnetwork.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 dccabaretnetwork@hotmail.com. In a separate paragraph, specifically point
out the changes that you made. We will
cut/paste your updated notice into the newsletter, calling attention to the
changes made. 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, and
we do not receive a new/complete submission (as stated above) with changes
specifically pointed out, your notice will appear exactly as before.
