Hey all you Illinoisians, wasn't it great when we met in Lincoln on April 2. Sue did such a fantastic job organizing the event and the cards were awesome as well. As announced/promised I am beginning to gather information or organize our next event. Moving the location might prohibit some people from attending who were in Lincoln but it might also enable others who couldn't drive that distance.
I need a bit of feed-back as to which date might be good. I am looking at August 6 or August 13, time would probably be 10 - 4 here in downtown Mahomet, IL located a mere 9 miles west of Champaign on Hwy 74.
Post your preference here and at the end of a week or so we will probably go with majority rules and also of course if the facility is available. Right now I am looking at an alternate site as well.
The Lincoln gathering was wonderful! I will be in Mahomet!! Let me know what you decide. I would prefer the 13th, but am available either one as of right now.

Well plan on joing us in August then and you can catch up on all the stamping excitement.
I am glad I found this thread, I haven't been into the GD forum lately since I have actually had to work! Count me in for this event and if you need any help just let me know! Thank you for doing this Sherry!
Just remembered that my future sister in law might want to join us. I told her she could stay at our place if she wanted to drive down for the event. She loved all the stuff we made last time!

Great, I am checking on the facility today and hope to secure it for Aug 13. Will keep everybody posted here.

I guess I should have said we will only be home for about 2 weeks in May/June. We are here in NC for another year and a half at least then its off to who knows where? We try to get to IL at least once a year. I miss fall so much, that is my favorite season and with the MC we seem to have to live in very HOT places with little to no change of seasons. Have fun at your next stamp day!

I vote for the 6th as I hope to attend the convention in Ohio this year. If for some reason I can't then I would like to attend the Mahomet event. thanks

So far it looks like the 13th is the majority. I am meeting with planners next week Wednesday to make the final date/time/place. :-)
Keep responding and pass word around to everyone since these tend to get buried in the pile.
I am so sorry it took so long to reply. JUST GOT BACK FROM COSTA RICA!!!!! We had such a great time. Anyways, I will not be able to attend. That is a little far for me to go for a day trip. I will keep watching this thread just to keep up on all of you though.
Have a great day and keep me on your list for next time.

Darn Randi, we will miss you heaps! Glad you had a great vacation though.
Mindy, I was just thinking about you the other day and meant to write to you. I couldn't remember when you said he was getting deployed and wanted to let you know that I was praying for your family.

Well thank you all for your much needed prayers!!!!! There are about 8 guys/girls going from his office alone on this deployment spread out allover Iraq. The prayers are much appreciated! Please keep them lifted up.
Hi ladies! Linda Broom and I had such a wonderful time in Lincoln that we'd love to join you in Mahomet on the 13th!! It's not too far from Bloomington and I think there's shopping on the way home..... We're really looking forward to it so let us know if there's anything we can help with from this distance.

I am thinking we might have it under control here in Mahomet. Several ladies from the Lincoln shoebox will be helping me. I will definately get more information out next week.
Keep passing word around so this gets up to the top of the list for viewing.
