If you click on the above icon called "PC Files" (its one of the headings under where it says Welcome, pcillinois) there are all kinds of attachments you can download. There are alot of theme show fliers in there. When I first joined this site I went through them and downloaded the ones I wanted. If you wanted you can click on Search (again its under the welcome) and type in theme shows and it will pull up threads about theme shows. I think its easier though to look in the PC files. I hope you are able to find what you needed. Let us know if you don't.
So, I'm very anxious to get my kit. It has not come yet, I have a breakfast meeting at 7:30 this morning with my director, and all kinds of questions. I have 4 of my shows booked, 2 for June, and 2 book shows going and 2 more coming up in July. I'm excited about that and potential bookings for July too. Can I ask? what did all of you do for your first presentation? What food? My daughter who is 7 is helping me with this business, and I'm very excited about the training she will also be recieving talking in front of people and being able to handle herself well, and who knows she may have her own business and be financially set some day.
Have a wonderful day. Looking forward to chatting with you all.
God Bless

Thats a cute idea to have your daughter help you. I personally think kids can sell anything since they are so cute. Its hard to say no to them.
I used to take my little sister with me door to door selling when I was in high school-I sold alot more that way. 
I am not homeschooling (son is only 9 months) but I was homeschooled for a few years along with my brothers and sister. I know that it must keep you busy. Thats the great thing about PC though is it is so flexible. You do as much as you want to.My first presentation I had a show at my house. I didn't call it a open house because I wanted it to be an actual show. I made the garden ranch pizza as my demo. I made the banana toffee pizza and the salsa(can't remember the name of it) before the guests came. They were all recipes from the most current season's best. It was a good show and great experience. Definately a nice kickoff to starting my PC business. Good luck with yours. When is it? Let us know how it turns out.
