You and Me…and 45,000 others!

THE TREE OF LIGHTS AT THE STREETS AT SOUTHPOINT!!! One of the longest days of my life….but very rewarding!  The event was a success with over 45,000 people in attendance! Lifehouse was great and all the local talent was great! 

 Yes, we had a few snags here and there, but that comes with any event no matter how much you plan!  Overall, it went really well.  The station team pulled it off again……

 Today we had a post-mortem meeting…the title “post-mortem” is another word that doesn’t sound that great (it sounds like I killed something), but it fits the purpose.  Everyone at the station who was at the event, helped planned the event or just watched it from home is invited to participate.  We discuss pros/cons/things to add/things to change….anything goes!  I’ve learned from past years of doing this meetings….just smile!  Being a part of the planning stages and hearing things that went wrong or suggestions for some improvement never is easy (because in your mind….you are your worst critic or everything is great).  But, these meetings are how each event gets better each year.  Things I would have never noticed since I was too involved.  During the event I never sit back from the “outside” and experience it….so with anything change is sometimes hard…but needed.

I hope you each got to experience the event from The Streets at Southpoint or your comfy couch at home…..

Now, we start planning next year! 363 days and counting!
