EMPIRE STATES BODYBUILDING FIGURE FITNESS BIKINI and MEN'S PHYSIQUE CHAMPIONSHIPS

[EmpireStates]

STAY TUNED FOR MORE DETAILS!
LAST YEARS SHOW WAS A HIT! EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME... SHOW RAN SMOOTHLY...

THIS YEAR THERE ARE GOING TO BE MORE/NEW CHANGES...
AS ALWAYS ALL THE CHANGES THAT I UNDERTAKE ARE ON TEH BEHALF OF THE COMPETITORS NO OTHER REASON THEN TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU THE COMPETITORS ARE TAKEN CARE OF AND HAPPY

SOMETHING I AM DISAPPOINTED TO SEE IS A YEARLY INCREASE IN COSTS/FEES THAT ARE IMPOSED ON COMPETITORS AND YOU DONT SEEM TO BE GETTING ALOT FOR YOUR MONEY.

SOME SHOWS IN MY OPINION BACKSTAGE ARE NOT TREATING COMPETITORS PROPERLY AND YOU (COMPETITORS) ARE YELLED AT .. TOLD "GET ON STAGE OR DONT GO"

YEARS AGO I WAS TOLD BY SOMEONE NEAR AND DEAR TO ME "THE SHOW NO MATTER WHAT IS ALL ABOUT THE COMPETITORS" "WITHOUT THEM (YOU) THERE IS NO SHOW"

THAT SAID ALL CHANGES THAT I HAVE MADE SINCE I TOOK THE SHOW OVER HAVE ALWAYS BEEN FOR YOU

THANK YOU IN THE PAST FOR ALL THE SUPPORT AND I HOPE THAT YOU CONOTINUE TO SUPPORT A GREAT ESTABLISHED SHOW THAT I PUT ON FOR YOUR BENEFIT!

ANY AND ALL SUGGESTIONS TO RUN IT BETTER ARE ALWAYS WELCOMED

INFACT ID LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOU AS COMPETITORS WOULD LIKE TO SEE /BE HAPPY TO GET AS A 'FAVOR' OR GOODIE FOR YOUR SUPPORT

I HAVE DONE LOADED GOODIE BAGS... WOULD THERE BE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE? HATS? REUSABLE TOTE BAGS? SHIRTS? YOU TELL ME .. ILL MAKE IT HAPPEN IF I CAN!??

THANK YOU AGAIN
HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL IN 2011 AT A GREAT SHOW! (CHANGES AND ALL)

favors/goodies?

I always liked getting a shirt with the show info on it.

A few shows have post-comp food backstage, which is nice for the competitors and also for me when I have clients there.

[EmpireStates]

ok .... see what i can do ..
i was also thinking of a nice reusable tote bag ... something better than the plastic shopping bags..?

Oren! I'm hella stoked to meet you in just under 3 weeks and compete at your show. You've been so helpful already! I might end up getting a room so thanks for the heads up on the discounted rate. You rock!

And I saw above that you did goodie bags... wow! Awesome. I didn't get anything at the contest I competed in last week.



See you soon!

[Jodi_Lane]

Haha! Yeah! Goodie bags are the best! XO I always try to contribute to them when I can!

I have been lucky enough to do several shows with Oren. Those shows have been my favorite ones as well. He is always there easing nerves and keeping backstage light hearted. As a promoter of a show I feel that he is going to do everything within his means to give the competitor a different experience and it's well worth it to do his show.

I am very happy that he was with me last Saturday. He was with me for my first amateur show and I'm hoping I'll see him at my first Pro show.

With that said as far as goodie bags go, no goodie bag I've ever gotten has ever surpassed the one I got from the Fitness Atlantic this year. Oren, if you can come within 45% of that your competitors will be thrilled, lol. I still rock that bag. I have pics of it in my journal.

Oh, a few competitor requests...
Please make sure backstage has as many mirrors as possible. If you think you have enough, you dont.
Power outlets, if possible.
A posted schedule of events so that you arent hassled as much.
Clearly marked bathrooms
Wardrobe racks so girls can hang dresses and costumes.
Snacks (Nuts or PB) for girls who didnt bring enough food and start to fade. There's always 1 or 2.

I love you Oren!! Thanks! xxxoo!

[AmberDoodle]

I agree. Oren is great to have backstage!! And Fitness Atlantic's swag was amazing! That bag has been everywhere with me ever since!
