I will definately need some help, I just don't know with exactly what yet because I'm waiting on phone calls and still hashing out plans. I will need a bit of help promoting this event, that's for sure. I'm planning on having about 300 people, I maybe have a head count of 40 so far. Once the flyers are done n printed, I'll pass some along to ya!
One big help I will need is a rough head count. If you'll be there, how many others you'll bring, etc, so that I can plan for the appropriate amount of food/drinks. Everything will be free, although to cover costs we will be setting up donation jars, have a raffle, and sell 50/50 tickets.
I"m waiting for my permit for the pavilion to get here, hopefully it will be #12, lakeside, so PRETTY! I can't wait to see the park in fall, it will be so amazing!
Can't wait to meet up with you and all the other amazing hoopers this area has! I"m so excited!

Sure, I got a few Large (full sheet) flyers to put up in parks, gyms, or bars that hoopers chill at, (at least here in greensburg, dunno the pittsburgh situation). I printed one half sheet today, I need to make some color corrections because although it looks good on screen, print is a whole different matter! I got some weird low quality photo paper, and I'm printing front and back, but the back side seems to bleed out. Oh well, the schedule isn't TOO important. It's most likely going to change a little bit anyway.
I'm only printing a total of 150 half sheet flyers, how many do you think you could get rid of?
Also, I'd hate to sound like a greedy asshole, but because the space, food, n everything is free, I'd appreciate if no one was vending there, so I can recoup costs (like$700) by sellin hoops. If you could spread that by word of mouth with the flyers, that would ROCK. I didn't think it was appropriate for the flyer. I know it'd be hard to sell anyway, cause everyone probably has their own hoop, but they will be cheap!
Do you have an address for me to mail your flyers to? (send it to me on a personal message)
Thanks so much! Can't wait to meet you and hoop it on down!

I had an idea for this, but I am not sure exactly how it could go about...I was thinking it'd be cool for everyone that is coming to send ahead a song/mp3 that they like to hoop to...then for a minimal donation (to help your costs!) get an mp3 (to fit more songs, as opposed to a 80 min. limit) disc copy of all the songs people contributed...could be a cool way to get more hooping music!

Well if I don't find a DJ, I figured I'd load up an ipod with crazy hoop music, so if you wanna send me an mp3 that would be cool. I'm totally open to that. I was having a conversation about what I should do for music, and bouncing ideas around with becky, cause I'm sure no one wants to listen to Bassnectar ALL DAY LONG.... :) I"d be pooped!

Sounds like a good time and I have the day off so I would love to join in. I have many great memories of Mammoth Park growing up and I've been wanting to hook up with some fellow hoopers. I'm new to the hoop so I haven't had a chance to get out much yet.

This whole event is for people just like you! I'm so excited for it. I'm trying to plan a road trip to dc the day before to see the premiere of the hooping life.... if my car wasn't such junk I wouldn't be worried about it... but when you have a car from 1989 it's sure to be expected! This world hoop day is going to be freaking great! I'm still planning out all the food and everything, and going to have to start a collection, maybe found an AWESOME Dj, (if he can do it), and it seems like everything is falling into place. Can't wait to meet you and hoop it up!
