VOLUNTEER SIGNUPS IS OPEN AGAIN!
Volunteers do not need to pay to get into the con. I am also in the process of finding housing for volunteers. I will make this as cheap as possible for you.

Even if you can't make it, there are other things you can do to help, such as ads on your websites, social networking, blogging, and just spreading the word!

If you plan on attending this event (its fine if you change your mind later) post here. I would like a rough sketch of how many WBOers are coming.

So everybody knows, the best rates for staying in Wichita for the event would be calling the hotel it's at, and asking for the "Anime Block". You will get a discount for being in the Anime Festival! By the way, you will need to buy tickets to the fest, but that's not my thing, I can't help you there. Tickets are also available on the event's website!


CURRENT VOLUNTEERS:
Fragbait (event organizer)
Deikailo (Tentative, Plastics supplier and resident expert)
G (Tournament, MFB)




Thank you for your time, and please try to make it out!


P.S.
Unfortunatly, at the moment, funding is low. I am trying to secure funding through a couple sources, but for right now, all costs are coming out of my own pocket. Which is currently empty.
I am looking for some donations of either funding or supplies (unopened MFB boosters, stadiums you can lend, etc) to offset costs.
I know I'm not Brad and that most of you don't know me. However, if you could help out just a little to make sure that the biggest Beyblade event in the Midwest, EVER, goes smoothly, I would be forever thankful.
Please, if you have any questions, PM ME.
DO NOT POST HERE. PM ME.I don't need people thinking you will donate to just any tourney, and I will keep all donations confidential unless you ask me to publicize it.
Thank you very much for your consideration.

Ask Fragbait about the tournament I guess.

Also, I edited the op a bit if you didn't mind.
