So far we have a few new cities joining Can't Stop the Serenity for 2009. If you see these folks around the forum, please give them a virtual pat on the back for joining up.

Calgary, Alberta

Mentor: Samatwitch of Vancouver, BC
Albuquerque, NM (upgrading from affiliate city to screening for 2009)

Mentor: Traevynn of Seattle, WA
Cedar Rapids, IA

If there are other cities who would like to start a screening in their hometown, drop me a PM and I'll see if I can't find you a mentor to steer you through the planning phases of your event. Or just post a shout-out here.
The mentor program isn't just for new cities either. In some locations, veteran organizers are handing off responsibilities to new leaders. If absolutely anyone needs a helping hand to get their event started, send up a flare and we'll arrive with the cavalry (so to speak). We are willing to help, you just have to ask. No question is silly and no problem is too small.

Whoot and welcome to you ALL!
We love new cities.
Tanya and her group of mentors will take awesome care of you. But if you need anything, feel free to give me a holler too. I remember being a new city...
WHOOT!
