You will not believe this

Reading the paper today I came across an interesting article about a fan remake of the original star wars movie.  Funny thing is I expected to find a 5 minute web film but instead found someone actually spent the time to make a 2hour fan feature for the web.  Now talk about a marketing campaign growing legs and being taken over by the consumer.

What are you doing for New Years Eve?

Why not try New Years Eve at the Lodge!!!

If your looking to do something different, other than just going to your usual place this New Years Eve, there is a great New Years Eve Bash taking place at Edgewater Park Lodge.  The staff have been working hard to put together a New Years Eve celebration that will be unforgettable.  Where else other than Kearney, ON do you get to see fireworks just past Midnight to ring in the New Year with one of the best back drops in Ontario.  They also have a great dinner special lined up to make the evening complete.  So try something NEW this New Years Eve and visit the staff at Edgewater for their first New Years Eve at the Lodge.  More details can be found by visiting the Lodge page at http://www.edgewaterparklodge.com/?page_id=203

Day 3 at the IAAPA Show in Orlando, Florida

Today we wrapped up our third day at the IAAPA show in Orlando, Florida at the Orange County Convention center.  We saw a number of unique vendors from a company who makes some very amazing animatronics - would you like a talking parrot for your pirate ship?  Well there was even a vendor who could supply the pirate ship if you didn't have that.

Looking for bouncy rides or castles there is even that at IAAPA.

And anything else your mind could conceive to bring to a theme or amusement park it was there, including this interesting climbing challenge which put tradeshow goers to the test.

This week at IAAPA

Just getting ready today to do the second day of IAAPA (International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions) 2011 Show at the Orange Country Convention Center in Orlando Florida.  This was my first time to the show and all I can say is that it was amazing.  The show features products and services which could be used in the setup and operation of an amusement or event park.  Overall it seems less like a trade show and more like one giant Carnival, as the atmosphere on the trade show floor is just electric.  From coasters, water slides, management systems, ferris wheels, robotic creations, etc. it is all there.
