New Stash Bash Date & More Info…

Kevin has made a few announcements regarding plans for Stash Bash 2. Keep in mind all of this stuff is likely to happen but isn’t exactly set in stone yet. First off, the event will be pushed back ONE WEEK to Octber 5, 2003. No additional entries are being accepted due to the date change, though. Hopefully those that are chosen can still make it on that date.
Approximately 10,000 essays were received, and of those, around 300 will be chosen. These 300 will NOT be permitted to bring a guest. So, it’ll be you and you alone. The plan is to allow just 30 people into the store per hour, to keep it as a small, intimate affair, and ensure plenty of space and time to chat with all the guests in attendance. A 10-hour day is planned, and we imagine those that are chosen will be informed of their chosen “hour”. Sounds like a great way to run things, similar to the group system used for the first Stash Bash, however on a much smaller, more conversation-friendly scale.
We expect all of this stuff will be made “official” soon enough, until then, we wanted to give you the heads-up. Once folks start to get their invitations, we’ll start talking more seriously about gatherings the evening before the event and during the day. Naturally, with a Sunday event, we assume a lot of folks might be looking for a place to party and crash on Saturday night. Stay tuned.
