The Hurricane Hafli is on!!!
Sep. 1st, 2005 10:53 amExcellent news--I just heard from the Northeast Belly Dance Association that they can front the money for a hall deposit, etc. So I've reserved the Dilboy VFW Post in Davis Square for 4 hours on Sunday, Sept. 25. They have the whole day free, so I'm going to reserve it from 3-7, with the first hour for set-up. I'm a little scared about the bar minimum, so I encourage everybody to drink freely :)
So now, I need:
A. Dancers!
B. a PA, or speakers at the very least, and a multi-deck CD player. An actual DJ would be sweet, too.
C. miscellaneous items like a cash box, tickets, etc
D. Raffle items, if I don't need a special permit in MA (don't think I do)
E. Volunteers to do things like work the door, supervise the raffle, help dancers, etc.
F. Advice from people who have put on events like this before
G. Lots of support and encouragement ;-)
I'm thinking suggested minimum donation of $15 for admission--that seems reasonable to me, so I assume it would seem reasonable to most people.
I have such a roller coaster feeling right now, but in a very good way :-)
