Next Show:
Date: 16th December 2007
Venue: Sydney Harbour Boat Cruise
Hi to Earthdance Australia from Earthdance Sydney!!!
This year Earthdance was a huge success all around Australia, many thanks
for your participation. This email is for people who are in or around Sydney
this weekend and want to join a fabulous Pirate Boat on the harbour this
Sunday to raise funds for Earthdance.
We're just sending out a big thank you to everyone who attended Earthdance
Sydney and donated money to help keep our event afloat. This year the Sydney
event reached an all time record in attendance, with a police estimate of
40,000 people making us the biggest Earthdance on the planet!!
A big congratulations to all who donated their time and money to the cause
to help us make this possible. Also a great many thankyou's to the security
force and St. John's ambulance for their hard work in keeping the event safe
and promptly helping those in need.
Bucket donations organised by our charity partner Oasis and Childwise also
reached an all time high of just over $20,000. Special thanks to those of
you who donated $20 and $50 bills and valuing the festival for what it's
worth.
The donations pan out to an average donation of 50 cents per person which
means some of you were very generous and others must have missed the
buckets!!
Unfortunately Earthdance Sydney was not able to donate any money to our
sponsored charities this year. With massively increased safety and crowd
control requirements having been slapped on the festival this year (80% of
the budget), Earthdance has run at a loss in excess of $10,000 for the first
time since its introduction to metropolitan Sydney four years ago.
Nevertheless it was one of the best Earthdance's ever for most participants,
so we hope you will contribute to help us through this.
We are currently trying to raise some money to cover the financial loss so
that we could continue with this amazing event, and your help is needed.
Anybody wishing to MAKE A DONATION (tax deductable donation for businesses)
please contact info@earthdance. org.au Every dollar makes a difference for
us!
An awesome fund raiser is on this weekend. Various members of the Earthdance
organising team will be getting together for an intimate Christmas party
cruise around the harbour and we have decided to extend our invitation to
those of you who have spent the time and effort to sign up to our mailing
list and become Earthdance members.
In the true spirit of Earthdance the cruise will feature two floors covering
a wide range of music essentially reflecting the styles experienced at
Earthdance, from Baile Funk to Hip-hop to House and Techno. For those of you
more partial to the dance music edge we have a special underground
DJ/Producer down from France: Alex Kid from F Communications. Alex has
produced for numerous producers in the dance scene and even with pop
producer George Michael. Tickets will be $60 and if you were a volunteer
with Earthdance you pay just $40. For more info reply to this email or check

We hope to see you there!
