Yes, thank you all.
Sorry, I've been having an ongoing 'senior moment' after having to help people with the Bingo question about having been at the NYC World's Fair.

Today was SO MUCH FUN!!

It was great to see old friends and meet new ones.
Everyone was so generous with their gift donations and their bidding.

We all enjoyed getting to know each other, have lunch together and raise money for the Power of 10 Challenge for GKTW.

Our favorite moment- and it got QUITE the round of applause and cheers - NJ put Nikki over the top for her $1000 Lox challenge!

Lots of cool stuff was available for silent auction and raffle. Everyone went home happy and already thinking about the next time we can get together.

THANKS EVERYONE!!

Can't wait for the next meet!

Hi Ros! It was a great event with excellent turnout! It seems like most everyone brought at least a few items with them for donation, auction or raffle. We filled up BOTH of the private rooms with people and auction/raffle items. This made it easier to meet, and get to know people!

[podsnel]

What a wonderful job you all did- I had such a good time talking Disney all day! Really looking forward to the photowalk with Kathy, too!!

Yes, thank you all.

That makes two of us who could sign off on that block!! Of course I was a mere child......

Just so everyone knows, I will be making a "music video" of pics from our meet. I'm collecting photos from everyone now and should have the video up tomorrow night. I'll post a link here once it is finished.

If anyone wants to connect via FB and we are not already, let me know! I'd love to have you.

By the way...

Anyone else on a GREAT high from yesterday?!

Why do you think I included that box? I can sign it too!!
And although I don't remember much from just last week- I DO remember the World's Fair!

 

[eeyorelvr09]

I had a great time and am looking forward to helping with the next one. I'll be a little more available to help with this one as far as the planning aspect. We had a great turn out and a blast. A huge thank you also goes out to Flemington Perkins for their hospitality for this event.

I was also [as a child] at the NY World's Fair many times, and my fondest memories are of It's a Small World and Carousel of Progress. The seeds of Disney Fanaticism were planted in me early!

Great job everyone!!!!!!!

 

[*NikkiBell*]

How very cool that all of you were able to visit the World Fair!!! That gives you major "cool" points in my book.

 

[DVC Kathy]

DH and I had a great time. We also took home less stuff than we brought, so we won.

Thanks to Nikki, and Linda, and Christine, and everyone else who worked so hard on the meet.

I was hoping to win dinner with John and Kevin, but I eventually chickened out of the bidding. I think Janet would have outbid anyone, though.

JustWinnie, I'm so glad you won the pins for your daughter. It was easy to tell how much she liked them.

Nikki, maybe there's a song about lox you can use for your music video......

Had a great time at the meet! And also, big thanks for the set-up, planning, etc so the rest of us, can just walk-in, meet-up and have fun.

And so glad, my auction items were won! I was a little half-afraid, it wasn't going to be. On the flip side, LOVE my lilthos!!!

I hope the office of GKTW loves our box o' good stuff for them.

Thank you everyone!!

I was afraid no one would want our auction items either. Which lithos did you win?
