SO i finally created my gmail account im now a proud user :)
I have been speaking to a couple of friends of mine about donating auction items. A good friend of mine owns a frozen yoghurt shop down in bondi called Smooch and she was happy to donate some smooches on the day as a nice thing to have. I think this would just be great and a nice thing to have why not if its for free?
Let me know and I can then verify with her.
Also about the band, I think its a great idea but if we need to spend money on flights and accommodation for them, it could be costly and something we dont have. Perhaps we can find a local band I even know some people that might be willing to play for us.
Secondly, the venue is a major issue and so we need to try and crack down and find a place. I am a bit skeptical on the round house, as we are trying to target new business entrepreneurs and I dont think many uni students would have an established business.
Perhaps we need to brain storm where we could hold the event and try and make some contacts this week.
Let me know what you guys think

ReplyDeletejenna - thanks for posting. in class now. it's so fun.
nice idea on the smooches. perhaps we could incorporate that into the actual event rather then just having it as an auction item. would she want to just hand it out in exchange for visibility at the event?
as far as auction items go we are thinking to go big. can you take the lead on this since you are from here? we're thinking like boutique hotel stays (in melbourne even), high end liquor, travel/flight vouchers, dinners in nice restaurants, etc.
as far as the venue is concerned we are going to be working on that this week. potential venues incluse oxford arts factory, upstairs at the beresford, etc. maddie has agreed to take the lead in contacting venues and creating a spreadsheet to compare options and availability. can you liase with her regarding ideas for venues?
