Looks like we have a time and a place. Mt. Lebanon Bowling lanes, Oct 20, registration starts at 1:30, bowling starts at 2:00.

Now the fun really starts wink We've got only a few months to plan a major event. Tradmic and Superchill are already hard at work, finding sponsors and participants. A space on the SWAP website has already been prepared by our Webmaster Fluke (he's not just the 3 time Epic Duels Champ)

More info on specific tasks needing to be done, coming soon. grin

Okay, the paypal account thing is moving along. I got the SWAP account listed in a paypal account and just need to wait a few days to get the verification numbers happy Hopefully, by Tuesday, we'll be all set up to start taking registration for Geek Bowl.

w00t!

Registration info is up on the website. If you know of any non-SW fandoms that would be interested, pass this info along to them!

Our contacts so far:
Zombies
Battlestar Galatica
Buffy
Star Trek
Browncoats


Although we need to start spreading the word now, we will need to do another 'reminder' in early September.

indeed...

Who is going to bowl for the SWAP team/teams?

We know a person who has to do a senior project that is going to help out with this and working at the event.

We were hard at work last night in the Mt. Lebanon area trying to get food donation, sponsors, and teams. Alot of interest too, so w00t!

We're getting some flyers up before we leave for DC. Plan on hitting Ross, some places along McKnight, and the colleges.

happy

I got a booth free of charge for Ross Community day on September 8th. Mich and I will be dishing out S.W.A.P and geek bowl info. Please come if you can. There is so much fun to be had. Also my friends band Acidface is playing a show @Mr Smalls Sept. 7th and has offered to throw flyers and premote. They have a pretty big following so this is a big help. I will be at that event as well if anyone wants to join me. I have to steal Dlockes catch phrase..........."It's only fun if you come". grin

Yes, our Star Trek group is all signed up and ready to bowl. Of course I probably should have mentioned this before but I'm a really bad bowler.

In fact I'm so bad at it that I run the very real risk that I might be the only person ever to actually have Habitat For Humanity come and tear down my house for bringing such shame upon their name. worried

I believe that we now have two teams bowling, one Starfleet team and one Klingon team. Is anyone from your group or any of the other groups registered mentioned anything about whether they are or are not wearing costumes? I think a few of us are planning to wear costumes, but I don't want to be the only team wearing costumes.
