So the NEXT STEP for THE WORLD STEELPAN DAY is to secure the domain name (www.worldsteelpanday.org) and set up the website and then appoint a BOARD OF DIRECTORS ...

... they could follow this model set by https://weteachpan.org/about/ making GLOBAL OUTREACH a very simple process. But they need to have a SKILLED ADMINISTRATOR to handle CONTACTS from the outside.

The BOARD OF DIRECTORS should include SIMEON SANDIF

I am still amazed that people does do ALL KIND AH PRESENTATION on PAN and NOBODY doh ever talk about GLOBAL PAN MUSIC ...

I am convinced that they DO NOT UNDERSTAND the GLOBAL PAN MUSIC TING -- maybe that is why they don't talk about it.

Well ah never see PEOPLE EXPRESS SO MUCH LOVE FOR PAN in MY LIFE!!! All BEVERLEY RAMSEY-MOORE have to do now is to HOLD A BIG SUPER PAN ARTISTES CONCERT and she could pay off the 60 MILLION DEBT

 ... Surely, with future planning, all pan shows [could] be just as successful as this one. 

Well, Ingrid: I was thinking along the same lines. Roll the $75,000 into a BIG SPECTACULAR PAN SHOW some time between the one year anniversary in October and

So BEVERLEY read all that STUDIPNESS and she get SO BIG in she own HEAD -
