a grand hello from the central headquarters of monkey business!

we are in full swing planning and refining what is shaping up to be another amazing event!

some notes to share:

–after a meeting at deerfields and some location scouting, we have made the executive decision to move the main stage area to the large wooden stage structure (where World Bridge happened and where we had the chillout at POW-WOW…)
its an area much more condusive to dancing as the ground doesnt slope sideways, not to mention the power, shade and protection from the weather.
there is a large fire pit right in the middle of the very large dance area, which is centrally located to the two lakes.
no more scary walks down the hill to the stage hehehe…

— i spent the afternoon working out details with our friend Ambra, who will be providing delicious food to us all through the event, under the guise of her growing business venture, Ambrosia's Delights.  After her successful and very tasty offerings at both Croatan and World Bridge, we are happy to have her on board with us for KA-POW!
She is offering a Meal-Plan which can be purchased either with your presale ticket, or at the event, which is $30. The price for individual meals is $9. So if you plan on eating through the weekend the meal-plan is an economical way to provide yourself nourishment as you dance like a maniac.

— We humbly encourage those who plan to attend to purchase a presale ticket, as that helps us out financially before the festival. if you plan on eating, add the meal plan fee to your payment and indicate your meal plan status on your paypal note.  That means youre saving money AND planning ahead AND helping us throw a better event and have even more tasty food offerings for you when you get here!
