It's nice to see that someone else is counting down! I can't wait!!
 
LOL....i am counting too...but since this is my first time I am not really too sure what too expect. I think I am going by myself this time so will be looking for friendly faces.

What usually happens on Friday? I don't have a babysitter for that afternoon and was just going to come in the evening - will I miss much?

Thanks

who has started packing?

i need to go buy a dress :( i hate shopping for clothes
 
You gals need to start a "Wave 4 Countdown" thread in the Conference area - really confuse us Yanks. :)
And, yes, you SHOULD have a get-together with other CSers. That's one of the things I'm most looking forward to! I'd send you some buttons, but I'm out. You can order some from my Cafe Press shop (link in my siggy), and you'll have them before conference starts. :)
 
hey heather...nah I don't need the hotel as I only live 40 mins East on the 401..so no point for me really!

Hopefully we bump into each other!

8 days to go!!!!!!!!!
 
On the check-in level of the Royal York, there are lots of comfy seats and such. There is a huge clock by a spiral stair case that is impossible to miss - good meeting place. There's a Starbucks over in BCE Place, that's walking distance.
Usually, on the Fri aft, there is an Executive Director cluster meeting - so I believe you are in Cathy Barber's downline, right? So every consultant under Cathy, would be there for a big cluster meeting. It's fun - but you won't be missing out on anything too big. :)

If the announcements and new products are like ours, you folks are going to have a FABULOUS time!Just an FYI, though. Deb has posted that we'll be able to share conference announcements starting 9am CT on 7/18. You may want to stay away for a while so you're surprised at your conference.

I don't have any more buttons here at home. I'll be ordering some later in the year for Leadership-goers and others. I'll post when I've got them, and we'll work something out. :)
