> Run a "Burning Hearts" Magic: The Gathering themed tournament - All cards that are Black, Blue or Green are banned; only cards that are Red, White, Lands, or Artifacts are allowed (multi-color cards are allowed as long as they are at least partly Red or White).

>> Since it's a Browncoats theme, I was considering an Inara cosplay and offering a "companion" booth in which people can pay a dollar for pictures & "kisses" (which is a gift bag with Hershey's kisses and a raffle ticket to the dealer's room).  Those proceeds go entirely to Kids Need to Read.

>>> Opening this topic up for discussion--Valentine's Day Events (Friday feb 14th first day of orccon)
>>> Everyone feel free to give ideas and suggestions.
>>>  
>>> So far
>>> --Meet & Greet with the Guests at 7 pm Friday is confirmed (lasts about 30 minutes and can lead into another event).
>>>  
>>>  --Valentine's day ball for couples. Around 9 pm until midnight.
>>> This would require it's own space approved by Tim. The budget will have to be approved by the board. It would have an event fee (like $10 per couple) paid at the door and wristbands given.
>>> Theme (like geek prom or another theme), music, decorations, refreshments (besides cake and punch), etc. are to be decided on. And someone running it once it is hammered out.
>>>  
>>> --Ice Cream social (so no one is left out on valentine's day). I would like for this to be in the Staff Lounge area following the Meet and Greet at around 8 pm and run 2 hours.
>>> This one is easy and can be handled by Staff lounge and myself. Free for staff, supervisors, convention support, and senior volunteers....$5 for anyone else wanting to attend.
>>>  
>>>  
>>> I have already listed 2 Friday events in collectables that are valentine's day themed.
>>> I am planning on running a themed rpg Friday as well. Love letter would be a good tourney for valentine's day. Any other ideas share them. Doesn't mean anyone has to use your ideas but you may say something
>>> that has someone say "cool, good idea". All input is appreciated anc considered. Let's start our time at the Hilton off with a bang and make valentine's day 2014 a fun experience for all attendees and ourselves.
