SCAL-ebration...A get togther of SCAl and Cricut Enthusiasts

[Rebecca McConnell]

I'm here in SE Missouri and would love to come. Ohio wouldn't be a problem as long as the meet is in warm weather . Rebecca
p.s. If there is any more of you from the southeast side of Mo and would like to meet here, let me know.

I am thinking some time in the Spring for safe driving!

I vote for Fremont Ohio too. I live about an hour from there.

Another GREAT place to shop is Hollos Paper in Brunswick, Ohio. You can buy a pound of cardstock for only $1.50 and it's great quality. Bargains on envelopes and mailers too.

Here's the link to the store:

Not sure how long of a drive it is from Fremont, but well worth the trip if your driving. (LOL, Bring some boxes if your driving as no one leaves there without buying a ton of cardstock and paper.) I've heard from some of the people on Splitcoast stampers that they drive there in a caravan from Michigan once a year to stock up on everything and their vans are stuffed when they leave....

Forgot to mention Stamplistic stamp store in Amherst Ohio. Another great place to shop: http://www.stamplistic.com/

Not sure, but I'm guessing less than an hours drive from Fremont and she has room in the store for classes.

And there's another big scrapbook store in North Olmsted Ohio called Archivers: http://www.archiversonline.com/

Bumping this! Are we a go for Fremont? Here is a map.

I think Fremont is about 1.5 hours from Hollo PaperCrafts. My BF was just at Hollo Paper and she said it was fantastic.

Here is pic of the drive!

First of all, please forgive me for not replying sooner. I've had the dreaded H1N1 for two weeks!...it has run it's course through our house starting Oct. 18th! I'm pretty much back "normal" now. So....

I talked to Lynn at the Scrapbook Attic in Fremont OH. She said "Sure!" She just, understandably, would like more details....like how many days are we talking? A Friday and Saturday and/or Sunday? or? She said she would charge minimal for use of the crop room....she was thinking maybe $5 per person (not sure if that is per day or ?)
I will talk to her tonight and see for sure how many "Cricuteers" her crop room will hold, seeing that everyone would need their cricut and their laptop. Again, her website is www.scrapbookattic.net if anyone wants to check it out. She also has a little snack/kitchen area. We could always have our meals there, to keep costs down. When she has crops, sometimes she just brings in homecooked meals.
I was thinking maybe we could all meet there....those within driving distance, and see what everyone thinks? We could do a trial smaller-scale SCAL-abration. And then go from there?
Your thoughts? Any certain questions you'd like me to ask Lynn tonight?

That's about 2 hrs from me, so I'll be there if I'm free. Besides, I can't wait to check out Hollo's.

I know! I can't wait to check it out, too!!
