I am expecting around 400-500 people. I am just guessing though. Several people have received the flyer, and have know about the event.

I will say we have spent around $1500+ on food alone!

So there will be plenty to go around.

I hope people just come out and enjoy the party. Mingle, win some gifts, and make some friends...

These events will be every few months.

Please print out the flyer and pass it out to your friends. Tell them about the event.

BTW, PARENTS!!!!

Print out the coloring sheet above, and ask your kids to color it in. Bring it in with you to the event.

I will be passing out kids shirts. We have YS, YM, YL, and YXL. Once they are gone they are gone.. So make sure to bring it with you.

To all the parents that will be bringing kids, we will have a table set up for those kids that didnt draw it in, to do so there.

I am sort of pissed. I ordered 3 HUGE signs for the event. I dont think they will be ready before the event. They were 5 feet x 10 feet! I was really looking forward to getting them, but the dummy shippers, did it STANDARD shipping. Pisses me off. I could care less what the cost was to get it here Priority.. Just ticks me off. I was really looking forward to them getting here. Oh well. I guess we will display them for the next event..

2 more days!!! Hope all the parents have asked their kids to fill in the coloring sheet. I think the kids wearing the T-shirts will be very cute!

I would love for Parents to send in their photos wearing the t-shirts after the event. We will have an album created for all the photos!!!

We will be scanning all the coloring sheets, and posting them to the web, so all the parents can see the art work..

Thanks Yoko for the words of encouragement. 1 year of my life I spent building this to where it is.. Its been long, tiring, and frustrating, but its to celebrate it. I think getting 60-70,000 people per mo, is more than an accomplishment. It will just continue to grow. We get called every single day, with new connections, and business prospects to work in collaboration. Everyday, I get emails its really getting crazy busy.

I will announce several new things we will be doing in the future at the event. Its exciting, to see it all grow from nothing...

I think what will be announced will shock some, but its going to open a lot of doors for MANY people in the area.

Remember, we are here to help. If you have an idea, please just shoot it to me. We will build and develop any concept people can grasp. It may take us a few weeks/month to develop it, because I only work on the site part time, but WE WILL GET IT DONE.

All those that are coming to the event, please bring your cameras, to take pictures.

I would like to build an album later on, and display all the photos that were taken.

If anyone would like to video the event, I would really appreciate the help.

I was only doing it for people close to 10+ years. I am going to be creating an option for you to change that figure on your profile, and it will display under your posts.
