[CARAN52]

Hurry Hurry Registration must be recevied at our post office box by September 27th or before the time we post that we have sold all available registratons. As of this posting that is less that 48 days left for mail and be received in time.

Don't miss out. It wil definately be a lot of fun. The committee has been working really, really hard to be sure you all have a great time and take home a lot of really neat memories!!

A majority of the registrations so far are first time convention attendees and there are a lot of them coming that do not know anyone. Don't be shy. We will see that you have a good time and sweepers really bond quickly. Just ask KB and the other sweepers who have attended other functions.


Remember, unles we sell out soon, the doors will shot closed on September 27th. there will be no drop in or at the door registrations accepted for this convention. No extensions for registration.

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

One month left to register......let me know if you still haven't registered and are planning on coming. I am trying to get a firm count for the caterer and to give the vendors an idea for supplies, etc. Thanks.

[Karen_246]

All registrations must be received by the 27th of August. Still some more spots open, and it looks like a wild Friday night dinner is getting underway for you OLSers. See Positivelift's post.

It is September, I think CARAN just mistyped :gvibes: She probably wishes it was still August right now as I imagine she is going crazy:laugh:

[CARAN52]

Thanks for catching and correcting that for me. Look at what time it was posted and you'll see that I had to pull an all-nighter just to try and keep up with things. The ANN-tics business was starting to take a back-burner and I couldn't let that happened, especially since there are two OLSers that I owe stuff to. One is done and in the mail and the other is ready for print.

Yes, I am going nuts but I wish it was the end of October. I don't ever want to go back in time again.!!!!!! lolol Well, we just got over one large hump, only one more to go.


And my answer about the indecision is ------------ jump and and go for it like the rest of us......Hey, KB and Rob. I am trying to come up with some chocolate shots. I already have chocolate covered cherries and chocolate cake. Any other good ones??? Must be chocolate. There is something with white chocolate == think it Godiva but that's to expensive for us. And Rob, is there any places right near the hotel that sell mums, etc. if we run short??

[positivelift]

Mums may be available at Hershey Nursery or Pumpkin World -- both are located in Hershey.

[CARAN52]

Thank you very much. There's also some nice houses along the way that have some in front of their houses. lolol Road trip!!!! Only kidding guys!!

[kbsocial]

I am trying to come up with some chocolate shots.

There are some less expensive chocolate liquers out there. Mix that with some Rumplemintz and YUMMO!:toast:

[CARAN52]

Hmmmm. Like a peppermint pattie????? That's a thought. Give the name of some of the cheaper chocolates. I'll buys some but don't want to buy any that tastes like poop.

[CARAN52]

Effective immediately (actually Midnight Sunday, Sept. 24th) we are not taking any more "banquet only" registrations. However, there still are some full registration spots left.

See you all soon.
