  5. The New SKF5 Barrie Upton –Events Director: The new SKF 5 • revamped to act as both a traditional SKF5 and a contract when: • the fee is less than £5,000 and … • the muster is ‘standard’ • now has terms and conditions as integral

  6. The New SKF5 Barrie Upton –Events Director: The new SKF 5 process Needs: • to be signed by organiser, unit CO, sponsor and your Regional Events Coordinator • logged in the Events Diary by the team’s administrator - Kath Bailey • the nominated black powder master (if required) to be informed

  7. The New SKF5 Barrie Upton –Events Director: SK5 Hyperlink The new SKF 5 process Needs: • to be signed by organiser, unit CO, sponsor and your Regional Events Coordinator • logged in the Events Diary by the team’s administrator - Kath Bailey • the nominated black powder master (if required) to be informed

  8. The New SKF5 Barrie Upton –Events Director: Words of warning • No SKF5, no event! • always be careful; verbal agreements can form part of any contract

  9. Regional Events Co-Coordinators Ian Hurst & Simon Wright: The Regional Events Coordinators • list is in Orders Of The Daye • the first port of call, as early as possible • will have access to the up to date events diary • should also be aware of other events at an early stage of planning and thus not yet in the diary • remember – they are there to help you!

  10. Regional Events Co-Coordinators Ian Hurst & Simon Wright: Models of Funding This year’s majors reflect the 3 models of funding currently used: • Blenheim – ‘traditional’ sponsorship • Wentworth Castle – part sponsored, part profit share, part contribution • Newstead – fully self (SK central funds) funded

  11. Regional Events Co-Coordinators Ian Hurst & Simon Wright: Non fee earning commemorative events: • we do want to do these • there is a budget, but … • … it is limited! • You need to talk to Ian Bailey as the budget holder

  12. Regional Events Co-Coordinators Ian Hurst & Simon Wright: Pricing • be realistic, but … • be confident in the product • don’t ask for too little, it’s easier to drop price than increase it • some suggestions: • quote ‘basic’ price • leave yourself scope to add extras e,g cannon

  43. What’s it for • As a Regimental Commanding Officers it is your job to arbitrate in disputes involving members of your regiment. • I was recently told “I didn’t know I had to arbitrate as a CO” • Sorry chaps YOU are the first line of problem solving

  44. What’s it for As a Regimental Commanding Officers it is your job to discipline members of your regiment

  45. What’s it for “I didn’t think I had the authority to do that” WRONG! In your regiment you are responsible therefore you have the authority to discipline your troops as you see fit. HOWEVER........

  46. What’sit for • If the person you are disciplining accepts your decision then.... No problem • If they do not accept the judgement you have handed down; then the SK D & C policy comes to your aid. • That’s what it is there for
