Indianapolis DIS Meet - Come One Come All!

[GuardMusic]

Not sure if I can make it since it's the first weekend after school starts, but definitely keep me in the look on the time & location!

I think we can come! It may just be me and the kids if DH's schedule doesn't allow. I normally post on the Families board. There was just a thread about things to do in Indiana so I could hijack it and let people know about the meet. I know I tend to stick to Restaurants and Families. I saw your link when you posted about No Way Jose - my favorite also!

Anyway, it is me - Julie
DH - Gordon
DS 9 - Kyle
DD 7 (by one day, another August birthday!) - Katie
DS 3 - Joey

ADP - I am sure we are close to you. I live 1 minute from Fishers.

So glad you can make. Look forward to meeting you and the children.

I am in Terre Haute and I would love to attend, however we are leaving for Disney that day so I wont be able to go- I will keep subbe dto this thread to see how is goes, cant wait to hear all the fun you guys have! I love dis meets!!

 

[Sooze]

I love the pitch-in idea! We could start a list and keep track of who is bringing what, so we don't end up with 25 desserts and 1 casserole!!

Could we also volunteer to run activities with the kids? If a bunch of us came up with a game/craft/activity, then we can take turns leading the kids. I'd happily volunteer to do one!

There are TONS of ideas on FamilyFun.com (Disney's family-friendly magazine)

This is all great stuff Sooze...Thanks! If you wish to volunteer with the kids that would be wonderful. The meet will probably last 4 or 5 hours so keeping the kids entertained will be a big part of the meet. Maybe you could volunteer for an activity. Some of the suggestions I've received for kids activities are face painting, drawing sessions, and hula hooping.

As for the food I can keep a running tab on who is bringing what on the 1st post next to everyone's name. I plan on supplying paper products and beverages for the meet so that is covered.

 

[Sooze]

Hey! Does anyone that's planning on attending have a karaoke machine!? I have some Disney karaoke CD's (that I just sing to in my car )... the kids might enjoy that activity for a while!

If you want, Aaron, I could be the kids' activity coordinator! (That sounds official )

Once we solidify a time, I could sketch out a schedule and start filling in activities and who is running them (based on people's willingness to volunteer).

Let me know!

Do people think the kids would like a Disney trivia challenge? My older one would love it, but last night he was reading the Unofficial Guide for fun!

I saw a fun looking game in Family Fun this month. The kids try to put on frozen t-shirts. I could either look for cheap Disney shirts or buy plain white package shirts. If people think this sounds good, I can be in charge of it.

My DD is saying hot potato with Disney music for little ones.

I saw the frozen tshirt game! That looked fun! How about the 'fishing with your feet' activity? We could put Disney figurines in the little pool with bubbles!

I'm starting a list, then we can solidify! You are definitely in charge of the Tshirt game!

Love the hot potato game, too!!

DD wants to teach a drawing class where they draw a character like they do at the animation class at the studios...

 

[scarlett873]

A pitch-in sounds good to me!! Please put me down as bringing cake or cupcakes! We've got an awful lot of birthdays to celebrate!

We'll probably bring something else too...i'll wait and see what others are bringing to see if I need to fill in a gap somewhere!

Not sure on public places to have this at...yay for it being on the northside though! Wooo!!

 

[jennz]

I forgot to add above, we're bringing Kona wings (in honor of you Aaron )

 

[Serena]

I don't know what kinds of places are in fishers, but there is holiday park on the northside of indy, and there is a huge park in plainfield, there is also eagle creek, but you have to pay to get in. The park in plainfield may have to be signed up for, I don't remember.
If I think of any more, I'll add them.

Have fun everyone

That's great Brandie. I've marked it on the 1st post. Whoever tells me what they will bring I will keep track of it on post 1 so we don't duplicate.

I've checked a few public places already, but no luck. We'll secure something soon.

Kona Wings? Sounds like a great Disney recipe.

Put us down as a maybe. DH is on a job hunt at the moment so who knows what he'll be up to then.

But if we can all make it then it would be me, DH, DD (10), DD (4), DS (3) and DS (2)

I'm sure we could pitch in as well for something or other.

It would be great if you could join us. I'm sure anything you could bring would be wonderful. Good luck to DH and his job hunt.

My wife and I will try to make it. I have a soccer tournament in Bloomington, but if the schedule permits we will do our best to be there.
