It definitely doesn't do anything about ASCAP/BMI. ________________________________ From: Bev Young via Contra Callers <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2021 7:45 PM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: [Callers] Re: Caller's Insurance?
The National Folk Organization has liability insurance coverage for all members. Members can be individuals or folk organizations and you pay nothing additional to your membership fee. Here’s what their website says: The National Folk Organization and its members are covered by a general liability insurance policy. This coverage is a benefit of being a member and no application is necessary. Members wanting a certificate to show proof of coverage, or to extend coverage required of a venue, must complete a form and submit it to the NFO broker, Mercer Consumer, a subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan Companies. Several years ago I switched my caller’s insurance to NFO as well as our local Folklore Society (contra and English dances). Member fees are $30 individuals and $50 recreation/folk groups. I asked the president of NFO why the insurance was so inexpensive and he said it was because they rarely have any claims. I do not believe this would cover BMI/ASCAP. Bev Young, caller Missoula, MT
