2012 MPG - Were You There??

[jeff]

Wow, what a weekend! Talk about FUN!

I noticed that there was no sign-up sheet. I'd like to put an IAP attendance list together, just so we can remember who all we talked to.

If you'll follow up to this post, I'll edit all the names into one list.

How about, Real Name, IAP Member Name, and where you're from.

I'll start!

Jeff Brown, "Jeff", Westlake, OH

THANKS!

How about we add our zip codes!!! This way, a "mapping program" could give us a "heat map" of the folks who came---just to see what the approximate "average miles driven" would be!!

Ed Brown--ed4copies--Racine, WI 53403
Dawn Kizer---PR_princess---Racine, WI 53403

And Dawn and I just got back to the office, safely. Thanks to ALL who made the weekend so enjoyable!!!

Looks like local people. Some day we might get a gathering here in the state of fruits & nuts. Or make it at least as close as LV.N.

Except for two "fly ins", I believe you could find everyone was within a 500 mile trip.

How far WOULD you travel for an event that featured "name" pen turners?
