Teach Soap

I posted this on the CP board, but then thought it might belong here.....
Just wondering if anyone was going to the Alabama Soap Meeting in June. I'm considering it, but have never been.

Hi Carrie!
I'm headed to the meeting in June. I'm counting down the days now! I've been several years now and really enjoy going, I'm sure you would too! You'll meet some really interesting folks, see some great demo's and get to shop on the side too, lol. I'll be coming in from northeast MS, what area are you from? I don't post too much here, but usually check in to the forum pretty regular. Hope you decide to go, I promise you will have fun!

Carrie,
I live in Pontotoc, but work in Tupelo! I've actually been thru Cherokee & Tuscumbia quite a few times going over to Florence. Tupelo is about an hours drive down the Trace from Cherokee. The Alabama Soap group also has a meeting in mid January in Athens, AL, it's small but it lets the nothern people touch base and they usually do a co-op buy from Columbus Oils. There are quite a few soapers from that area. You should really try to come in June, you'll meet some great folks!

I think I am going to register (need to decide today!), as hubby is encouraging me to go. There are a few factors that are making me a bit hesitant, but I don't think they're insurmountable . Thanks for your encouragement....makes me more excited about venturing out (down) there!

Hi there-I want to go to as its only about 1.5 hr from where I live. I am hesitant as I would be by myself. also, I understand you really need to go to both days right?

I keep thinking there must be a way for soapers in an area or state to support each other. If I lived in Washington we could all descend at Otion once a month! Hey Genny, have you heard of any thing in this state? Maybe I should e-mail my teacher?

alabama49,
If your that close to the meeting, I say go for it. I know the official registration has closed, but you might still be able to get in. I know it has happened before, they just didn't get a goody bag or a booklet. Here is the website where you can get some contact numbers. http://www.alabamasoapmeeting.com/ If you can't make it this year try to come next year! You'll love it I know! I didn't know anyone when I first started going and was a little leary about going by myself, but I have a great time every year. All of the ladies are super nice, hey they let this MS girl come, I know they would welcome another Aalabama person. What more can you ask for, friendly folks, great demos, vendors to buy from, garage sale tables from other soapers and great food!
