    In case anyone needs to know, admission is $2 for kids age 13-17 and free for under 12. So I only have to pay for 2 of my kids.

    There are at least 2 of us from the Fort Wayne area heading to the Kokomo show on Friday. Can't wait.

    I'm planning to go on Friday (tomorrow). If I remember to, I'll print out the membership card and pin it to my purse or something. I'll probably be wearing a pink shirt w/ a plaid mickey mouse on it and denim shorts or camo shorts. Probably won't be there until 1 pm or so.

    Oh -and I sent dh to the bank with a check that I got for online surveys and when he gave me the envelope with the cash, he had added some $$ to it. What a guy. :mrgreen:

    I will print off my card as well and pin it to my shirt. We are leaving Fort Wayne around 8am. Planning to spend the day, or until my feet give out! :roll:

    Went but didn't see any others with cards. It was pretty crowded though! And will probably be even more so tomorrow. I spent almost $100 (which is actually not bad) but had lots of fun looking at all the booths.

    We were there at 9:45 and had to wait 10-15 minutes in line to get in. I, too, spent about $100. Saw 4 other gals from our Project Linus chapter in Fort Wayne. I didn't see anyone else with the cards, either. Was fun to have so many shops under one roof!

    Do they have this every year? I got quite a few papers while I was there and haven't studied them yet, but I think one was for the same deal, same place, next year.

    The paper I got for next year is for a quilt show with 300+ quilts, vendors and appraiser. I'm not sure if this was the 1st year for the "hop", but was first I had heard of it.

    This is the first time for the event...the quilt show is every other year,Nancy J's was in charge of the 27 store shop hop she told me that they do not want to compete with the show. I donot think at this time they have plans for next year,but they had a real successfull show and the venders want to do it again. It was really done up nice...Nancy does a good job.
