I will probably post this again as it gets closer, but I just made my hotel reservations, and I am wondering if I can get a lift from someone to/from Chicago. I am going to the Second of the three conferences, hoping to get there on 7/12. I will be in Indianapolis (Carmel) visiting my in-laws, and would love to catch a ride up to the city with someone from that area. I'd be happy to chip in for gas/tolls/parking.

I am from MA, so I don't really know anyone in the area - can anyone give me a lift? I am full of vivacious conversation :D

Thanks!

Laurel
 
I live in Indy, but I'm not sure if I know anyone going to the second conference. I'm supposed to, but I'm trying to get it recheduled to avoid family conflicts. If I find out anyone is going to #2, I'll try to steer them to you. :)
 
My TEAM is in Wave 1 and I will be going up on Sunday and on my way back on Thursday. Sorry! I will try to find out if anyone in my area going in Wave 2 for you and let you know by PM. I would let you ride up with me since Carmel is next door to me if I was in that Wave!!! Will keep you posted!
