I was thinking the same thing, Do you think it will come to NY in the near future.
I can't travel to Texas, I use a respirator, and can't fly, I have to bring to much medical equipment.
But if it ever comes to NY, I will be there with bells on! It sounds like a ton of fun!
 
the convention is held in a new state every year... not sure if they've done New York yet.... I'll cross my fingers for next years...

thumbelina I will be there with you with my own bells on too LOL...I wonder when it will ever decided to come to NY....or has it already????
 
I was just thinking, Maybe it came already. Sure hope not. sounds like something I would love. even if it was in NJ or a close state where I could drive. Drag someone in my family along with me.
Maybe next year.
 
In the past, there has been a northeast sweeps convention. It may be something for you guys to look into.

I think Sweeps777 and Thumbelina have the right perspective. Sweeping is a hobby. Although we would all love to attend the convention, reality must come first. Sometimes, real priorities get in the way. With the rising costs of fuel, health care and necessities such as food and electric, many people are not able to do the fun extras. It's what's know as being an adult! :cry:

I just wanted to applaud the two of you for knowing what is important and actually what you are able to do. If I find info on the Northeast convention, I will let you both know!

I hope those going to the convention have a great time. For those staying home, win something big! :sunny:
 
I won the money for my registration fee, now all I need to do is win the hotel money which is $438.81 since I have a private room. Otherwise I may need to get a roommate.

Ok, it's official, me and the girls mailed out our registration fee on saturday... weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... can't waittttttttttttt
 
2009 ~ ATLANTA!!! This is one that maybe just maybe I can get to! Down around my part of the country! I was hoping Nashville, I could drive to that, but I might could swing Atlanta if I can hitch a ride somehow...

It is a long way away, but SA'ers can start thinking about it now!
 
I got through a friend of mine! I will try to come up with a link. She had really wanted me to go to Texas with her, but there just wasn't anyway. Now the tables are turned! She is on the other side of the country and I am going to be pretty close in 2009!

I will see what I can find out! I don't know if there is a direct link or not...
 
Girls Someone needs to DOUBLE triple check the PLACE... I dnt believe its ATLANTA... I had a SGT site ADMIN from my dept close friend tell me the 2009 convention is in NH... The 2009 convention will be held in Manchester, NH. The NH girlies have already secured a convention center and are completing contracts with area hotels. No information will be released until the 2008 convention in order for 2008 to get the full attention it needs. If Im reading your POSTS wrong I am sorry , I believe you are speaking of the 2009 convention>??? Gunny Hunny
