....or something close to it. This has been racking my brain since I started this tribe. Why we don't have a little get togeather where we as BBTBD get togeather for a few days and dance and whatever. I don't know all the details but if you're thinking we should share your ideas. Maybe we could make it possible.

    Absolutely! And it'd be great to have "costuming" be one of the workshops...since being a Goddess-sized BD proves to have its own costuming dilemmas. :)

        Well, If all works out with me and I end up moving into this live/work warehouse situation, i'll have PLENTY of room to do it there... until then- where would it be?

        SOOOOOOOOO down for this idea though.

          Well after a long talk with my mother who is VERY supportive on the whole idea and wants to help. She and I are going to look into our beautiful Lake Geneva. Its ideal not to mention the mid-west is a lot cheaper. Since she sees its something i'm very passionet about she's going to help me develope the first ever Big Beautiful Belly Dancers......whatever. Haven't came up with a name yet. So if anyone has any input on what we should have feel free to say so. I'm looking around at resorts in the Lake Geneva area, not to mention affordable times to have it and space. Somewhere we can have a stage set up and do performances and a area to do workshops. I'm also trying to find a time where it doesn't interfere with other bellydance events that may be going on that you all may want to go to. Gosh my brain is working a mile a minute!!!! This is so exciting!!! So I'm hopefully looking into the next year.
          As I said give me ideas of what you may want in this and i will write it down and be sure to keep it in mind.
          What type of worshops and who would be willing to teach it?
          Feel free to put in any helpful input.

            This is such a cool idea! schedule/time-wise - are you thinking in the summer? During the week? On a weekend?

              Well mid-week is cheaper for rooms here. I wanted summer because Wisconsin weather is so unpredicable. Maybe three or four days just before summer hits and the prices sky rocket or after in fall when the prices have gone down. I look at this because I want as many of you lovelies to join in as possible. So it would be week days not weekend.

      I'm with all of your help am trying to make this very rememberable! If it all runs as smootly as i hope we can make it yearly! I want to make all my fello dancers happy and make this fun. I think I found a resort thats perfect including room prices. I will be going to spend a couple of days there sometime in July to look around and talk to the staff and see if i can get a discount for us. But the land is beautiful and the rooms are all suits with kitchens and you can order groceries and they will have it waiting for you in your room when you arrive. So to cut on cost you can get roommates. So i'm going to check it out and see if this is it but when I seen it I fell in love. Oh and they do have a spa if you want to know.
      So this is my top choice! Fingers crossed!!!
