North American Redhead Gathering - Summer 2010

 

Redhead World is working to create a redhead gathering in North America this summer.  For the past few years, there has been a lot of demand for a large redhead gathering on this side of the Atlantic for those who can't make the trip to Roodharigendag in the Netherlands.

 

So, Redhead World is going to dive in with a large gathering, possibly 2,000 or more redheads.  We've been in talks with a midwest Celtic festival for several months now.  We haven't quite made all the arrangements official yet, so we can't reveal the particular festival or location just yet.  The festival council has met to consider our ideas though, and given it an enthusiastic "go."  We want to give all of you a "heads up" so you could start planning travel plans.

 

The event will take place in the United States' midwest region on the weekend of August 8, 2010 with the redhead events currently planned for that day.  In addition to a massive redhead gathering and photoshoot, there will be a redhead contest.  Redhead World will also have a small information tent set up at the festival so you can stop by to meet me, CelticCurls, and other member volunteers and maybe meet some other redheads in the days leading up to Sunday's big event.

 

A redhead documentarian whose team is doing a documentary on redheads is attending.  They will be filming the various redhead events and conducting some interviews.

 

We hope to release official details very soon, however, Redhead World needs your help!

 

Our sponsorship of this Celtic festival alone will be quite a substantial fee ($5,000), but it does buy us a lot.  Based on the festival's annual reports' attendance figures, we expect over 2,000 redheads to be attending the festival each day - we hope most of them will attend our photoshoot.  We also get everything that goes along with one of the best-planned and largest Celtic festivals in the world: many food vendors on hand, lots of shopping, insurance, police/security, first aid, transportation, parking, and several stages and exhibits of the best Celtic music and entertainment.

 

So, please, please, help make our redhead gathering possible.  We have just launched a sponsorship page where you can sponsor us for as little as $10.  We would only need 600 people to buy a $10 sponsorship to make our goal of $6,000 to cover our expenses.  Please help us as much as you can; as a new website, we simply don't have enough money to cover all of the costs.

 

We'll be publishing a list of ways you can help spread the word in the coming days too, please help however you can!
