Does anyone know if there are any future swaps being organized in southern Wisconsin?
I went to the one in Madison in March and had a blast--it was the first and for sure not the last one I have attended. I was not able to make the one in Menasha last weekend.
I know there have been some in the past in Milwaukee--was just wondering if anyone is setting one up.
Thanks, Barb
I don't know... but I just went to the Chicago Burbs one organized by Sarah Moore and it was fabulous.
I went to a Milwaukee one a few years ago - SCS gathering - and it wasn't near as fantastic as Sarah's last month in Chicago. Sarah gave away a TON of door prizes and there were Star Stamper break-out sessions.
I'm thinking about asking her to help me organize one in Milwaukee that was as great as hers.
Is there more interest if I work on this with Sarah?
I would be interested and I think 3 other SPC gals would go to! The one that I went to last weekend in Menasha that was planned by Mandy was fantastic.
I am trying to organize one for September in Green Bay. Searching for a site presently. There is a Tundra Lodge Waterpark Hotel in town. I'd like it to be near that so your families would have somewhere cool to hang out.

Hi Michelle! I am interested, and I know my upline would be and her downline (sidelines to me). We are in Milwaukee, too.
Don't forget about our little SCS get-together in Baraboo on June2! We have a few more spaces. Details are in the Cheesehead thread or pm me for more specifics! A swap, a picnic, a get-together and there is a great LSS in Baraboo close to where will be meeting!
OK.
1.)I think that we should start small with this little get-together so let's keep it to SCS members. Family can visit the Circus World Museum, hike around the lake or go to the Dells. There is also a great park where we'll be meeting with playground equipment and a city zoo...Ocshners Park across from Culvers.
2.)Let's meet on Saturday, June 2 at the Baraboo Culver's at 11:00 and pick up food and then move to the park across the street for fun and games. If it is too cold or nasty we can pick an alternative then.
3.)Up to 12 SCS stampers first time around and then we can make bigger plans for another date.
4.)Card swap. We each make 12 and take home 12 including 1 of our own. I'll provide containers.
5.) Let's each bring a gift for a game. Priced between $4 and $7 and we'll each get to take one home!
6.) Let's each STAMP our own nametags with first and last name and SCS identity as well. Maybe it should be a sandwich board to make it big enough...ggg. I'm terrible at remembering names.
7.) Be ready to have your pictures taken. BYO camera and then we won't have to worry about mailing the pics.
Enough info for now?
Let the games begin!
The first 10 people to email me at [email protected] win. (I have an SCS reader who is joining today and will be coming along. I'll add her name when she picks it!)
Let's get this bumped up to the top again and get some attention if we can.
I am hosting an SCS get-together on June 2 at 11:OO in Baraboo. Please PM me for more info and to sign up. We'll get food at Culver's and go to the park across the street and have a game, get to know each other and have a card swap.....make 12 if you decide to come.
We have 6 stampers in so far: Nookers63, stitcher1, Melv, stampinmomof2cuties, threeamstamper and Sara in WI (moi). Who else?
Please email or pm me directly. Thanks! We'll have fun!
OK. That's good enough for me! Welcome to WI !!! Are you an active demo or an avid stamper? Any great stamp stores near you? There is NOTHING in Platteville. I go to Madison and Baraboo for everything that need that I can't get through SU!

I just saw this and wondered if anything was happening on it. I'd love to attend & help plan or whatever. I'm in West Allis!
Depending on when & where - I'd be interested. Unfortunately, with season tickets for the Badger's in football & basketball - dates are limited starting in September.
my upline gave me some tracking info....for all packages to Sun Prairie, delivery dates are Wednesday or Thursday. So, presumably they're on their way!

OK so I'm thinking about having a shoebox swap and want to see how many people are interested. I'm in West Allis (right at the edge near Milwaukee). If I did it at my house I'd have room for at least 12 people but if more were interested I'd find a larger place to have it.
Price (not sure how much yet) would include food & drinks as well as a goody bag and door prize (not sure what yet).
Who's interested. I'm thinking late October or early November just because I have a lot going on right now.
