Hope to see you all in Chicago! Watch for me walking for 2 categories! I will have a black dress with coral colored stuff all over it!
 
Happy 4th to you too! I didn't know they were going to have us walking on t-shirt day or I wouldn't have bought the t-shirt! Haven't yet decided which outfit to wear which day. You are much more organized than me! LOL
 
Happy 4th y'all! Have fun and stay safe!
 
That is pretty poor planning to have recognition on the new t-shirt day and on the day when many run to catch a plane.

On a different note, I will be watching and cheering you all on! Happy Holiday everyone! See you in a few days! (I may park myself outside of the UL Reception to 'hob knob' and make my own meet n greet since its in my hotel.) LOL

No I get the tshirt thing on Saturday - its the people that are walking on that day that I think is poor planning.

If they would have everyone walk on Thurs and Fri and get it over with (sorry I think its the most excruciating thing to sit thru, even when I walked) and then Saturday just have it be fun, fast and over (with their tshirt concept) - people can be more casual for flying home too or not worry about running and changing in the bathroom.

the letter I received with my certificate for my Excellence awards says I am walking on Thursday the 7th. Does yours say something different? I earned 2 categories
 
I think that new promotions walk on saturday...
 
Sat's 10-12:30 General Session they will be recognizing new Directors, AD's, May Wahoo Challenge & Jean's Gems. So those are the people who will either be walking in the t-shirts or skipping out on the t-shirt concept. I'd love to dress down that day, but don't want to try & carry nicer clothes to run & change into to walk & then change again. I'm sure whatever I brought along would be nice & wrinkled. :(
 
Other than breakfast and Merrill, the only thing happening on Saturday is the General Session ao I don't see a reason to bother changing unless those who walk want to get more casual for the trip home.
 
How did you all find out when recognition is?
