Have the perfect spot for the next Anniversary location? Tired of having to travel across the continent when there are totally kickin' rad places for us to host the event in your own backyard?

If you would like to bid on a location for our Anniversary 2013 event, please send an e-mail titled 2013 ANNIVERSARY BID to naevents@tarvalon.net, events@tarvalon.net, and officers@tarvalon.net. Bids need to be submitted by February 25th 2012.

Things to keep in mind when submitting a bid:
  • If your bid is selected, YOU will be an integral part of the planning. By making a bid, you are volunteering to be the local liason.
    What does that mean? You will be my eyes and ears on the spot. You will be expected to do a lot of the leg work to find hotels, local activities, and transportation options.[/*:m:19s6hs5y]
  • Anni is generally held in the spring (think February or March) in a campground type location. Site should have cabin-like living arrangements, kitchen space for meal preps, and spaces for events like sword fighting or archery.[/*:m:19s6hs5y]
  • Preferred site locations would be moderately isolated. We tend to be fairly loud so being 10 feet from a cabin holding a girl scout meet wouldn't be the best location.[/*:m:19s6hs5y]
  • Normal Anni attendance is 75-100 people.[/*:m:19s6hs5y]

Please include the following information in your bid and aim to use the following headings:

Name, rank and organization of submitter(s)

Overview

Location

Personal experience with the area
Why you think the location would be our best option

Location
City (overview & details)
Activities (museums, sites, and other touristy things to do in the area)
Hotel Options (URL & Phone Numbers)
Transportation (Major Airports in the area, options for people to get to the hotels)

Support
Point of Contact - Who would serve as local liaison for the event?
Other – additional Tower volunteers who will help facilitate event

Consider the following questions in your narrative overview:
Approximately how far is the site from major airports?
How much is the bus/shuttle from the airports, and what are the hours of operation?
How much, approximately, are flights from a few major US airports (Seattle, LA, Denver, Houston, Altanta, Detroit, Chicago, NYC, DC area).
How much can members expect to budget for some of the extra activities the site may offer? (if applicable)


Please feel free to send us an email if you have any questions!
