Cabin Fever 5.0
Join us February 10-12, 2023
Are you still on the fence about attending the KC RG this February? Check out our speaker line up! These are the speakers we have scheduled. But there may yet be more surprise speakers. It’s not final until it’s over!
FRIDAY:
Check in early enough on Friday to enjoy some KC BBQ, a beer tasting hosted by LocSec Curt Krambeck, and a poker tournament.
SATURDAY:
Catiara Marie, Tarot card reader — Catiara will give a presentation on Saturday. She will set up a table to do more readings if needed.
Kevin Winer, Director, Kansas City Police Crime Laboratory
Robert & Kelly Pascuzzi, [Editor’s note: CANCELED!] authors of the book The Ravine, which was made into a movie in 2021. The authors recommend you read the book or watch the movie before you attend. It will make their presentation much more meaningful to you. And if you bring the book, they will autograph it for you.
Dr. Russell Kohl will share first-hand experiences, knowledge, and stories gained across multiple large-scale disasters, giving a human perspective of the responders and victims while also gleaning lessons to prepare us for future events.
Soup Contest and sandwiches for lunch.
Tim Marks, KC Improv — Tim will put on a short class on the art of improv.
Theresa Maze, Belly Dancer — She will have a short class and demonstration on the art of belly dancing.
Nick Padgett, Executive Director, Padgett Productions – Nick will talk about the shows his company puts on and how he got into the business.
Jodi & Kitty Solbrig will teach Modern Swing, also called West Coast Swing. Modern Swing gives both dance partners the opportunity to take speaking and listening roles in the dance, much like a conversation that you have with your bodies. They teach using a system called Body Language Curriculum which focuses on the structure and grammar of the dance so that you learn Modern Swing in the same way you learn a language. Instead of learning dance moves (like speaking from a phrase book), you learn the basic building blocks of Modern Swing so that you can create your own dance sentences. After one class, you’ll be able to apply what you learned and dance Modern Swing in the wild.
SATURDAY EVENING:
Daisy Bucket & Tajma Stetson, Drag Queens extraordinaire – Daisy was voted Best Drag Queen in Kansas City, 2019. In addition, she is a member of the internationally famous Kinsey Sicks Dragapella Quartet. Tajma won Miss Gay Missouri America 2022. They will provide some after dinner entertainment!
After the dinner and dancing there will be a wine tasting led by a local sommelier, our own Arnie Millan.
SUNDAY:
Racquetball tournament, awards ceremony.
