As the New Year kicks off, so does the planning for In-SHUCK-ch Days 2010!
A new coordinator, Katherine Drasic, has taken over Curtis Bedwell’s responsibilities. If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact her at days@inshuckch.com or 604-820-6847.
At the moment, grant applications are being finished, research for new funding and sponsorship is being conducted, and organizing for the day is underway. Entertainment acts, catering, and a list of activities is being confirmed. Responses for grant applications should be coming in shortly, as well.

We’ll keep you posted in the upcoming months! Get excited—In-SHUCK-ch Days 2010 is going to be fantastic!
October 2009 Update
Fundraising for In-SHUCK-ch Days 2010 is already underway. With that said, many of the details are still being worked out. We are in the process of drafting this year’s budget, applying for government grants, figuring out sponsorship benefits and preparing the funding solicitation package – to be finished by mid-November – so we can begin finding sponsors and donors early in the New Year.
At the General Assembly this upcoming weekend we hope to receive enough community feedback to make a decision on where the festival will be held. Senior management proposed the idea that we have a rotating host and location each year, and while it is not concrete, we hope to see where the community stands.
There are still many In-Days 2009 t-shirts available. We have discounted them to $8.00, and updated the inventory, so if you’d like to purchase a couple, call the office or email to inquire on available sizes. They will also be available for sale at the General Assembly.
For your consideration, we have posted a list of frequently asked questions (F.A.Q) about In-SHUCK-ch Days to clarify some concerns that were brought forward after In-SHUCK-ch Days 2009. Please take the time to read through them as they address important issues such as the discontinuation of the traditional naming ceremony.
We are in need of suggestions for musical acts to perform at In-SHUCK-ch Days! If you know anyone who might be interested, or have a particular act you’d like to see, email Curtis at research@inshuckch.com. If there is any other entertainment act you’d like to suggest, don’t hesitate to email us your ideas. We are still quite some time away from the festival, but we will keep you posted along the way.
Looking forward,
Curtis Bedwell
