MD * 02/27 SBS Laurel, Maryland - Maryland City VFD Hall - Full with a waitlist
02/27 SBS Laurel, Maryland - Maryland City VFD Hall
Hello Stampers. It�s time again for a Shoebox swap in Laurel, MD. Everything went great with my first one last September so let go again.
The shoebox swap will be on Saturday, February 27, from 9:00am until 5:00 pm, at The Maryland City Volunteer Fire Department Hall, 3498 Fort Meade Road, Laurel, MD 20724. This Swap will have no particular theme.
There will be room for 31 stampers (over 18 years of age please) to attend and each stamper will bring a shoebox swap for 30 people to make and something to share for lunch. There is a $10 non-refundable charge per person for hall rental and will need to be sent to me prior to the swap to secure your spot. Everyone who signs up must have a Splitcoaststamper ID. After you sign up I will contact you with the address to send in the fee. Anyone new to my shoebox swaps or anyone who didn�t provide me with their information for the last swap will be asked to provide name, address, home phone, cell and email. This info is for my use only if I have to contact you regarding the swap.
All cards are to be full cards. Please bring enough supplies for everyone to make your card including all cardstock, stamps, inks, embellishments, tools, etc., along with your own adhesive and basic tools (like scissors, bone folder, etc) to use on all the projects we make. Please make sure all of your supplies are labeled with either your name or initials, so we all go home with the stuff we brought. Each person is to provide a sample of your card for reference in your box along with typed instructions telling how to make your card. Please also separate you supplies in to individual baggies or envelopes containing everything each person needs to do your card. This really helps make the swap go more smoothly.
All cards or projects must be made using Stampin' Up stamps, cardstock, inks, etc. Stamps and colors can either be current or retired Stampin� Up! items.
Everyone is asked to please bring something to share for lunch. When you sign up for the swap, please post what you�ll bring for lunch. I will have access to the kitchen for ice and refrigerator use but not the stoves, so please do not bring anything to be baked or that needs to be heated up. Crock pots are always welcome.
There will be several door prizes throughout the day. This time I will be collecting trial size items for the Washington DC Ronald McDonald House. For every 2 trial size items you bring you will get 1 ticket. Suggested items are: tooth paste, soap or Body wash, shampoo, conditioner, disposable razors, tooth brushes, hair spray, cotton balls, lotion, mouthwash. The Ronald McDonald house provides a room for the families of Children in the local DC hospitals while the child gets care. These families may not be able to afford to stay in a hotel during the time the child receives treatment. The trial size toiletries are kept on hand for those who may run out or those who may end up staying at the house unexpectedly or at a moments notice, like after an accident. I will be drawing for at least 1 prize for the donations.
So, you�ll need to bring the following to the swap � your shoebox swap (any theme), something to share for lunch, and trial size items if you'd like to donate any.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Kathy

Reason: added state code to beginning of title
Please sign up Brienne Bogenberger and myself (Connie Seifert). She'll bring a dessert and I'll bring a Chicken salad w/mini rolls. We'll pay Saturday at Cindy's swap.
Ok, so I know I can 't keep things straight but people need to let me know when things are going to happen. I can't come to the swap because that is the day that they will be celebrating my grandson, Dylan's birthday. Sorry everyone. Next time. (I hope) Have a good time.
