SO WHAT HAPPENS AT THIS BASH-THINGIE ANYWAYS?THURSDAY EVENING:
Most folks join us on Friday; Renegade Bashers arriving on Thursday evening are up for whatevah, anything from rollerskating to Dave and Busters to just hangin' at my place with booze and movies and quality munchies followed by STEAK N SHAKE and minor mayhem
FRIDAY:
The weekend 'officially' starts on Friday evening at 7pm for Mr. Bella's now-legendary BBQ and other goodies! Anyone who'd like to bring snack treats and/or beverages is MORE than welcome! Good food and good music and amazing people, plus a mini-bonfire in my backyard weather-allowing!
SATURDAY:
We emerge like extras from ZOMBIELAND from various hotel rooms and my house in search of sustenance at our local awesome breakfast place: this year folks also have the option of piling like puppies on blankets and pillows in my living room for LOONEY TUNES AND SCHOOL HOUSE ROCK with breakfasty goodies like Froot Loops and Cocoa Pebbles (plus bacon and bagels and other non-neon items), followed by
BASHBALL 2016Our now-annual Bashball game! (Dodgeball, Bash style). We have a RIDICULOUS amount of fun, one of the highlights of the weekend every year!
SATURDAY NIGHT:
Dinner at a local awesome place before the Saturday Night ANNUAL COSTUME PARTY. This year's theme:
ANIMATION!!!!
Are you our Neighbor Tortoro? Not bad, just drawn that way? Use your imagination and show us your favorite animated character!
The Saturday night party features more yummy snack-treats and drinks and the always-infamous BASH COURT: our own *wrong* version of the Court complete with lawyers (or whatever our Rhino calls himself) and our own Judge Dreddful, AKA NGO2. Sometime between OMG o'clock and the sun rising there'll be at least one Steak N Shake run, trust us you'll be starving by then
SUNDAY:
Looking somehow even more pathetic than Saturday morning we'll have breakfast at various local spots before descending upon my house for Sleep-Deprived Deviltry: you'll find Bashers eating, hanging out on my deck, playing awesome games like Cards Against Humanity, napping on my floor in piles like kittens, watching stand-up comedy a movie in my living room...Sunday is whatever we want it to be before:
SUNDAY NIGHT:
Still with us Sunday evening? Join us for dinner at a local place TBA before heading into Columbus for
BASH KARAOKE
A glorious Bash tradition, We have SO MUCH FUN usually followed by a late bite in the wee hours of the morning
MONDAY MORNING:
Breakfast and vats of coffee and hugs and SO MANY TEARS and airport runs before my post-Bash 12-hour crash
Casa Bella has room for Bashers on Friday and Sunday night, space IS limited; my house is little and cute but we have sofabeds and queen air mattresses and ample floor space for those with sleeping bags. First come first serve so email me ASAP for space at my little house. Saturday night: there are several very comfy sleep spaces in our connecting party suites: several double beds and queen sofabeds plus floor space, but again it's first come first serve so CONTACT ME. There are also two other very nice hotels literally 30 seconds of walking distance from the party hotel, when you've sent your Bash fee and info I'll send you our location and accommodation info.
Specific times and locations for activities (breakfasts and dinners, Bashball, karaoke, etc) will be sent out with paid party fees, and there will be a big huge copy of our schedule on a bulletin board at my place!
Party Fee: Paypal is all ready to go! Send your $37 ($35 party fee plus $2 for Paypal) to
[email protected]
PLEASE EMAIL ME when you've sent your party fee so I can send you a confirmation and your info as needed, cannot WAIT to see you all!!!!!!!!!!!
Newbians and those still contemplating: please peruse this past post, it should give you a good idea of the hotel costs and such: http://www.ticklingforum.com/showthread.php?205186-BELLA-BASH-FREQUENTLY-ASKED-QUESTIONS
Now then:
RULES FOR BELLA BASH: 
The Bash is known as a safe, fun, relaxed and groovy weekend; to keep it that way we have RULES:
1. ACT LIKE YOU WERE RAISED PROPERLY: My home, the hotel, any place we go, and especially your fellow Bashers are to be respected at all times. ASK BEFORE YOU TOUCH. Keep your hands to yourself unless and until you know your touch is welcome; that includes other people and other people's possessions.
2. AVOID THE BRUTE SQUAD. Rule #1 is very much enforced; gossip, drama, or anything else that disrupts the fun will be handled with the quickness. Seriously don't make me get all
on yo' ass
3. SAFEWORDS ARE ALWAYS RESPECTED AT BELLA BASH. Lees: don't be afraid to use one; Lers: safewords that are not honored immediately WILL result in your removal. From my home and possibly your skin. DO NOT TEST THIS!
4. COME TO BELLA, BRUCE, BYRON OR BILL WITH ANY ISSUES/QUESTIONS. Not sure where the restaurant is? Woke up from a nap with nobody at my house but Bill (it happens all the time)? Is someone acting a fool and you're not sure what to do? Do not hesitate to come to us, we're here to help!
5. GETCHA BOOGIE ON!
