I'm looking for someone that doesn't want their conference bag. This is for my director who isn't able to make it to conference this year, either. She'd like to either buy or trade past conference bag(s) if that's what your interest is.

Thanks!

Crystal
 
Did we get any insider info on what the bag may be this year?

I'm nervous, you mean like totally different and maybe we should bring an extra bag to conference????:confused::eek:
 
The pocket bags at leadership for the recruiting postcards was cute...
I've very curious...!!...as always!
And with the cranberry with white stripes one...hmmm...maybe a backpack type, or a ROLLING ONE !! Ohhh...that would be great for our catalogs/etc...mine is heavy with the lap boards I use...

Those in Wave 1 & 2...don't ruin any surprises for us!

What bags does your director have...which conference bags?

Hmm, now I'm wondering the same thing.
 
Do we normally get a bag?
 
Yes, we get a tote of some kind at registration for hauling our junk around. :) It comes with our packet, name badge, and RUFTH trivet.
 
I don't think we have anything to be nervous about... no worries. She said "different" not WEIRD!!!!If you're in wave 2 or 3 and are flying, you'll probably see the bags in the airport as you arrive carried by those who attended an earlier session. So be on the lookout!

Ahhh, Good Point!! MY eyes will be WIDE OPEN!!! LOL:eek:
 
ANOTHER thing to look for in the airport! My DS wants me to look for Jimmie Johnson (NASCAR Driver). The Chicago race is the night before, and he thinks I'll just be able to "bump into him" at the airport! He doesn't comprehend how HUGE O'Hare is! LOL!
 
I questioned HO about the conference bag since we'll also be earning that striped bag and I wanted to be sure I brought one if we weren't getting one AT conference (the striped one ships after conference). They said that we do not have to bring an extra bag - what they will give us will do the job!

I have just decided that I'm a bag lady. I love bags. Anything with a special bag and I'm a sucker. Just had to put that self-admission out there. I've said it & now I can start to do something about this obsession with collecting bags. Not purses. Just big bags. Like totes. Love 'em. Especially special edition ones. :D

This made me laugh as people actually call me the bag lady. (OK, on here that didn't sound so good!) I don't carry small purses unless necessary. My current purse is the PC Catalog tote and before it was the PC ribbon tote. (I love the ribbon tote, but I kept ripping the lining!! :cry:)

That is really Great news!! Thanks Beth.. I am now at ease. Somewhat!! LOL

thne race was there last year while we were there too.
There was a huge NASCAR tent set up in the park right outside of Navy Pier. Thye had a few cars there and souveniers and such. Not sure if any drivers were there signing autographs but if the tent is there again you should check it out.
 
Oh wow! We're flying in Sunday morning.........I hope they do it again and that it's still there the next day! Little man will be so excited!

Most athletes don't fly commercial... they charter and those gates are usually separate from where commercial passengers are anyway...
