Trying to start an Empress Chapter for eastern states
« on: May 17, 2008, 12:38:36 PM »

Hi,

I have recently been contacted by a fellow chinchilla lover, Robbie Strayn, from TN.  She is talking with Ralph and Barbara Shoots about organizing an Empress Chinchilla Chapter for the eastern states.  If you are interested please email her at:   robbiestrayn@hotmail.com  .


Thanks,
Janice

 ::banana::Hi--I have also been contacted by Robbie!!   Myself & some breeder friends of mine are sooooo excited!!  We can't wait  until the chapter gets started.   I may get to go to my very first show.  Didn't say I would participate, but give me time & I'll get there.  Just all the things I hear about make it sound like so much fun.  For now I'll just sit & wait.

I'm sorry you won't be able to attend!  Hopefully next time.

The date was chosen so that Ralph and Barbara Shoots would be able to make it from Ohio.

Does anyone know what the itinerary is for the 3 days?  I am trying to decide if I can go & if so, what days I might want to make sure I am there. I know they are all important, but I may not be able to stay for the 3 days.      ~JANE*

Hi Jane,

Right now the tentative schedule is to have the meeting start around 1:00pm on Saturday the 27th and will go until.  I don't know if we will carry the meeting over.

The reason for the late time starting is that the meeting room is being used up until noon.

Hope you can come!

Well,  on the 26th (Friday) we'll get checked in.  I don't know if people might want to get together for dinner or not?  It will be up to individuals.  On the 28th (Sunday), check out is usually at motels around 11 or 12 so I guess people will be getting up and leaving.  Like I said everything is tentative right now on the planning except for the meeting to be around 1:00 on Saturday.   ::chinhappy::
