Competition in Chicago?

[TheMachanga]

No, I decided it can't be at my school, somebody else has to do it.

Uhh well if it is sometime in May or June, I'd be up for it.

I think my mom wants me to go to NZ Champs in July because she wants to see New Zealand.

I could probably go, plus I could judge & scramble, I could also bring another friend who would judge.

This would be awesome! I would actually be able to come! I hope you find a venue

 

[TheMachanga]

I hope it's in the inner city area this time.

and now we have to wait...
patiently....

I suppose I could ask around campus, but I don't have much of a backing without any sort of club on campus.

You have KOII's backing and possible (probably?) Bryan's... all that we really need is a venue. But unfortunately, people willing to pursue a venue are all but nonexistent in Chicago.

In terms of organizer skills, you don't really need any. KOII and I can handle everything besides getting the venue.

What about Navy Pier?:rolleyes:

I've looked into it. If we're on the one stage, then the competition has a break every 30 minutes or something. If we can get a room on the back or something outside (with a backup location), we'd be good.

They don't respond too much to e-mail, so someone in Chicago would have to go and talk to them.

Do you have to pay for that? They have a HUGE indoor area which is used for conventions, car shows, winter wonderfest, and much more. That's the festival hall, which I doubt we can get because it may be too big. There might be other places to do it at there, maybe even outside.

I didn't get that much detail because they wouldn't respond to my e-mails.

Here is a photo of Chicago's millenium park concert area. It is very big and they do have a stage. It is outside, I'm not sure how much it cost but I'm sure we'll get a lot of attention if we did it there.

Again, the issue isn't finding a venue. It's finding a venue we can afford. I would say that concert area is almost overkill.

lol, I was thinking of my school, but the lunchroom is dark. The gym will be nice but my principal doesn't like stuff like that.

Don't hold your breath, but keep an eye out for something in late June or early July.
