I would be more then happy to help with the organization of the group as a whole! I can look into making sure we can get in the parade next year as well as organize the logo wear! Just let me know what you need. I want to wear a crown!! G you can be the Queen I will take any postion that I can wear a crown!! We could even have our own royalty....Do we have any volunteers to be king?? J/k. On a serious note, if we want to become a more organized group, even become non-profit. We could do many good things. The Winter Carnival would be a ball...but look at what we could accomplish!! I am all in!

So you and Randy will consider bleaching and spiking your hair?

Sure, we'd be the THX Twins!

Hmm...the THX twins. Like the doublemint twins...only scary.

I take back my queen statement and am switching to the more group friendly "any position where I can wear a crown" statement. Or no position at all. I just want a tiara damn it.

damn

I had a couple thoughts way back there, but forgot 'em now.

Cooler Crew

Kewler Krewe

Sounds something like Bizarro/Superman in parallel worlds or whatever

Play up a little rivalry between the two, or the Krewe is for banished members who steal noodles, don't share, whatever

With 8 years of history now, there's gotta be a "legend" or something taking shape??

WTF? I slogged thru 250 posts, and no one was noodling the clues.
I suppose I have to go to the Super Secret Invitational Secret Invitational Secret thread.

I am new... but I realize the impact of the Cooler Crew, and what was all done to get us where we are today. I like the idea of building on what we have today, more so than an offshoot sepearate entity...

But getting dressed up and stuff, could be like an elitist sect of the cooler crew... same name, but with a tag...

Cooler Crew Somethings...

The Something knights of the Cooler Crew...

I think a legend per se is maybe a stretch, but I think you are on to something...

The hunt is fun, but it really takes a toll on you... What can brighten your day like a kids smile??? Everyone in the park smiling at you, laughing, if you will... And what notoriety we could have if we had a small group hanging out in these said costumes... Maybe have an act or a code... dressed like a pirate, spoke like a Swedish pirate...

This could be really cool, without breaking apart what we have already.

But, I am totally cool with how we are now...

(Halloween is my favorite holiday, I just like 'being someone else' for a short period of the year...)

Just my thoughts, sorry I am rambling...

Going to bed!!

See ya!!

Zyphilis......hehehehe

I really like these ideas.

Imagine that two weeks... The cooler crew or Kewler Krew or whatever we come up with.... almost two sides of the same coin.

A group of hunters who take the carnival and hunt to a whole new level.

It's only two weeks a year... why not go crazy.

As far as the hosting... you tell me what you need.

Anything else, I'm in.

We just need to keep the ball rolling all year on this and not let it fade. If we can harness the energy the crew has created this year then nothing can stop us.

you are all full of energy and funny-we went through this last year (for those of you who were around last year anyhow) -these are all great ideas that are getting better every year.

 

The place that did the scarves are like any other place-they charged the set up fee -so if their is any embroidery work done on anything -ie:coats, sweatshirts-I suggest working with this company cause we wont have to pay the fee again -but not neccessary. As for color: I love the colors in the logo- I love slate blues and ice with a passion-the actual color of the material doesnt matter to me but thought I should stick with our blue themes and was to change from year to year -so next year might be a dark blue-Ares wanted black :) cause he's EVIL yah know- that would show which year you had (like the buttons are dated with numbers-these are dated with color) and will be better made every year.

This place does not do iron ons or banners-thats a different company of course -just keep it in mind for any future embroidery.

Keep the great ideas coming-we can only hope to improve every year-

Okay, so ideas are just talk, but fun talk at that. So are we actually going to do something this year? I remember last year was fun talking about the flashy things but nothing actually happened. :( My dreams of flashy things were crushed, until the PDG, then Lisa saved the day!

I agree with LA, pink stinks. We have to stick with cool colors, blues and such. And tiaras. Big tiaras. Big sparkly tiaras. Maybe big sparkly blue tiaras.

Did I mention the tiaras?

like the one you got on??

One thought, the Kewler Krewe (KK) thing made me think of KKK. That's bad. I know it's one K short, but still.

Yes, which oddly enough kinda looks like the Queen of the Snows tiara, only fake gold and not all white and sparkly.

I love the tiaras idea, but boas are the best!

I can too.....that's weird. You guys should be worried that that image can pop so easily into my head.

Okay, so we lifted ideas from the vulcans, the kates, and the royalty. What's next, the Hylex Gnomes???

I like the capes though. Did anybody see the old King Boreas costume in the Landmark Center. Very scottish looking. He had a wool cape.
