Right now I can't really afford this time wise or financially (don't like to use the ole Visa), but I'm going anyway. Reason, I definately can't afford to miss it!
This is going to be a real opportunity to learn some new tricks of the trade, get fired up, and meet some of you that I have not been fortunate enough to meet yet.
Another big plus is how can you not have a good time with Cheryl and Don?
If you have never attended a live meet, this is the one.

Robert & I are coming and we definately shouldn't be spending all the money. Going to Shep's woodgraining class at Nettie's too!
I've been ready for months. See you there!
Posted by Arvil Shep' Shepherd (Member # 2030) on :
I will be there........
"This will be my FIRST real live meet"
And I am really looking forward to meeting a lot of new friends .....and hopefully to learn some new tricks........as well....
"Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks????"

I was just logging on to bump one of the older threads too!
I'm looking forward to seeing old friends (even OP ) and making new ones.
Just about a week left for me. We'll be in around noon Friday.

Pierre,
E-Me your ETA and flight information...
We'll have a bum pick you up at the airport thursday afternoon! (our budget does not permit limo service)

Bump!
It sure would make Don and I feel better about spending money, if we had a little more input on who's coming to SANDCASTLE Panel Jam... We want to provide you with everything you need, to allow your imaginations to soar!
If you have communicated with someone who stated they are coming and they haven't posted here, let us know. Same goes for someone who said they could make it and now find it impossible. I have an earlier thread titled, SANDCASTLE list of hopefuls... It lists those who have acknowledged interest in attending SANDCASTLE Panel Jam...
Sitting in the hostess seat, I now realize the burden I may have put on others who have hosted a Letterhead meet...when I waited til the last minute to commit or send in my registration. Don and I are finding it difficult to budget for the unknown.
At least, knowing everyone's intent to attend SANDCASTLE Panel Jam, will allow us to budget more easily, more supplies and materials. At this point, Friday's registration monies, will be shuttled to the bank post haste, to cover immediate expenses! hehe
I know; If yer not livin' on the edge, yer taking up too much space!
We have received phone calls and emails from many who have not posted here... So, we are expecting a turnout of maybe 50 +/- victims of the Letterhead movement.
Many thanks, to those of you who have already sent in your registrations.
NOTE: If your registration will not make it to us before Friday, April 25th we would prefer you acknowledge your intent and pay at the door...
We look forward to your feedback...
Don & Cher.

i really wanted to go...and i actually checked out the airfares and hotels but then realized i have 2 root canals on monday at 8:00am..i've already cancelled this appointment twice...(like they're going to be gentle at this point)they would never make another appt again with me if i blew them off again...and good dentist are hard to find around here. i'll be going to the mass mayhem the following weekend though...i'm happy about that...maybe next year i can get my act together and meet everyone in that neck of the woods!
Posted by Luke Scanlan (Member # 2481) on :
Unfortunately, I can't make this one. I'm driving my friend's Land Speed Racer in Maxton N.C. the same weekend. It's the debut of our new car, so it should be a real gas! If you happen to see a BIG white motorhome, pulling a white enclosed trailer, with a six foot tall Rat Fink painted on the rear door, blasting up I-95, it's us. WFO! Have fun at the meet!
Posted by Judy Pate (Member # 237) on :
Roger and I will be there....somebody's got to bring the boiled peanuts!
Posted by Cheryl Lucas (Member # 1656) on :
another shameless BUMP!

MAybe next time... I'm teaching a wildlife painting class that Saturday too...have fun, I know you will anyway!!!
