HERStory of GRRRLZ Rock - 2007

Grrrlz Rock 2008  |  Grrrlz Rock 2007  |  Grrrlz Rock 2006

Summary
Hello all you fabulous Grrrlz!, I can't believe it's all over. November ended two weeks ago and I'm just now catching my breath! WOW! Thank you for an incredible Grrrlz Rock this year. Your gift of time and talent made it possible. We've inspired women, girls and those who love us, to support women in music I'm sure. The Grrrl Talk workshop/panel was great too!

This year we more than doubled the number of bands and the number of shows as last year's event. We also had much more advertising and a held a successful guitar giveaway (to a guy named Don). We added a bit of a donation to make the Guitar funds reach $1,000 which went to the WOW hall's educational fund. The winner (Don) then wrote a check for $500 to sweeten the deal.. so $1,500 was raised by way of the Daisy Rock!).

Here's a little recap of promotions:

Radio: KNRQ, KPOT, KRVM, KLCC, KWVA, Mastan Music Pod cast

TV: KMTR, KVAL

Print: Eugene Weekly, Register Guard, Lane Community College Torch, Wow Hall notes

On-line: Several blogs, myspace, face book and gggrlzrock.com websites

Local District: Posters, flyers, handbills, VIP Passes, T-shirts, banner

In the interest of being transparent and dedicated to education... I thought I would send you some basic accounting for the series. Feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions. over all... we did well. This is not sustainable however... I'll need more help raising funds prior to the shows. It's a hard project to do on my own.

Total Cost: $9,396
Total Income (door + sponsorships): $9,007
Total profit (after expenses): $338

These funds will go to help fund next year's event. : )

Thanks again for everything! I am so blessed to have worked with you all and I look forward to working with you in the future.
