Can Someone Share the Email for the 2010 Single Conference?

I am so excited about this!! I can't wait. However, I am a downer on the part where I am also getting married in 2010 and my PC show money is going to pay for wedding stuff and honeymoon in London. I really want to do both though!!! I would LOVE to meet everyone from on here!!

Can you use your conference club money to pay for your hotel? I am going to earn free conference registration also and didn't know what else I could use my club $'s on.

They reimburse you any money that you don't use from conference club. So you can turn around and use it for what ever you want. I'll save mine for the hotel.

Just wanted to sneak in here that DebPC and I will be planning a big ChefSuccess party during the conference 2010

 

[lauriedip]

that's great, let us know when!

 

[Dina Atnip]

I know this will be amazing. It will be very crowded in the meeting rooms and general session wonder how they will do that. Can't wait to be there.

 

[raebates]

That's fantastic!

Wow I'm so excited! I wasn't able to make this past conference and was looking forward to next year's. Now I'm looking forward to it even more. That Chefsuccess party sounds like a lot of fun and I can't wait. Thanks Greg and Deb.

We have only been in a small part of the McCormick Center during PC conferences - McCormick is HUGE, and I'm sure we won't feel crowded there.

I'd be more concerned about the hotels - especially the elevators.

 

[AJPratt]

I agree with Becky. We have just scratched the surface of McCormick Ctr. I found out the hard way!

can't wait to see how Merrill will handle all of us!!! LOL

That is soooo great! I didn't make it to the MNG this year and really missed it.

With 3 times the staff & 3 times the stuff I hope!

So when did this e-mail come through? 4 days rather than 3 and well, not majorly thrilled with that idea as of yet as that means one extra hotel night bill to pay for. That means an extra $200 plus possibly. Yikes!

I'm not majorly thrilled either! As a matter of fact, I already told my director that I probably won't go this time. Not only an extra hotel night, but, for those of us who work another job, it means taking off work another day!

NOPE... I probably won't go this time!

I know that attendance has declinded for conference. My first year I went they fill both levels of the Arie Crown Theatre. Last year (my third year) they didn't even open the balcony. I don't blame them for putting everybody together, hope PC and all the vendors are up for the challenge!

Just curious what are the rest of you thinking as far as the first day? I'm thinking of getting my plane ticket early this year but don't know whether to go early the 12th or go the 11th and stay somewhere less expensive the first night? Thanksjj16

I am planning on getting there on the 11th. I won't get a different hotel because then I would have to pay for a cab to move to the conference hotel and it just seems more hassle than it's worth. I always go a day early and around check in time so I can decompress and enjoy chicago before the hustle and bustle of conference

My question is, can you imagine all of us going after the surprise boxes? Oh my LOL Like it's not crowded enough one wave at a time but all three at once? YIKES LOL

Hmmm, maybe they won't have surprise boxes - or they'll have specific times alloted for different people to pick them up. They haven't always done surprise boxes - that's a fairly new addition to conference.
