ok let's do it!

i say Dec 17 and Dec 18, mornings from 10am-1pm. If we find some food vendors, maybe we can have food for sale, and just get coffee for attendees.

I really think we call this an official "Tribe supports Tribe" sale... orient it towards tribe members to come buy stuff made by fellow tribe members. That way we can include Crafty Vixens Pro members, might even get some bay area people.

I think this project needs a project manager and some task leaders: one for venue/location, one for coordinating with tribe, one for getting participating vendors, and one for marketing to tribe [free ads and postings and stuff, possibly to be coordinated with tribe]. the project manager would develop a project plan based on info from task leaders and help coordinate that each task stayed with the original project plan. three weeks to event seems do-able, but we do need a project plan like NOW.

project plan criteria:

objective: we have a few choices here. my ideal is to develop the first [of many] seasonal "tribe supports tribe" events. don't need to make money for organizing it, but we do want participating vendors to be able to make money. if the venue/location requires money, we will have to raise funds from vendors. we want to develop a basic "tribe supports tribe" event format that could be repeated in other popular tribe locations, such as SF. vendors make decent amount of money and add significantly to their email database. this event would not be exclusively tribe, but that would be a main goal [to attract tribe members].

Then, we could repeat this again for V-Day, say, around feb 11-12 and/or at evening club events.
