Lotusland -You were looking for feedback, and I have a few comments.
The name mini-fest? It's fine with me. Someone made the comment that it makes more sense to insiders; that mey be, but I think it works fine.
The organization was not just good; it was excellent. I knew where everything was, and when. There was always plenty to do, and I knew where and when everything happened. It went very smoothly. The events were well thought out and well placed. The presenters were all excellent.
The venue was OK, but a bit uncomfortable for the a 12 hour day (as some of us had) - no wonder so many school kids have ADD - it's hard to stay focused when yer butt's asleep! I am not sure what choice you'd have about these things though.
I think all in all it was a great show, well organized, and with great performers. GOOD JOB!
