Posted: Hi everyone, Si here with an official Poi in the Park Sheffield Birthday announcement..
I can now confirm that our Birthday PiP will be taking place on Saturday, October 20th, from 3pm onwards.
The location is as follows: Endcliffe Park, off the Hunters Bar/Eccleshall Road Roundabout, Sheffield.
For those of you using sat nav to find your way, the postcode is: S11 7AB.
As in previous years the day is going to be a whole lot of fun, with lots of crazy things going on during both the day and night. We intend to have a few workshops running during the day (anyone wanting to run one or suggest what they'd like to learn please get in touch in the weeks to come), along with games and other activities, so whether your coming down to teach, learn, play or just be a monkey in a field for a day it should be fun for everyone!! :-)
For those of you who haven't been to a SheffPiP Birthday before, we like to keep everything very relaxed and groovy (as a certain crazy orange fruit repeatedly says...), which means there will be people from all walks of life, with loads of different props and differing skill levels; from those who perform for a living, to those who have quite literally never picked up poi, juggling balls etc.. before.
In the evening we will be having a renegade based fire show, where we encourage anyone who is comfortable and sensible with fire to get up and show us what they love doing best.
We will save the pros. till the very end because the show should be more about people who love fire than those who live fire, and we want you all to feel totally relaxed about spinning in front of us, regardless of skill level (again as long as you are sensible and safe with fire).
NB. Poi in the Park Sheffield is not liable for any personal injuries sustained while performing with fire. All individuals perform under their own consent. First Aid equipment will be provided should any accidents occur, and fire marshalls will make themselves aware to you before anyone lights up.
When the fire dies down we have also got St. Andrew's Church Hall for the night as we have had in recent years. This will provide a venue for more spinning, drinking, bouncing around and general madness for the remainder of the night. The hall comfortably sleeps over 50 people, and is fully equipped with kitchen and toilet facilities, so expect a continuing supply of tea, cakes and biccies...!
The large room will be allocated as the sleeping room, and past 2am music will have to be kept to a minimum to let those who wish to, sleep. However the small room will be an all-night UV room for those of you who aren't planning on sleeping.. ;-)
Although SheffPiP is a totally free event to attend, I do have to cover the base cost of hiring the hall for the night, and as such all those who wish to stay over will be asked to donate a modest £4 towards their stay. However, depending on how many people stay over, if i end up breaking even this year any money left over will be used to buy some yummy breakfast treats for all those in the hall... :-)
Those wishing to stay for the night, can you please email me over the next few weeks so i can guage numbers, and include any others you know of who may also wish to sleep over. The email address to use for this, and all enquiries is:
sheffpip@googlemail.com
That's about it for now. I'll post up a contact number for people to use closer to the day, but in the meantime i'll list below a summary of important information..
When: Saturday 20th October 2007, 3pm till 9am Sunday. Where (Daytime): Endcliffe Park, Eccleshall Road. S11 7AB Where (Night): St. Andrew's Church Hall, Hanover Way. S3 7RQ Who: Absolutely anyone and everyone. Price: Free for all during the day. £4 to sleep in the hall. Contact: sheffpip@googlemail.com or reply to this thread.
So, get booking those days off in your diaries and get those train/coach tickets sorted cos this is one day you're not gonna want to miss out on! :-)
Stay tuned for more updates and keep those suggestions coming for activities and workshops.
Also, anyone wanting to do a non-renegade performance please email me with details of your routine, any music you may want playing etc..
Peace n Pineapples
Si

Posted: come on guys, i've given you dates. who's coming and who wants space in the hall?
so far i've only heard from sheffield people and they don't need accommodation.
Do you still want me to book the hall out for people to stay over? if so i need to know how many roughly will be staying..

Posted: Did we always pay to sleep in the hall? I should be there. A lift from the train station would be muchly appreciated
What're you looking at? I assume you're being rhetorical? What're you callin' me!?
si_sheffSILVER Member member 128 posts Location: United Kingdom
Posted: yup, although last year a lot of people didn't pay. i hire out the hall out of my own money and it costs over £100 for the night so i do kinda need ppl to pay to sleep or i have to cover the costs myself...
£4 aint exactly a lot thos seeings as PiP is pretty much the ONLY free event of its kind and size in this country.. :-D
LarrySILVER Member Electro Ponce! 383 posts Location: Hull!, United Kingdom
Posted: I'm not complaining and I'll happily pay, just can't remember paying last time i crashed. Now, who's actually going to drink with me this year?

Read as: buy me a drink, buy me a drink! Thing is, i'm so not strapped for cash anymore so if we've got a few people who want a bottle of wine or something i'll just buy a crate and we can have a bottle each a little bit cheaper. Check me, economising!
What're you looking at? I assume you're being rhetorical? What're you callin' me!?
si_sheffSILVER Member member 128 posts Location: United Kingdom
Posted: haha, well last year me and the leicester lot stayed up past everyone crashing out (thanks for staying up and keeping me company guys!! :-) ) this year i say get a vast amount of crates in, with some hardcore liquor and anyone caught not drinking and trying to sleep will be nipple-pegged... ;-P what say you to that good sir?
(runs off in glee.......)
si_sheffSILVER Member member 128 posts Location: United Kingdom
Posted: only kidding kids.. only step will be nipple pegged! and everyone is required (yes this is mandatory!!!) to do so at any opportune moment.. especially when he's asleep... ;-P love ya buddy.

TastesLikePurpleGOLD Member addict 498 posts Location: Nottingham, United Kingdom
Posted: ok i'll have got paid by then (hopefully! *crosses fingers*) so i'll buy you a drink - or i'll do the same and economise with crates

But there's no sense crying over every mistake. You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
