So this might make a good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.

   Hi Holly,

   Thanks for getting the ideas flowing!

   Just a friendly reminder that – as Ariel pointed out – Chinese New Year
   in 2015 will start on 19 February
   (see:[2]http://www.chinahighlights.com/travelguide/festivals/spring-fes
   tival/chinese-zodiac-years-of-2011-to-2020.htm ). So this might make a
   good theme with perhaps some traditions from this very special time.

   An APRALO Outreach Event Outreach Workspace is available for your plans

   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.

   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. [45]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
