Governments around the globe are utilizing events as an integral part of their policies for regional development. Therefore, there is an increasing need to ensure event public policy has the capacity to facilitate opportunities for regional development. Generally speaking, event public policies are often inconsistent or vague. In BC, although there is a growing need for both effective and appropriate event policy development and analysis, BC is lacking any written and formal event public policy. We have an array of diverse events here but no common body, language or understanding of how it should be integrated.…

If you guessed the WHS DECA marketing club, you are correct. WHS’s DECA marketing club recently had $4,000 in travel allocations unexpectedly cut from their budget. Without this money they won’t be going to this year's annually DECA competition in Anaheim, California. What is most surprising is that the students of DECA and their parents are paying all of their own travel costs, the $4,000 is only needed for the school chaperones without which the group can’t attend. Lisa Puglielli spoke at yesterday’s town council meeting urging the council to “celebrate the remarkable achievements of our students and show them the pride our town has for their accomplishments.” Likewise, DECA student representative Austin Bovino pleaded to the council to “to consider unfreezing the funds necessary to send us to the national conference”. By far the most surprising event of the meeting when concerned citizen Greg Lichatz vowed $4,000 out of his own pocket if the DECA does not receive the funds from the Town Council. If it wasn’t for noble citizens like Mr.Lichatz, the hard work and dedication of the Wethersfield DECA club may have been in…

New Orleans was left permanently changed in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Mardi Gras season presents an opportunity for locals and tourists alike to collaboratively define this new and changed city. Carnival and Mardi Gras day itself can be viewed as theatrical performances in which local New Orleanians and tourists are involved in multiple dramatic interactions to present an ideal city and celebration. These reciprocal interactions between actor and audience result in a certain presentation of the festival, and of the City of New Orleans and often involves hiding the problems and devastating history that is very much a part of the city and festivities. Tourists from all over the world flock to the city to act in and be an audience member to the series of formal, ritualized parades and balls which take place between the Twelfth Night and Lent. The celebration is reinvented by its performance teams and audiences each year and thus, its meaning is constantly being renegotiated. The first formal masked parade presented by an organized krewe, or performance team consisting of city locals working together to stage the performance of Mardi Gras, took place in 1857 (Cohen 110). Each krewe has a distinct name, performance team members, and personal front. Unique ritual paradigms, such as the exchange of beads for disrobement, are created and enacted in which mutual understanding of the situation is necessary. The success of the presentation is determined not only by the krewe 's performance but by the audience 's acceptance of the krewe 's performance as believable, and their willingness to overlook mistakes. Thus, defining Mardi Gras and the City of New Orleans is a cooperative dramaturgical process dependent on the cooperation of actors and audience members. The product of this interaction between audience members and actors is a working, malleable definition of Mardi Gras ' and New Orleans ' self.…
My first trip to New Orleans was during the week of Mardi Gras and it was definitely one of the best weeks of my life. We arrived on February 10th, the week before fat Tuesday, to find that Mardi Gras festivities were already well underway. I was shocked at how many people I saw. We went to our hotel, The Royal Sonesta, to check into our room and to get everything situated. Our next stop was The Boot, one of the best college bars in America. I found that the area was flooded with campers parked outside the Landmark Bar. I even saw a police officer help some fraternity brother’s put a keg on top of their camper. On my last day we went to the infamous Bourbon Street. We were greeted with signs saying “Mardi On!”. People were dressed in all sorts…
Organizations sometimes seek publicity by staging newsworthy events that attract media coverage. They can be in the form of groundbreakings, world record attempts, dedications, press conferences or organized protests. By staging and managing the event, the organization attempts to gain some control over what is reported in the media. Successful publicity stunts have news value, offer photo, video and sound bite opportunities, and are arranged primarily for media coverage.…

It was exactly five in the afternoon on my watch as I started preparing to go to one of the most awaited yuletide events in my university. It was seven days before Christmas and the last day of classes for the year for the iskos and iskas before the holiday vacation kicks in. As a college freshman, this was my first time to witness the Lantern Parade and I honestly didn't know what to expect aside from seeing lanterns. It was said that the lanterns for this year's parade must be made from scrap materials and other eco-friendly supplies to reduce the cost of making the lanterns and all the money saved from these will be donated to the Yolanda-hit victims. I felt a tinge of curiosity and excitement. As I arrived at the Magsaysay gate of the University of the Philippines, I immediately noticed something different; there were a lot of people than usual. I walked a small portion of the stretch of the Magsaysay street before turning left after the Romvlo hall. From where I was standing, I saw an even bigger crowd of people. The parade was already starting and it was a quarter past five.…
