EVENT:          Spartanburg Battle of the Bands, with speaker Jamie Tworkowski of To Write Love On Her Arms, will be held one Saturday in May (3rd, 10th, 16th, 23rd, or 30th of 2008).

GOALS:                      1.  Must raise $1,000 for Jamie to come speak

2.  Must raise $500-$600 for winning band

3.  All additional money will be donated to TWLOHA

4.  Minimum of $2,000 is the overall goal to raise

PLANS:                      1.  Renee may be able to come speak too; however,

                                         it’s unlikly because of  her college schedule.

2.  We’ll ask local businesses  for donations (Fats,  The Clock, Wal- mart, doctors offices, etc.) in return we’ll print flyers with advertisements for their business. If each donated $100 then it would only take 20 businesses to reach $2,000.

3.  Bands will pay a fee to participate, and we'll charge a

small fee for people to get in the door.

4.  Talk to radio stations about providing people to judge

bands.

5.  Christian Supply may be willing to contact a well-known

band to help judge battle.

6.  Getting the word out should not be too hard. We’ll have

flyers, Myspace, Facebook, radio stations, and TWLOHA

will put it on their website

7.  We’ll begin talking to businesses as soon as a date is

confirmed with Jamie and Restoration (?). If Restoration is

willing to let us hold it there.  TWLOHA will have plenty of

room to plug up camper if needed and set-up booth.
