The question is top secret at the moment, but will be revealed to facilitators on the first day of the Big Chin Rub festival on 12th July.

You can register your interest by emailing the team with your name and details of your group, school or
organisation  and we will send you out a pack with everything you will
need to make your Big Chin Rub a huge success!

The festival takes place 12-16th July 2010 so you can hold your event any time during this week. They will be asking all groups to post their final thoughts, ideas and conclusions back here on this website.
We’ve also got a film crew covering some of the events so if youre interested you could be lucky enough to be chosen to be on the BIG CHIN RUB film!
