I have my kids cooking camp on August 12th and 14th. Several of the Mom's are coming and helping this time around. I asked 2 of them that I know well to be the "hosts" on those days so that they could be eligible for the kinfe giveaway. I told them that they would be considered catalog shows and that they could get orders and see if it would qualify.

Do you guys think this is a legit way for it to be a show??? KWIM????
 
I do't see why not? Give them a few catalogs and order forms to boost sales while you are at it.
 
According to the "rules"... catalog shows don't count. :(

Eligibility
All active Consultants who register Cooking Shows, Bridal Shows & Fundraisers during the Challenge time -frame (August 11-16) are eligible for this drawing.

But doesn't the show have to be "going on" when they call in order to win?

Yes, absolutely. I assumed that they would be.... Will HO only call during a certain time frame? If the show is early in the day, will they call then?
 
Hmmm... I don't know! Maybe someone who's won could tell us! :)

I think the show has to be happening when they call. I looked at the registration form and it requests a time. I have called my friends and they are more than happy to stay and help with the camp (it's their kids plus a few more) and then collect outside orders. I guess that is pretty equivalent to a Cooking Show anyway!
 
One of my team members won in July. HO called during the show, so yes, the show needs to be going when HO calls!

It was very exciting for her! One of my newbies won!
