Hi all. I have been on CS for years as a reader only and have no idea how to post a question! Please forgive me. With co-hosts, they both get the 10% discount for the year then, yes???
 
To Brenda.the. chef, I will be attending Evansville's Fall Launch. Can't wait! Would love to meet up with some from the group that day.
 
Am I missing something, or is the launch information (such as location directions, registration times, parking, etc.) not up on CC yet?

Go to the Fall Launch page on CC, click on the big orange button for where Registration link was (it says now closed) -but it will list the locations and link to directions. At the top of the page it says
Check In: 7:30 a.m.
Event Begins: 9 a.m.
Event Ends: 3 p.m.(I'm on OLD web...so not sure if it's different for new.)
 
Thanks Bobbi, somehow I overlooked the "view venue info" under the registration closed, or maybe it wasn't there the first time I looked. Thanks again!
