Lori,

You are SO sweet! There is absolutely nothing to be forgiven! I am blessed by your presence on this board. :D Plus, it is always wonderful for moms to WANT to meet us and spend time at our booth. I took it as a complete compliment! :wink:

Blessings,
Carrie

Any chance you have a trip to Arkansas planned? :D :?: No pressure...just curiousity!

There are conventions in Springdale (2 there last year), Searcy, and I think Little Rock and/or Conway.

Carrie- Do you know what convention might be closest to IL that you will be traveling to? I fully plan on being at IL but if there is one that is close enough distance wise perhaps I can meet up with the other two mamas on here from central IL and we can carpool to a convention. Just a thought.

We did exhibit in Chicago several years ago, but had a very difficult time with the layout of the convention being at the University of DeKalb. The attendees actually had to take a bus/shuttle back and forth between the speakers and the vendor hall, making little to no traffic in the exhibit hall. The exhibitors actually were sitting around practically twiddling their thumbs! So, we most likely won't be back to Chicago for quite some time. :wink:

We don't have our schedule all set yet, as some of the vendor invitations are just coming in November. We will have a schedule quite similar to last year, with the possibility of one or two new shows. :D We'll post an update on the website within a month or so when plans are more finalized. :D

Blessings,
Carrie

Carrie, I wanted to ask if you have ever used, or have considered using, fellow HOD devotees to volunteer to help you display and explain your beautiful programs around the country? It might be another way of spreading the word into other parts of the country that you just cannot personally visit. Just curious. :)
