lol-it takes a couple of hours to get through one city in texas... and 45 minutes to get through RI the long way!!!! I love my itty bitty state.
I'm from NJ. I've gotten lost and wound up several states away before. I miss the tiny east coast states, Texas is ridiculously big. And FLAT! Talk about shock moving here, I grew up with a view of the Catskills.
That was the one thing I still can't get over is how FLAT it is there.
LOL Corin!
Corin I know RI is so small.
Okay, it's a new year! Where's it going to be?
jajaja it's been on the plannign since last year!!!!! :)
I dont care about the where, WHEN is it going to be? :D LOL
Ummmmm.... can I have a few days to at least be able to call people and have them in their offices and not still on holiday vacation? Pushy, pushy.... ROFL.
Seriously, give me next week so I can call and actually make some progress and I have 15 other projects going on too so please know that this conference and the CDH Awareness Trademark (we start court proceedings in 2 weeks) are the highest priorities on my list.... but I am swamped and so I am slow right now.
As for a date - how is June 25-27? Is that ok with everyone?
As for where - either Corpus Christi or San Antonio. Right now most have told me they want it in San Antonio, but our TX Rep (Mel) is in Corpus Christi so it would depend on how much begging everyone does with Mel to get her to want to help out with it if it's in San Antonio. ;) It's harder, I know... our Raleigh conference was an hour and a half from my house and I did a whole lot of driving and calling to put it together. But ultimately, it depends one where we get the best rates for a hotel and conference hall.
Did you get my email on 12/22 asking for more info? As I've said, I'd be more than happy to call around and get rates but no one is able to give me anything without more information (specifically dates, times we need the conference rooms, what style of room ie. reception, theater, or board room, etc., how many rooms we'd be blocking, that sort of thing, whether we'd need meal service).
It's not a question of begging me to help if it's in SA, I simply won't be able to do anything. Michael is not the kind of child you can drop off with a sitter so you can drive two hours away to hang out for a day, and I know you know what that's like, Dawn. I want to help, but realistically I will not be able to. If the masses want it in San Antonio, that's great! Go for it! This is a CHERUBS conference, not a Mel conference, I'm sure you guys would have a great time if the conference was on the moon. =) I'm just letting you know up front that what I can do to help is limited by geography and what my child is doing healthwise, I don't want anyone to have any false expectations.
I 100% completely understand, Mel! Been there, done that! :) Really, any help at all would be very appreciated - we've never had a State Rep help with a conference at all before so any help is welcomed, even just a phone call! :) Besides, this conference is my responsibility, I don't want anyone thinking this thing is falling in your lap.... we're just so happy to have ANY conference help.... you just don't know! LOL. This year was the first year I'd had help and don't know what I would've done without the conference committee making calls. Even though I lived nearby, working another job and doing all our other admin stuff made it really hard to run around to get things done. This is a team effort and our conference committee is really going to have to rev up to pull this off. But we can do it! :)
And no, didn't get an e-mail... I think.... will check my spam folder.... (I really don't like Vista mail!)
I thought it was going to be in July?
A lot are saying they can't do July. I can do either. Should I set up voting? Date and town?
I think voting for dates and town is a good idea.
Whenever and wherever I'll be there ;)
Me too Fer!
I think a vote would be a good thing.
Ok, voting is set up! http://www.cdhsupport.org/members/vi...?p=38939#38939
Voting deadline is January 10th!
Will discuss this with Julian and submit our vote. Very excited about it all!!!
CANADA!! CANADA! HEHHE...ok so where was it decided? if bas was all good would love to travel....
Its in texas, either San Antonio or Corpus Christi, there is a new thread where we are voting on dates and a location if you want to take part, I think the link is on the page before this one.
