Less than a Week NoW!

We have about 30 scrapbookers/cardmakers all signed up to take part in the crop this Saturday. Can you believe it is less than a week? Neither can we - so much to do yet, to make sure you all have a fabulous day. There are goodie bags to pack up, tables and chairs to pick up and set up... The list is longer than that, but I just don't want to spoil any surprises.
Registrants should have received the 1st of 2 emails late next week.
The 2nd will go out early this week - it's your reminder, with a few more ideas of what to pack etc.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

More UPdates

We're very excited to see the order forms coming in for our crop. We had carefully measured and calculated how many we could accomodate at maximum, and while it doesn't appear we will sell out, we are definitely going to have a fun day!

After some discussion and deliberation over what constitutes an adult, we've decided to include youth in our event. We are assuming that they will behave as though at an adult event, with respect and maturity to those around them. And we're thrilled that they've caught the scrapbooking bug, too!

We're overwhelmed with the generosity of our donors and will begin packaging up the goodie bags and doorprizes. It's just going to make for such a fun day!

Confirmation emails for those who've registered are going to go out this week, so watch your inbox! If you haven't registered yet, but would like to attend, please contact a competitive dancer, or us:

More Thank yous!

A huge thank you go to the following:

Local Stampin' Up! demonstrator, Lisa Jewer of Waterloo.

Heather & Sharon of Ninabrooks Designs

And we received a donation via DT member Bev, who works with Xreaxions 4-in-1 punches, from

As the donations continue to pour in, we hope the tickets sales do to!

Tonight is the deadline for families to submit their ticket order forms. It will give us an idea of where our numbers are. If we are not yet sold out, we will take late registrations.

Just a reminder...

We are very excited about the response to this fundraiser crop! The ticket sales are starting to come in already and the donations keep coming, too. We feel very blessed!

We did want to remind you that this is our first attempt at an event like this. We have been asked if teens may attend. After careful consideration, we have decided the answer is no. We know lots of teens who are responsible and considerate, but the reason is because we initially sold this as an escape from home/family/work distractions to get your scrapbooking done. For some attendees, scrapping with teens, even if they are not their own, is not conducive to that escape - too reminiscent of home.

We hope you understand. As we gain more experience, we may (actually already are) consider a teen or mother/daughter crop in the future.
