Allie Mo's Thoughts on Convention Sisters

[Allie Mo]

Hi folks,

I just posted the following and hope it is not too late to get as many of us as possible on the same page. Sisters rule....

Look http://www.carolinabelles.net/vb/sho...58&postcount=9

I realize it's late; but, can anyone think of something we can do that is inclusive and spectacular as last year's Circus?

Ladies, that Circus thingy we did was so much fun! It was the coolest way to feel included and part of the group! Kind of reminded me of sorority-type things. Bottom line, as a new-comer, it felt really good and then when we came back with our pinks, it was just awesome!

No, I can't think of anything as awesome as last year - but I loved it and wish we were coming on as strong this year.

Thank you ladies!! Love you all!!

Being somewhat of a "newbie" here, I really appreciate being thought of and included in activities. I would also like to reach out to those who are "newer" than I.

I think all of those ideas are great. The more participation, the merrier.

Some more ideas:

Fruit / vegetables
Animals (?)
Sports (imagine a Victorian skating outfit)

I'm sure there are better ideas that those out there. What can someone else think of?

[Weaver Gal]

Well, it is awfully late for a whole new project, but can't we capitalize on our Saturday Cancer Society presentation? I would think a group photo with the Cancer Soc. would be a nice centerfold, and we will probably all be dressed up for that, even if we don't have a "color" or "style" theme (or can we do our brown and blue if we have them?).

Then we can work on next year's idea.

[Weaver Gal]

Oops. I forgot we're in all colors that day for the drawing! Well, ok, what about that? How many are tied up in class then? I know Allie is busy with a class, what about before the classes start (and before the fashion show, we can assemble somewhere). Just tossing out ideas here.

Yes, wouldn't the Cancer drawing and colors make just the bestest centerfold ever!

Even if I don't make it, I think it would be wonderful to have the Cancer fundraiser be a featured item.

Black Jack McGuinnes, are you out there? Would you be able to get some photos? Of course, I/we understand you have no editorial control. A good photo of sisters (and brothers) united for a cause would make for a positive convention photo.

Bravo Weaver Gal!

I thought we were doing blue and brown dresses one of the days was it Friday? Is that enough of a sister plan? I've already got everything else planned out.
