Okay, I promised long ago that I would post something in the forums to see if others might be interested in a midwest get-together. I know there are digi-scrappers who live somewhere between Nevada and New York so why shouldn't we have our own meet & greet?! Sooo, a few of us have been talking and we're looking at setting something up for later in January and maybe somewhere in the South Bend, Indiana area. Location and date are still completely in the air so any suggestions are welcome. We could go further south like Indianapolis or maybe further west towards Ohio. Just depends on where everyone would be coming from. So who's in? Let us know if you'd love to come but there's a weekend in January that wouldn't work for you and also give some input on the location. Those that have laptops can take them along and maybe we can exchange secrets.

UPDATE: As of December 21st, we are meeting on the north side of Indianapolis on January 15th, 2005.

How cool!! I haven't checked my calendar (or with my DH ) but it sounds awesome!! I'm in Ohio so Indiana or Ohio would be great.

Hey, I'm in! I live super-close to Indianapolis and I'm willing to drive a bit as well if the location changes. My youngest turns 3 on Jan. 22nd, other than that I should be open.

Wooo hooo! Look at all of us Midwest scrappers!! And hey Lynne, I turn *ahem* 3 on the 22nd of January too. Well, add another digit to that but close. LOL How do y'all feel about the last weekend in January so we've got plenty of time to do some planning and find a great place to meet and settle on a city location for that matter.

And come on, I know we've got some Illinois people, that counts for midwest, doesn't it?!

I just saw this Shawn! I'm in Illinois and I'd love to do a gathering - sounds awesome! I'm open on location......but Indiana sounds do-able.

I'd love to make a try at it, but I suck at driving in really harsh winter weather(lol)

I'll pay attention to the updates on it all.
