Hello Floyd!

Thank you so much for the background on OH Indiana!  This is very good information for us to know, and we're glad you're all such friends.  What a great bunch of outings!

We're looking forward to meeting Indiana this weekend!

See you soon,
Kim

Kim,

Thanks so much for all your help.  I appreciate you working hard to get the Indiana group together.  We're a pretty active group.  I started a mailing directory and have over 170 people on it.  Also, do one for the Over Fifty Forum and have about the same amount on it too.  I'm looking forward to seeing some of them at this event too.

Last weekend we had an Indiana event at Holiday World (amusement park in southern Indiana).  It was our 2nd annual trip. 

We also have a yearly camping trip to northern Indiana.  It has grown from 7 the first year, to over 20 the second year.  Who knows this year?

Our annual Christmas Ornament Exchange at our house has really grown too.  Over 40 people last year.  Not sure if our house will be big enough this year.

So you can see, OH Indiana (known as the Hoosier Losers) is a very active part of OH.  Look forward to meeting you this weekend.

Topic: CLOTHING EXCHANGE IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Hello Chicago event attendees!  For anyone who is bringing in clothing for the Friday Exchange, please drop it off at the hotel's loading dock.  They do not want it brought through the front entrance of the hotel. When you pull up, ask the valet where to go; they will have instructions.

It's getting close!  Don't forget to bring sweaters!  This is a  lovely but chilly hotel!!

Thanks!
Kim

Have a safe trip, Kim.  This is soooo exciting.  11 states represented.  I wish I could meet every one of these people personally, but there just won't be enough time.

Do you have an rough estimate about how many people you are expecting to be there?

What about the seating for all the different speakers.  Do we have to change "rooms" to see the different speakers or are they all coming to the same venue.....stage.....or what to speak.  Because they are all so close together back to back speakers.....you know?

Hi! Both of your states are going to be well represented!  I'll be at the hotel on Tuesday, so I'll work with catering to get you all situated in the same realm!  It's great that you all have friends across the boards!  This is the most activity I've seen in all of the events; I think there are 11 states represented at this Chicago area event, last I checked!

Woo Hoo!

Hey Bo, I'll be coming up with the group in Indiana.  2 others will be with me but like Christie said, there are several coming from IN.  Can't wait to meet everyone. Everybody bring paper cause I'll want your e-mail or somethin" for my new friends.
