I just wanted to thank you for inviting all of us into your home to discuss the preliminary plans for the faire. I hope that all of us came away with ideas to make this year's event even more of a success than last year.

We touched on most of the important points: venue ,theme development, casting and entertainment, concessions, vendors, marketing, and logistics. That is quite a boatload of tasks to be undertaken by our gracious host so I hope that everyone who is able to devote resources to aiding Shannon in this endeavor does their part. If we all assist her on this, this venue will grow and prosper. This will, in turn, benefit all that have gotten involved during the fledgling development of what's turning out to be a faire with it's own uniquely appealing theme and atmosphere.

I'll see you all a the next developmental meeting... and any subsequent casting and plot meetings as well.

Doug

    Thanks Doug, (and Diane), for coming to the meeting. It was great to have you! Your ideas were a big help and your offers of help, too. :)

    I got my fundraising book today and have already torn through 2/3 of it. The information is very useful and easily applied even for those who, like myself, don't like asking for money. We'll be discussing this at the next meeting. I have a big idea but I need to wait until I hear back from a certain merchant before breeching it with the group.

    Thanks to all of those who came. As we discussed, for those who couldn't make it, we'll probably be on-site for the next meeting. I'll double check with the owners first but I know they said they had some wonderful ideas, too.... just like last year. :)

    Lots to think about, I already spoke with two people today about things they've been mulling over since last night. It's so nice to see everyone so excited again, so nice to have support!

    I'll talk to you soon, please keep brainstorming, I'll also be chatting with Will and seeing what his process is and then we'll keep proceeding. Have a great day and thanks again!
