Dear National Conference Attendee:


We are looking forward to a wonderful time at National Conference and especially to celebrating your business success at Nancy Jo Ryan’s Executive Banquet on Tuesday night, July 17.


Since this is the year of ‘007, our “theme” for this event is “Mission Possible”. We thought it would be fun if everyone wears black & white (resort dressy) along with their “coolest shades”!!!


The Banquet program will start at 7:30 PM sharp!!!! Please try to arrive by 7:15 PM to find a place to sit so you won't miss a thing!


Following the Banquet and time of recognition, you are invited to join Nancy Jo, along with several other Executive Director’s groups, for a time of dancing in the Grand Ballroom at the Hilton (the same room as our dinner).


We’ll see you all in July!
 
Yeah, wasn't that nice to find out 2 weeks before the meeting. I know it's hard to believe, but I don't own anything "black & white" (no black pants, no white shirts or vise versa). I do have sunglasses. Might go shopping but not betting on it.
 
I forgot to add this part. . . Grrrrrrrrrrr!
 
I had originally heard about the resort dressy and had something totally different in mind - I have black and white. The thing I will probably bring is going to be all black Should I get some flashy shades as an accessory I guess??

Borrow something from a relative or friend ~ since it sounds like you may not wear it again!

Woo hoo! Found a totally cute black dress at Target for $5. I have a white cardigan I'll wear over it and I'm done!

If I have time, I may try to find some "goofy" shades.
 
I have a girlfriend joining me for conference, and we're going to try to find sunglass hairclips....

I'm thinking of getting some cheap shades and "bedazzling" them. A hot glue gun and lots of sparkly things go a long way.

My cluster will probably think I'm nuts. :)
