Hi Dawn

I am planning on attending - coming from Nova Scotia Canada- this will be my first OH Event.

I had an email and someone asked me if there is a spot to try on clothes at the exchange room I said I would ask so I guess you gals would be the ones in the know.

Thanks - cant wait to meet everyone.

I will be celebrating my one year surgiversary on June 10th and this is my celebration gift to myself.

hiya

this will be my first oh event so i'm not really sure what to expect. at the clothing exchanges are there usually just the larger sizes of clothes or are there also some smaller sizes as well? (i mean like size 00 jeans, xs tops... things like that.)

If you are there on Friday, be sure to stop by the clothing exchange table and say, "Hi!"  We LOVE to meet new friends, no matter where they are from!

 

Tell someone that you love them!

hi everyone

 

Im actually in AZ but will be attending your event on my way to see my b/f in Milwaukee!

I attended both the big 2 day event in 2007 and the 1 day event last fall in AZ & had such a great time that Im thinking of attending at least one out of state event every year!

looking forward to meeting new people

Especially for those who haven't attended an OH event, the hotels are almost always chilly, so bring a sweater!  They frown on us bringing the blankets off the hotel beds!  They usually keep the places cool, because they tell me it's easier to make it warmer than to make it cooler, so FYI, come prepared!

Hi there...all of this great, positive talk is really giving me good vibes about this event.  I see that a lot of you have joined the Chicago event group on OH, and I'll be posting important messages there from time to time, so keep your eyes open for those updates!

Sincerely,
Kim
