Mary is scheduled to sign pieces Saturday & Sunday: 12 noon - 1:00 p.m. so pack those bags (and moos) as Rosemont is just around the corner. We are starting to make a list of those who plan on attending,
email Carrie and Deb if you want to join us there.
We have a sponsor for our "Meet and Greet" on Friday night and also the party on Saturday night.
I was checking on the availability of rooms at the Embassy Suites (formerly Rosemont Suites) and the doubles are limited. Here is the information and number if you want to make your reservations. There is no minimum stay required and reservations are held until 48 hours prior to arrival. The dates of the show are June 29th & 30th, with dealer's day on Friday the 28th. The Moo Hunt Club party is on Saturday night with a "Meet and Greet" social on Friday night.
Mention that you'd like to be close to "Carrie Moos" and they will try and keep us together. Please email your itinerary to me and I will make sure you are notified of any other events or changes; other than what's posted on the web site and news page beginning next month.

Rosemont Sponsors - Welcome Aboard!
We'd like to acknowledge the retailer's who have signed on for our annual convention in Rosemont. Debbie Phillips of "Just For You Jewelry and Gifts" will sponsor our "Meet and Greet" on Friday night. This is when you pick up your name badge and meet your "Moo Pals". There'll be games, prizes and refreshments along with a few surprises...you never know what she has planned!
Our "Main Event" on Saturday night will be sponsored and hosted by Liz Ross of "Victoria's Mall"...including dinner! This will be Liz's first trip to Rosemont and we are all anxious to meet her in person. I'm sure she will put on quite a party for us! Complete details can be found on the news, web site and moo-sage board starting in May.
For more information on our sponsors, click on their store name and you will be directed to their web sites. Please visit them as they are always ready to help you with your cow-lection!
