HI Everyone Just to get everyone’s head around doing all this again! The showcase in Singapore was terrific - so we have to keep up the standard. First: Kelvin/Kuek - anyone. We have done the fans and the Lion Dance. Other suggestions? And we had that session that was really informative on tea - maybe a tea ceremony - after all we are in the Asian region (or remember, Raffles High Tea?). Or do we want something from elsewhere in the whole vast APRALO region? (knowing that whatever we do, it has to be available in Singapore) and Maureen - do we still have Emani’s stuff - maybe we can update it?? And speeches - can we keep them down to three - Alan, Fadi and Steve. By the end of the day, people have had enough of talking and want entertainment and networking. Begin forwarded message:

Dear OC members,
This is to let you know that we agreed to start the Showcase with The face mask changing show, and as Philadel confirmed, the master is from China and the performance is about 8 mins. The cost is SGD$650 or USD514.88 according to today's rates.
I will make appropriate changes in the agenda as well.
Just a brief summary: We are planning to have the following items as promo materials/takeaways: 1. Lanyards for all participants 2. Silk Fans for all participants 3. APRALO booklet with ALSs info for all participants 4. Power Adapters for all participants 5. Prizes for quiz winners - 5 bluetooth portable keyboards
For show we plan to have: 1. To start with - face mask changing show 2. To end with - Lion dance show
And in addition we have catering for 100 people, with good number of canapes and soft drinks.
After covering all expenses we have additional about 400 USD to be used. Do you have any suggestions how else we can use them? We decided not to have pins, as they are somehow useless after the event (people used not to keep them).
We have an option for using those 400$ for champagne - though not sure how much will they cost and how many we can order with this amount (Silvia, can you, please, check this). We have another option to keep those money for APRALO General Assembly, which we are planning to have in London.
So, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you all for a great team work. Best
Siranush

Thanks, Silvia, for confirmation.
Just to let you all know that I have discussed with Philadel the option with having Lion dance also at the start, but he recommended something else, which I think is quite interesting ( performance option called "face-changing" with the vendor for the start of the showcase: This includes a performer dancing while changing a series of masks rapidly, almost like a magic trick. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bian_lian).
Philadel is now exploring the prices and other details and once the vendor gets back to him, he will send us the information.
Thank you.

Dear all,
I have sent some clarifications to Silvia, related to the surplus (to my memory we shouldn't have that much (to me we should have 921, 94USD$), but at least we have now good surplus to start the Showcase with Lion Dance.
Let me check first the amount and then ask Philadel to check how much will be ordering of two Lion Dances (at the beginning and at the end).
But I am all for using surplus for an amazing Lion dance to start the Singapore showcase
Thanks

Hi Everyone
Can we start - please - with a terrific Lion Dance - to take up at least some of the surplus! And possible champagne as part of the drinks?

As there is a surplus (approx. US $ 1,371.94) now, APRALO may want to consider having the pins ? or any other promotional materials?
