<div>Hello ladies and gents! I am compiling a list of FAQ to put on the TribalCon website, which will also be sent out when people register. Please please send me any questions you may have heard pop up during this or any TribalCon event.. or if you attended and were wondering about something while you were there. We are trying to make the whole process of registering and organizing as painless as possible, and though we have made a lot of changes on trouble shooting lists and such, I think we can all agree that a FAQ page is EXTREMELY helpful.. It's not just a general resource list for staff, but for anyone who would like to attend TribalCon. <br/> <br/>Thanks so much!</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://awalim.tribe.net">Awalim Dance Co &amp; TRIBALCON!</a> - 9 replies </div>

<div>NEW! <br/>For 2008, we are launching the pilot for Triboriginal's Children's Program Scholarship Fund! <br/>Tribo is committed to families. So, with additional support from the Tribo 2007 Community Silent Auction, we are now able to offer a limited number of partial scholarships for kids in need attending Tribo '08! <br/> <br/>We strive to create a compassionate and expeditious process for reaching out to families. Bear with us this year, as we do our best to work out the kinks. <br/> <br/>What to know: <br/>-Scholarships can only be offered to kids with legal guardians at the event. <br/>-Scholarship hopefuls must register at the usual rates. If an application for funds is accepted, the grant will come in the form of a partial refund at, or before, the event. <br/>-Letters detailing need, and supporting documentation, should be sent by July 15. Applicants will be notified by August 1. <br/> <br/>Mailing address: <br/>Tribo Kids Scholarship Program, 44 Tampa Ave. Asheville, NC 28806 <br/> <br/>With further questions, contact Torva: triboriginal@yahoo.com, or call Onca at 828 232 2980. <br/> <br/>BECAUSE YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CHOOSE <br/>BETWEEN YOUR FAMILY &amp; YOUR ART!</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://awalim.tribe.net">Awalim Dance Co &amp; TRIBALCON!</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>Wow the Tribal con shows were fun..... <br/>First the hafla Friday night, where everyone got up and boogied.... I love that this happened, and on the scale that it did! There must have been over a hundred dancers getting their groove on that night. <br/>And the Sat night show was a lot of fun and _good_ dance- in a fairly short time! So much variety in performances.

<div>Ok – so I was a big slacker and by the time I got around to registering all of the full-weekend passes were sold out! Not wanting to miss out completely, I purchased a Show-Sunday package for $133. Since then I have procured a full weekend pass and I am looking to sell the Show-Sunday. Message me if you are interested – I am willing to bargain as this is not the “full” deal… <br/> <br/>M</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://awalim.tribe.net">Awalim Dance Co &amp; TRIBALCON!</a> - 0 replies </div>
