We are looking for items to display and decorate in the registration area during the convention. We just need to borrow the items for the week, and we will return them to you to take home. We promise!
• Replicas of famous landmarks 12"-36" tall, i.e.: Statue of Liberty, Leaning Tower of Pisa, Eiffel Tower, etc. that can sit on the tables at Registration.
• Old globes
• Old/vintage suitcases
• National flags (other than USA)
• Any other items that have an ‘international vibe’ will be good.
We have 9 tables to decorate so we appreciate anything you can help with. You can reach out to Ann Silverman, Registration Chairman, to let her know you are able to help. Ann can be reached by email at bsilver104@aol.com.

A Houseparty Helper is a completed item worth $150. Who doesn’t love walking through the Houseparty Helpers on display and finding a few special items that you would love to have? New this year: Saturday night we will have two people drawing and announcing the winners so you can have that item into your hands faster. Donations can be mailed prior to the convention or turned in during registration times. Please contact Sherry Lackey at slackey6@gmail.com or 740-818-8949 with any questions.
Would you be interested in doing a Home Improvement Seminar? We are still in need of presenters. If interested contact Patti Trauthwein at markpt826@att.net or 904-6315586. These are fun options that are free for registrants to learn and go home with creative new ideas.
