FAQ Sheet
Is This a Collector's Weekend?
No. This is a first time event (hopefully there will be more) but it is no way connected or affiliated with the Matt Sherman BCW’s or any other Bond related event. While there will certainly be an opportunity among attendees to swap, haggle, trade, that’s solely at your own discretion. This event is brought to you by Charlie Axworthy (Bryce – 003 of CommanderBond.net) but is NOT a CBn event.
What is a "Dare To Be Bond" Weekend?
It's an adventure weekend for those that want to be Bond and share the adventure with other like minded fans. Whether you just enjoy the films, or you've read all the books and have entire sections of your home filled to the brim with Bond memorabilia, Dare to be Bond lets you become part of the adventure by testing your secret agent skills - just like Bond.
It's not about making a buck either. This is a non-profit event. Hosted by a fan, for the fans. There's only three ways to make money off of Bond (you work for Eon, your last name is Broccoli or you sell your collectables on Ebay), and none of them are (or should be) sticking it to the attendees.
Do I have to be 21 to attend?
No, you don't. Anyone 18 and over may attend, however certain events (noted with a 21+ next to them), due to local laws are limited to those 21 and over only. And you must be 21 or older to be in the Casino areas.
