Maine World Crew members?

[Frine]

Hey everyone,

Im newish to the site and want to connect with other SPWC members and ambassadors in Maine so that we can discuss finding creative, effective, and widespread ways to promote the Sick Puppies, together. I encourage any and all ideas people have, to just throw em up on the board! "Lets do this!"...except dont fight, thats not a good thing!

[Carrie]

I love your passion and enthusiasm! Count me in to help with the promoting, although I can't say I'm very good with the creative ideas lately.

[Frine]

Thats great! I have an idea, I just need to make sure I can do it. So dont hold your breath, I'll post it when I figure everything out. Being 15, my options are limited, ya know? Something I also wanted to bring up is the points system in all this. as this will be a group effort Im not sure how that is going to play out, or if a individual will even get points. Maybe they will have everyone split equal, or maybe they just wont distribute any points to anyone. what matters is that we are getting the word out and helping the Pups! The more people, the better. So dont be shy Mainahs! Thanks for the help Clibby9!

[Rose]

Being an ambassador I have tons of posters and signs to help promote the band, I don't have many places to put up the signs being in a small town and my own house is in the middle of the woods. I definitely wouldn't mind mailing you each one if you'd like.
Next time there's a show nearby (Somone heard they were working on a date in Boston which I would so be at) I could even give you guys some posters that you could hang up. Sort of an honorary ambassadorship.

[Frine]

Thanks so much rose! with the school year starting up, i would like to put one on the outside of my locker. it would see a lot of publicity there. plus it would look cool I'll pm you the adress. thanks again!

[tbritting]

I'm always up for helping for helping out the band in any way that I can!! Boston would be cool

[Carrie]

I would be happy to put up some posters and signs in SoPo if you want to send me some Rose! I can message you with my address.

If they do add a Boston date I would totally be up for meeting in Portland and carpooling down together.

[Frine]

I still havent gotten the O-K to do what i want to. i will post it here once i get it. or dont. until then. heres a cool idea. Free hugs campaign in the mall? lemme know what you guys think.

[Carrie]

Haha! Are we seriously the oldest Mainers on here? We're gonna have to work on that!

[tbritting]

[Carrie]

Yeah, I'm surprised Rob isn't on here too. He and Shim are pretty tight. Have you seen the video of when they went to get piercings together? "We got a bleeder!" The look on Emma's face is awesome! I'll have to ask Rob sometime why he's not part of our Crew!

[Carrie]

Oops, forgot to ask what your idea is to help promote the band?

[tbritting]

I'd love to raise enough to get on the radio during the Markathon to talk about Sick Puppies, The World Crew and how the band and us help not only people grieving but how we are a big family that doesn't judge anyone and welcomes everyone

[Carrie]

That sounds like a great idea! I love Markathon. He's a great guy. Just bumped into him at The Big Easy a couple weeks ago. He was raising money for Mark Belanger from Pigboat.

[tbritting]

He is very awesome, I usually see him all over town and on record store day. He always makes it a point if he see's me to wave and say hi. If he has some extra time we always have a little chat, so I could probably talk to him about doing that if I had enough to donate (and food to bring)

[Frine]

i dont go on CYY enogh to know what program your talking about, but i will take a look. it sounds like an AWESOME idea! it doesnt get more direct that that! Awesome idea tbritting!

[Frine]

Everyone,

Just letting everyone know that we WILL actually launch a free hugs campaign in the Maine Mall if we can get four people to confirm that they would go. so far, as far as I know we only got Frine and Ginger_Beard I have not taken the time to plan anything, as I dont know if we will do it yet. So lets get two brave souls! after that we will all discuss planing, time, etc. Any takers?

[Carrie]

I'm willing to help out but I'm not sure I want to be the one who is actually giving out the hugs. I will hold the sign , videotape, talk to people about the campaign or about the Sick Puppies or any other job you can think of. I may warm up to the hugging lots of strangers idea but for now...I'll be behind the scenes.
