Oriental International Bellydance Festival

Hello everyone! (I bet you thought I forgot about this)

Things are shaping up for next year's big event! Here's the update:

It will be held Saturday, July 18, 2009 at the Wessman Arena in Superior, WI. Dancers will stay in one of two beach houses in Duluth, MN. The UWS dance studio will be used for the workshops.

The festival is only going to be for one day to cut down on costs, but dancers should arrive Friday morning and leave Sunday (accomodations will be available Fri-Sun).

The last thing I am deciding is where to hold the welcome dinner; a dinner cruise, a rotating restaurant overlooking the city and water, or a place right next to the water with wonderful food.

Let me know your thoughts/ideas/hopes/what have you! There will also be vendor space available.

Brea, what happened to Scotland - or did I dream it?

You mean my going to school in Scotland? That is Oct 2009. I can't recall if I'd thought about having the festival there, but that would have only been if I'd graduated in time (which I didn't).

I am also renaming this festival. I am thinking about calling it the Arabian Nights Bellydance Festival. Thoughts on that?
