This was my first HO event so I had nothing to compare it too... BUT the consensus amongst the seasoned people around me at Columbus was the same. They were surprised that the hosts were reading - there were no signs in the hallways - people were getting lost. It almost seemed like they were unprepared? I was wondering if maybe HO being closed down for a lot this week took away a lot of prep time.
Speakers were good. Not near the excitment as NC but how would you ever compete with that! You never could!! Good tips. Marna Ross was one of our speakers and she was awesome!! Such a very funny lady. She did a take on her show demo (short version). I got a lot of points from her.
I felt it was worth the $55

Stinks that they didn't give you an official list of price changes ... confirms my feeling to wait a few more days for the changeover ... I am turning in my own show and want to snap up products that are going up in price.

and of course, the unveiling of new products was exciting. The only downside to our trip...a 6 1/2 hour trip from Hartford back home was a nightmare. We had rain, sleet, thunder, lightning and the closer we got to being home, the heavier the snow was falling. It was a lousy ending to a great Spring Launch.
Those of you who haven't been yet - ENJOY and I hope you have safe travels!

I was also there and LOVED it! This was my first so I wasn't really sure what to expect but it far exceeded anything that I had in mind. I believe that they did say that the Special Edition CN would be included in the Change over package that we will be receiving next week.
I'm super excited about what we will receive for the Level One of SAT...PLUS the new product that I earned for the two shows in December!!! From what I've been told, Level One is much better than last year's Spring Launch.
We had several very good speakers but I guess the one that I enjoyed the most (I enjoyed them all!!!) was Tisha (I believe this is correct) from Ruston. She was the last speaker and the "Where's Waldo" analogy really struck home with me. I have one who is supposed to sign this week and I'm supposed to talk with two others who are interested in the business.
