Re: Off Season in Canada

Thanks ???
I already read that thread and was wondering if anything was happening this year 2008 in Toronto or anywhere else seeing that nothing happened last year.

Re: Off Season in Canada

It was my understanding that any off-season event would have to be in Western Canada.

Spring, Summer and Fall in the east has been cancelled on account of snow.

Re: Off Season in Canada

I'm sure 1075 would love to be involved/help out with a Canadian off-season.
We have zero money to contribute though, due to a sponsorship issue.

I will however say that during my chatterings at the Waterloo and GTR competitions, I spoke with Karthik, and he sort of indicated to me that 1114 would be trying to revive the competition that WAS the Wonderland Invitational, but that due to the new ownership of Canada's Wonderland being difficult, it might not be held AT Canada's Wonderland.

If it is somewhere in Ontario, we would go to it for sure, I don't really care if it's not at wonderland (I have been too many times lol ) but it would be awesome if there was one!

(It would also save me from my previous posts lol I may of bitten off more than I can chew, I didn't really expect responses lmao , although we would still try and help I'm sure)

Re: Off Season in Canada

If there is no event in Ontario, I would recommend Rah Cha Cha Ruckus in Rochester. I have been going every year and have a great time. Fun, food, costumes, competition, draws, pie in the eye, what's left?

"If" there is no event in Ontario...

Speaking with plenty of mentors at Waterloo and GTR, to me it seems like there is plenty of desire to have an off-season event in the area. We used to have the Wonderland Event, which was absolutely AMAZING as far as off-season events went.

In the interests of putting out a few "feelers" about a replacement off-season event, if you're also interested in having a Canadian off-season event:

Where would like to see it happen?

When would you have it?

What could you do or provide to help make it happen?


At the very least, we could compile all the responses to Karen Rosenthal, and go from there.
