Would you be interested in a sphynx convention?

[kiennasmom]

I would be willing to help however I could if someone else was "in charge". I don't have any experience with planning big get-togethers or activities but I do have a freakish "love of organizing"!!

 

[Maggies mommy]

I want to meet every 1 & the kittys i woulnt bring magg tho because she is not going on a plane! we could take pics of us all together & post them on the site!!!

 

[Mews2much]

I would be willingto help also.

 

[English Dave]

That would be cool! Would anyone consider Missouri (HAHAHAHA, yeah right)? It's almost right in the middle of the U.S.

We could have our own lol!

 

[ElGatoLoco]

Well, when I win the lotto I'll send you all a plane ticket and hotel voucher. So ya'll send me a positive mental note so we can make this thing happen. I'll set it up, I'm STILL unemployed.

~~~~Positive vibes comin' your way!!

 

[MrsBones]

I'm in favor of a Sphynx convention!

 

[Marnasobsession]

OK...so some suggestions as to when?

 

[MrsBones]

In the spring, maybe? So the kids aren't too hot or cold? If we're going somewhere warm (with the exception of the current recordbreaking weather) normally this time of year in Orlando is quite pleasant

 

[Marnasobsession]

Most people are suggesting Las Vegas. I only live 2 hrs from there. Most will leave the babies home at least this time. Anyone who wants can certainly bring them if arrangements can be made.

 

[Mews2much]

There is no way I can do a east coast meet up.
Maybe we can do a meet up when there is a cat show somewhere and I cam bring my sphynx.

 

[MrsBones]

I think we are going to have to do divisions then... I'm 22, work in retail, and, right now, am the sole breadwinner in my household. I can't do Vegas

 

[Mews2much]

It will have to be done by the area we live in.

 

[kiennasmom]

Hey all,

Just wondering if there is still any interest in this? If so, did we pick any certain dates? I have to schedule all of my 2011 vacation days before the end of the November otherwise I will probably not be able to get off for it. I think it'd be fun!

 

[Mews2much]

We are poor now so unless I find a job I will not be able to go.
Marna had talked about April in Vegas and there will be a TICA show there then but I need to find a job or we are not going.

 

[sphynxie]

Just read all the posts here and I love the idea of a "Lair Convention"! Maybe each year we can rotate locations like this year Vegas, next year Florida, then midwest etc. etc. Keep me posted- I already have my suitcase and carriers ready

 

[kiennasmom]

Would anyone be interested in a Sphynx Lair Cruise? Maybe just a 3- or 4-night out of Florida in the Spring sometime? It would be less expensive than Vegas, with built-in entertainment & lots of space for us to hang out in groups if we wanted. Granted, our kitties wouldn't be able to come along but most of us wouldn't bring them to Vegas, either. I would probably be willing to organize that!

 

[Gullivers Keeper]

Vegas or a Cruise are our 2 favorite ways to spend time off, no kitties for the most of us I assume anyway, but it would be fun to hang out with you all!

 

[ktate88]

I think me and Mo will have to take a vacation and come to Vegas! Oh we have always wanted to come to Vegas! Mo could wear his special sequin jacket to visit the casinos. LOL

LOL, Oh I would love to meet Mo in a sequin jacket!!

I am game on for a sphynx convention! Niles would also be very excited Tell us where and we will (probably) come! We like FL(cause we are here) but Vegas would be awesome, too!

Wherever we go we need to set it up at a pet friendly hotel and get some kind of special rate for all of us...

 

[susi794]

I live in Michigan, but can get way better fares to Vegas than Florida....although I LOVE cruising. In order for me to go it would have to be spring break--and not quite sure when that is this year---will check and post it tomorrow. But getting someone to watch my animals is another consideration for me besides the money....but I would try my hardest to make it. I would love nothing more than to meet all of you!
Hugs,
Susi

 

[marlene]

I wouldn't go on a cruise, I get nasty seasickness that even prescription dramamine won't prevent. I would love to go to Vegas and meet everyone, provided I don't end up using my vacation for health issues like I have for the past 3 years.

 

[ckutkuhn7]

At this time I'm not able to count myself in. I'm unemployed and unemployment barely pays the bills,,much less the thought of a vacation! lol I would certainly look forward to the stories and photos tho!

 

[Sianne_and_Alice]

I'm just about 2 hours from Vegas, and I'm TERRIFIED of being on open water....so I vote Vegas!

I'll being cookies!

 

[fezmarie73]

My neighbor just got back from her honeymoon in Vegas, so I got to hear her stories and see pictures. I have family there and I've been missing it. But I like Florida, too, especially Ft. Lauderdale.

 

[Melonie]

I vote Vegas! I won't be bringing kitties.
