welcome!We are so excited to provide an opportunity for you and your loved ones to share your JOY and GIFTS with the world through our first ever Virtual Talent Show FUNdraiser! Below you’ll find some ideas and the contest rules, as well as a detailed schedule of how voting works!
Why a talent show? Every summer at our ECHO retreats, after a few days of diving into the Theology of the Body, we host a talent show - giving our participants a space to share, not only the gifts they have, but the gifts they are! It is ALWAYS a highlight of the week, getting to receive the person in front of us as they make a gift of themselves! And now, YOU'RE INVITED! As we navigate these difficult days, we journey together! Here at Dumb Ox, we wanted to give you and your loved ones an opportunity to share your JOY and GIFTS, to get CREATIVE and have FUN! We encourage you - get everyone involved (while practicing social distancing, of course!) Parents, get your kids involved. Kids, get your parents involved. Get your pets involved. Just have fun! But I don't have a talent to contribute... As Kathleen mentioned in the intro video - BOLONEY! MALARKY! At ECHO talent shows, we've seen everything from Disney medleys to TOB-inspired song rewrites to beard shaving. |
check out the intro video:WHAT KIND OF TALENT CAN I SUBMIT?We want to see whatever talent you have that you can show us on video! We encourage you to involve the people you’re social distancing with and GET CREATIVE! Ideas include and are definitely NOT LIMITED to:
WHATEVER YOU DO, JUST HAVE FUN! |
