DJ by Digital Mayhem --Jimmy Moon and Darryl Khoury.
The above list is not complete and only possible hosts and attendees--
Post your thoughts here please...
MOST IMPORTANT is the VENUE--
there are lots of requirements-- perfect venues are extremely rare.
BUT can be found-
Get with any LEM Vet to hear details--
Top of the MUST_HAVE list is the venue-- IF one could be found near Plano that would be great BUT anywhere near DFW is doable.
Both SELEM and TEXLEM 2012 had super venues-- and finding more like those is th4 goal but any suitable venue will work-- later DFW TEXLEMs may be held in better & bigger venues.
The weather there then is great-- cool enough and yet not terribly cold either.
SO -- IF you are near DFW or know of any places to hold the next TEXLEM -- NOW is the time to find one.
Above all costs per attendee needs to be a low as possible.
One where we can stay overnight (to protect our gear) is a must.
These events can be very LOUD-- and the 'party' may go on all night.
One with kitchen and showers is a big plus--
Parking and power for camper trailers is important BUT water and sewage is not--just power is good enough.
Places that rent for parties on a regular basis often cost too much. Look for small/medium building for sale.
Whoever is handling the sales may be able to arrange a short term rental- with the possibility of holding a check for security and clean-up.
It will not help if you make this look anything remotely like a RAVE-- something more like a small 'Trade Show' or meeting looks better.
It may help if we may want to come back one or more times per year.
This TEXLEM has a great draw with Rick and Tiffany's Pink Floyd show on Sat night--MYB some can help set up the lasers-- I know we all could learn a lot from Rick.
Note to all planning to do SELEM 2019 in Aug.
PLEASE take advantage of the chance to find more members willing to come to TEXLEM2019-- INVITE everyone-- seek help with the work involved. All LEMs need a BS&T area-- that would be a GREAT PLACE to promote TEXLEM DFW-- and the BS & T area we would have there,,
seeking input and suggestions....
