Title: Planning date for Summer Fest 2018
Post by: howdyheidi on May 24, 2018, 09:30:27 AM
In the General chat, several of us have been wondering about a fest for summer months. Usually we have had this in June, but a few people have conflicts in June.

I suggested the second week of July and several people are available. 

I wanted to start a thread here because I know several members do not read the general chat.

From the general chat, it looks like Jan, April, Cindi, Connie and Heidi (me) are available the second week of July for a fest...

I did post a photo in the gallery hoping to direct more people to this thread.

This is great, Heidi. I hope more people will see this and be able to join in! The 2nd week of July is best for me.

April :smile:

Thanks for starting this.  I'm in!  The 2nd week in July is good for me,  I can't do the end of the month.

I will be watching my grandsons all of June and July.
I will try and jump in when I can.

Sheila, that is good to know that neither June nor July is totally open for you. I hope you will have some time to play along.

Also, I realized that I called this Summer Fest.  We used to call the June fest AIR.  What do you think?  The reason I changed it was only because I couldn’t remember which one was the summer one, but I kindof like the ring of Summer Fest, given it may be in hot July....

AIR stands for Artsy Inkers Reunion since it was the 1st challenge fest celebrating 1 year anniversary of being at AI.  I don't care about the name as long we can use an acronym in the title of our gallery posts. Guess the final decision is for Sadie...it might depend on what changes she feels are needed on the forum board.

Beth (Canadian eh) sounded like she would try to participate and Nora S said she cannot do it in July.

It seems like we have gotten all the feedback we are going to for this fest. What should we do?

It would be nice to have more people ... but I still enjoy our fests, even if just 5 or 6 of us do each other's challenges.   I'm still good with the 2nd week in July.  I don't think that changing the week will make a difference in the number of participants?  Maybe we will catch more people in October?

Our Summer Fest will start in less than 2 weeks!  Just a reminder that you can be thinking about what you are going to offer for a challenge or chat!

I just PMed Sadie to ask her to set up a forum for us. I did suggest that we probably don’t need a pre-fest planning forum, because most of us will be offering a challenge.  Please do keep in mind that you might not want to peek at the challenges until the fest begins!  :( #>

Looking forward to it!

I had an idea for a challenge before, but I didn’t write it down, so will need to keep thinking!

 I am looking forward to the fest in 2 weeks! Yeah! I do have a challenge in mind and of course BINGO. I can't wait to be challenged!
