Although there has been some discussion about various locations to hold Warpstock 2007, the Board desires to get the process in motion by setting May 10th, 2007 as the final date that we will accept formal proposals.
Teams wishing to bid on hosting Warpstock 2007 should submit a letter of their intent to host this event to: bids AT warpstock DOT org.
The workload of the Event team has been reduced by the Board taking on the responsibility of getting presenters and speakers, and the primary responsibility of an event team is arranging for and coordinating the physical facilities.
This proposal should contain a list of the individuals involved, the city or area in which the event would be held, and the suggested date for the event. It should also include the benefits of holding the event in their suggested location. The letter of intent may contain any additional information about the proposed bid that the team wishes to share. This letter does not need to be in great detail about the proposed event, but rather, a commitment from the group about entering into the bid process.
The Board of Directors will remain in close contact with the Teams throughout the entire bid process, including final site selection.
Now is the time to get your proposals in! The deadline for receipt of proposals is May 10, 2007. The Board will be making a decision about the Warpstock 2007 event on May 12, 2007.
