Sonz of Acworth Halloween 2k7



This party is going to be awesome, and we are working hard to make it more than just a house party with everyone drinking keg beer. We need sponsors and we need those people who give to help us promote it, organize it, and throw it.

I have written a rough budget:

I have written a proposal of what we think we'll need as far as money, and we have decided to bring 10 or 11 people in as co-hosts / investors. These people will make this event possible and will get a good chunk of their money back if not all of it.

Here read this rough draft:

Hello and thank you for investing in this event and helping make it something badass. Something more than just another house party with keg beer.

minimum 100 dollars investment.
suggested 110.

will pay for the following:

$200 Liquor
$300 Kegs (3)
$200 Adult Rated Moonwalk
$150 Performers (fire dancers, firebreathers, jugglers and/or mimes)
$200 Decorations and Lighting
$50 Lee-Way
$100.00 contribution to the off-duty cop to handle traffic and ward away any other possible police. (the remaining 200 will be paid by our wealthy politician neighbor / co-host.)

The 10 to 12 investors will of course partake in all of this for free and will also be given close-knit organizational roles; as well as "say so" in the planning, scheduling, and ideas of what to buy. These people will also be given positions early in the party to help people arrive in an organized manner, post signage, announce events, relay party rules and messages to arriving guests, and most importantly collect a five dollar cover charge from non-investing guests and non-performers. This five dollar cover charge will be collected into one lump sum the next day and equally divided between the investors. We need your to help make this an epic event. I estimate that the worst case scenario will be that you get 50% of your money back and the other 50% went to a great cause.

So far we have a confirmed $700.00 so we're well on our way. The first donation of $50.00 cash from Josh Clayton is sitting in "The jar," right now.

We have to act fast though so we can be sure that everything is booked in time.

Calling all Sonz of Acworth -- we should all get together at a bar or something this weekend so we can setup a rehearsal /planning schedule between now and the event.

Peace.
