Pampered Chef Meet and Greet in Wisconsin: Interested?

[pcchris]

Dianevill and I were briefly conversing the possibility of a MnG for the WI cheffers...I "know" of a few of you...would anyone be interested in that? Just putting the idea out there...obviously it wouldn't be for a while...whaddya think? We're in all different NC waves, so we thought it'd be cool to try a local one. Has anyone else ever done this before? Not just WI, but anywhere? (I'm not trying to exclude anyone...IF it happens and you're able to come from other states, that'd be cool!) What say you? Anyone interested?

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

Sure - as long as it's not in Ashland in February.

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

And...I know who WON'T be there!

 

[pcchris]

And...I know who WON'T be there!

Who?!?!??!?!?!?!?

 

[pcchris]

And, no I don't think it'll be in Ashland!!

Will have to wait and see where everyone is, and kind of centrally locate it, if possible.

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

Who?!?!??!?!?!?!?

That would be the Clucker Cluster.

Anyone else? I know there are a LOT of you out there...or are you just not interested? (maybe you're at conference)

 

[The_Kitchen_Guy]

Actually, I'm in Iowa.

 

[pcchris]

Oh. Have fun THERE!

Are they growing lots of fuel?

Oh... don't get him started on that... for KG's "thoughts", check out his blog.

 

[pcchris]

I am in Tomah (west central WI). There is a Jellystone Campground/Resort in a neighboring community (Warrens). We are the heart of cranberry country. If we do this the very beginning of October, families could come stay at Jellystone in either the new lodge/hotel or villas can be rented and sleep up to 12 people. There is an indoor waterpark - good for ALL ages of kids - and I can set up an extra-curricular event to help everyone learn about cranberries. The first two weeks of October is when cranberry harvest is in full swing. My husband manages a cranberry receiving station in Warrens, and there is also a Cranberry Discovery Center that will help people learn about the history of the industry. The only down side with the Jellystone thing is it would cost the family money to stay. If people aren't interested in that, there are other options around here for meeting places and we could still do the cranberry tour. Of course, I would also have cranberry recipes for everyone! Any opinions?

Ethanol plants are springing up around here like dandelions in a new subdivision. There is such irony in ruining a good cornfield for an ethanol plant. What a waste of good farmland.

So tell me more about this meeting... I will be in WI again August 11-13 and come up there at least once a year (the August trip will be the third time since March). If I can be there I will.

 

[janetupnorth]

I have a full summer, but will see...

July 27-29 - visitors by me
Aug 3-6 in Racine for a wedding
Aug 18-19 people up by me

But I will see where it fits in with me...
