Why: The srapbook expo in Pleasanton is going to be Fri 03/14/08 & Sat 03/15/08. This is always a great event - lots of fun, get to see to new products & new techniques. Lots of exhibitors with tons of products.

Meeting Description: Gail has volunteered to drive and there is one spot left in her car. Please contact her directly about riding with her. Maybe more people will be interested in being carpool drivers. Anyone interested in joining the crop nights may want to arrange an additional carpool since they are only during the evening and last till 11:30. I have not been to their crop nights yet, so I am not sure how they are. Generally by the time the exhibit floor closes, many people are tired and then we still have to get back to the city.

What Exhibitors Will Be There?
We are excited to offer you more than 50 different scrapbook related exhibitors that will be attending this year's Scrapbook EXPO.
--------------------------------------

Make & Takes
As if all the exhibitors were not enough... wait until you see the different Make & Takes on the Exhibit floor! It's the Make & Takes that have made our EXPOs famous, and keep you all coming back year after year. Sit down and try out all the latest and most popular products. Even better than actually creating a hands-on project is the fact that with many of the Make & Takes, you will have something finished and ready to put in your album when you get home
--------------------------------------

Volunteer Program
Would you like to volunteer this year at the Scrapbook EXPO? If you are interested, we would love to have you help us at our Scrapbook EXPO. After you have worked your 4 hour volunteer shift, we will pay you $36.00 cash to cover your costs for the workshops and admission tickets (it is your responsibility to pre-register for your workshops and admission tickets). The volunteer shifts will involve either helping at our Will Call area, assisting in workshops, helping out at a Crop Party, or assisting with Door Prizes.

Beginning February 1, 2008 you can sign up to be a Scrapbook EXPO Volunteer by clicking the Volunteers link on the Scrapbook EXPO webpage. All Volunteers must be able to work for 4 hours on their feet

Blank scrapbook pages, a pair of scissors, adhesive and photo safe pens.
