Budget, Venue, Fundraiser

By the time you read this, I hope to have heard back from our prime venue spot and up-dated this post to include the venue.

In the meantime, we now have to think about booking performers, securing an MC/host(s) & presenters, budgeting, and more.

Putting together a budget right now....then using one of the crowdfunding sites to launch the campaign so we can pay for all this. Soooo....

When working up the budget, we'll have costs for venue, physical awards, programs, paying fees for MC/host(s), hopefully for performers, insurance (if needed), merchandise (programs, really), security, transportation, catering, the inevitable "emergency miscellaneous"....WHAT ELSE???

I've produced shows in the past, but really want everyone's input anyway. You never know what else we could do if we just think about it before its too late!

Thanx!
