Have you ever worked as part of a team that plans events like concerts? This is like nothing that I have EVER done before!! So I am kind of making this up as I go... but it seems to be working so far!
We have bands!!! This is the line-up so far:
- 4pm: Rebekah Stevens
- 5pm: J'aime Paine
- 6pm: Colin James Clark
- 7pm: Barry Szeto
- 8pm: J'ai
So things look pretty great, entertainment-wise! Tomorrow's missions include talking to The Oakville Centre staff to see if they have someone who can run the technical end of things for the big day, looking into food vendors, hopefully getting a few more henna tattoo artists and someone who can perhaps paint faces, and other smaller stuff. We are just about done with the process of finding a killer headlining band, so stay tuned!
I also need to talk to TicketMaster about sales. I wonder if it would be possible to get them to offer a deal like "buy 4 tickets, get 1 free"? Fingers crossed!!
REMEMBER TO MARK THE DATE IN YOUR CALENDARS!! Saturday August 17th, 2013. We get things rolling around 3pm at Coronation Park in Oakville (Lakeshore and Third Line)... come on out for music, food, kids' stuff, and a fantastic time! Support a great cause while having a great summer afternoon with your family and friends.
