[pfishgirl]

:woohoo: Just got my reminder email.... so Is anyone going to either the Orlando, Ohio or New Jersey Annual Memories Expo ???

[Spinning]

do you have a link>? I always forget about it till it is too late. I think the NJ one isn't that far from me.

[ValDisney]

Its the 1st w/e in june. I have gone the last 3 yrs. last yr i stayed for the crop. Maybe we can have our very own scrapping dis meet.
Valerie

[havencruiser]

I would love to go to the Jersey one, too! Is there a link for it?

[pfishgirl]

I went last year just for the day..
maybe this year i'll do the classes and crops :thumbsup2

[havencruiser]

Maybe those of us planning to go to the crop can get a DIStable?? :grouphug:

OK....are there 5 of us ready to register? The cost seemed to be $150 for 5 folks to get a table dedicated to them.

Valerie

[havencruiser]

I'm in, too! OK.....are there three more PA/NJ/NY DIS folks out there ready to commit???

[Lizzy1004]

Count me in too!!!

[Queenie]

When is the Orlando one? I'd love to join you ladies but it's cost a little bit too much for me to fly to NJ just to go!!

[jedi_librarian]

Grrrrrr. They used to have one in Chicago several years ago, but they don't anymore. There's only one other one that I know of in the Chicago area but it's in April. Wish there were more.

[czycropper]

I'm going to the Jersey one :banana: :banana: :banana: It's only about 15 minutes from my house (going the very back way) and I usually help out a friend of my mine who has a booth - don't know if I'm doing it this year.

Maybe we could meet for lunch. I'm hoping that they'll have some good vendors this year. I know that Junkitz will definitely be there and I also saw that SEI will be there again this year.

[ValDisney]

i love junkitz.. and sei.. i jsut went to an SDv and saw their superhero paper. I didn't even know they had another line coming out. i'm def looking foward to see what embellishments they have to go w it.
Anybody who wants to join us, just add your name.. I never met anyone from the boards at WDW, so maybe I'll get to meet some people at the expo.
Valerie

[Queenie]

I got the SEI superhero range last week for doing the Marvel Super Hero Island at IOA. Looks absolutely fantastic!!

[czycropper]

Were you at Absecon???? I was there this weekend and actually got 20 pages done which is the most that I've done in quite a long time. I'm one of those slowwwwwww scrappers.

[pfishgirl]

How many crops/classes at the expo do you all do??? :confused3
I didn't do any of them last year because it was my 1st time there and I registered late, the classes were full.. :guilty:

I was thinking about trying one this time.. I don't think I could do too many as my first time but I'd like to try at least one.. :teeth:

I LOVED all my free stuff last year and all the free make and take items.. My DS was drafted with me, I didn't want to go alone, but he ended up having fun and his Tags came out better then mine... :rotfl2:

I was at Absecon.. I am slower then you. I did 12. i also took 3 classes. I was in the ballroom and I had a scraprack with me. I was working on our universal trip. I thought I would be so fast and also get to do the disney cruise too. What was i thinking? :rotfl2:

I want to go to the one in august in camp hill. where do you live? I'm in rockland county ( new york).

[BernardandMissBianca]

When is the Orlando one? I'd love to join you ladies but it's cost a little bit too much for me to fly to NJ just to go!!

The one in Orlando is November 10-12.
Go to the link on page 1 of this thread and there is a link on the Memories page for the Florida show.

We might actually be at WDW that weekend for the Food and Wine festival.

[czycropper]

ValDisney - I was in the former "tent" now the Bayview. I live in Central Jersey very close to where the Expo is going to be.

12 is good for the Cruise pics. I'm working on our big WDW trip in 2004 (I've done about 35 pages) and I still have to work on our quick trip down this past Thanksgiving (I've done 4 pages on that one).

Maybe we could meet up at Expo. A friend of mine has a store close to Expo & she was a vendor last year (not sure about this year) BUT she has lots of Disney/Parks stuff.

Camp Hill, PA? I don't think I can get enought time to hit the one in NJ alone but if somethinig is PA I might be able to do. Camp Hill, PA is very close. :thumbsup2

as it gets closer , lets make a plan to meet. Do you think you would like to stay over and do the crop? are you going to any other SDv's. I am hoping to make it to camp hill in august.

[czycropper]

It all depends on whether my DH gets a new job...he's applying for a couple down south. I'm hoping to hit Whippany since it's about 45 minutes from me.

I hear that Camp Hill is wonderful!

[ValDisney]

i went to Whippany last yr. I might go again. (its about 1 hr away) I hope get a teaching job so i might go down fri-night.
let me know your plans.

[pfishgirl]

I was wondering if anyone else was going to the NJ one in June.. :confused3
How many ppl are doing a class or the Dis class?

[czycropper]

Have they posted the classes? Last year Melissa Ackerman & Sony did a fantastic Disney class - I haven't talked to them in a long time so I'm not sure whether they are teaching this year.

ValDisney - we definitely need to meet up. I'm not going to the Crop put on by Expo but I may go to the one at the Doubletree if it's done again.

[Disneymommie]

Ok newbie here, I have never been and am thinking of goin to the one in June. I would probably just do the expo. Could my 10 yr old daughter go?? She loves to scrap. (I mean to the expo not to the crop) I am to affraid to goto the crop because my pages are just not all that. They are very simple and would not want any pro's mocking me... :rotfl2: :rotfl2: (Thats what they would be doing)

Maybe a class but then DD has to stay home and I would be all alone!

[PaulaSue]

Sorry if I missed the answer. Are you guys talking about Camp Hill, PA? How do I get more info on the event?

Registration starts March 5. we will def meet up. Anybody who wants to meet, we'll set up a place and time. Also, lets see if there is a group for the crop. I really enjoyed it last yr.
children are allowed at the shopping but I think they have a age req. for the classes. Check out the website.
camp hill was mentioned for an SDV. (weekend of scrapping) .
speak soon

:rotfl: I drag my 15 year old son for the same reason.... and... His stuff comes out better then mine :worried:

[Disneymommie]

I would love to do the bootcamp class that I see they have in the OH one. Hope they have it in NJ! But I am back to having to leave my 10 yr old DD home. Unless I could find the age for children, but i do not want all those other people to give me evil looks if I bring her(she is well beahved and no one would even know she was there. Oh well I will have to see what I can manage!

[ValDisney]

I don't remember what the age was to attend class. I personally would not give any evil looks if someone bought their child with them.

[Fire14]

I'd love to go shopping at OH one and I just might.

[becky7953]

I am off to check out the info on the OH one!

[pfishgirl]

Did anyone set up a Meet and Scrap for Dis Board members in NJ yet? Did we have enuff people interested in doing this?? I don't know exactly what needs to be done, but, if I can help in any way, just let me know.. :thumbsup2

[graygables]

How does this compare to CKC? If you had to choose, which would it be?

I think reg starts march 5. I would do the crop on friday nite and stay over. who else wants too? we need 5 for our own table.\even if you don't want to do the crop we can still have a meet. who is interested?
i plan on going both days.
Valerie

[czycropper]

There is also another crop at the Doubletree that I think may be better which I'm thinking of doing. If I don't go crop, I'll definitely be willing to meet up. The classes are to be post on Mar. 4th is what I heard.

[havencruiser]

I want to go the NJ event. Is there anybody organizing the sign-up to get a DIS group table or tables?

[Disneymommie]

I am going to the show, not sure if I am doing classes or the crop yet. So if anyone plans a meet in NJ let me know!

[ValDisney]

i want to sign up but I don't want to crop alone. the crop was alot of fun.. AC Moore gave out bag with alot of goodies and thier were prizes during the whole crop.
anyone want to join me..
signup srts this w/e i believe.
valerie

[ValDisney]

registration starts tommorrow.

[havencruiser]

I plan on going to the show and the crop in NJ. I would love to do it with other DISers!

[BeccaGrace]

Isn't it a sin that I live 20 minutes away and have never made it to the Expo!?!?!?

I'd love to meet up with some fellow DISers and possibly join in on the crop as well (my non-Disney scrapping friends are being non-commital so whoever finalizes their plans first Dis- or Non- is who I will scrap with!!!)...

And how do we find out about the crop at the Doubletree if they do one this year? Does it have prizes & goody bags like the Expo one? (I'm a sucker for goody bags & prizes!!)

[ValDisney]

ok reg starts tommorrow.. i would love to do the crop with other dis people. it sells out fast (esp the one on fri). let me know if you will sign up , and I will too. I loved the crop at the expo, great goody bag and prizes. So if someone lets me know, i'll sign up. it will be fun.

[czycropper]

I have the information and registration form for the Doubletree Crop - you can PM your e-mail and I'll be glad to send it to you. I was told by the organizer that it was filling up fast. I was going to sign up but Friday is when we're doing my DD's bridging ceremony - so I won't be able to go to the crop.

[ValDisney]

let's get the party started. Friday's crop is already sold out. I reg for saturday's crop.
if interested go to the website and sign-up. we can arrange a to meet b4 the crop and then sit together. it'll be alot of fun

[Eeyore'sthebest]
