Call for Sponsors: Blog Parteeh ’07

During our last Blogger Christmas Meetup we decided to push ahead with the New Year’s party for bloggers this January. I couldn’t make myself to call it a BlogCon 2007 for so many reasons but the main thing is that its too early for a BlogCon. So, we ended up thinking for a new name for this event.

Several bloggers who attended last December’s meetup were willing to help out as part of the Steering Committee and I’m glad to see a lot of hands raised to assist in organizing this party. For me, it’s a true sign that there’s a real community in our little corner of blogosphere. We will need more people to help out though considering it’s just a bloggers’ party for bloggers (or a blog networking night whichever you want to call it).

The most important part, which is what I’ve been rushing lately, is to get sponsors for the party and I’m also glad a lot of people (bloggers and independent publishers alike) were willing to shell out they hard-earn moolah to make this a reality.

Here’s the not-so-complete details thus far:

Blog Parteeh! 2007
Saturday, January 27, 2007
4:00PM to 10:PM
Venue: TBA

We’re now looking for more sponsors but here’s the list of pledges that we have so far:

Cash Sponsors

Donations & Raffle Prizes

Those interested in sponsoring the event may contact me at abeolandres {at} gmail {dot} com. I will outline the blog mileage you’ll get by becoming a sponsor. Donations and items for raffle prizes are also welcome.

Volunteers for the Steering Committee will have a meeting in Makati on Saturday, Jan 13, 2006 at Starbucks Greenbelt 3. If you want to become a volunteer to help out in logistics, program, marketing and welcoming committee, email me and I will connect you to the team leads (Jayvee, Noel, Gail, Carlo, Kiven, Jomar, Jun, Rico, etc. — will complete this list with their roles later.)

More details on the party itself in the coming days. We’ll put up a dedicated blog for it if needed be.
