Our GB team is officially in. Apparently we are called BEAT. June is
so far away and yet so scarily close. I'm still adding to the rosters,
but in the short term I am hoping to get some brainstorming ideas
about what sort of booth you'd like to see. I'm excited about our
roster- I think we're a good collection of fun type people with some
high skill, and definitely not in danger of underage drinking.
Putting together a booth at GB can be done by one person. However,
putting together a kick ass booth requires collaboration. In past
years we've also had a big tent rental, but it wasn't actually used
much last year, so it might be better to do individual/small group
tents.
Major things that need to be taken care of for GB:
1) Booth Construction
2) Booth Games
3) Drink
4) Costumes/Uniforms
5) Transportation
6) Shelter
In the next little while, can you tell me what you'd most like to help
out on? What sort of ideas do you have for the booth?
My current notion is to take the BEAT name (which traditionally stands
for Bacon, Eggs and Toast) and do a BEAT it theme, picking up on all
the Michael Jackson things that defined our cultural identity as
children of the 70's and 80's. I found a drink called a "Thriller",
but it consists of Canadian Club, Orange Juice, and Ginger Beer, so
I'm up for more suggestions. We could do make your own new face, kind
of like Mr. Potatohead for real, in honour of MJ's many surgeries. We
could do a dance off. We could do other things too.
Booth construction ideas and game ideas are what we most direly need
in the short term since they will take some planning and time to get
set up. Costume ideas are also good.
Keep in mind we'll be in the woods and have to drive up our supplies.
There will be limited electric power there. So in the short term,
please let me know:
1) What you'd prefer to work on
2) Do you have a tent? How big?
3) Do you have a car? How big?
4) Do you have costume ideas?
5) Do you have drink/food ideas?
6) Do you have booth/event ideas?
I'll summarize what I hear about over the next few days. Also I'll hit
you up for team fees soon, but I'll try to get some more people on the
roster first. If you have friends who are awesome at frisbee then let
me know.
