Okay, I don't mean to be Negative Nellie, but I'd rather not do the secret santa thing. I'm just looking forward to getting together in a casual atmosphere and chatting, eating and learning new techniques! If everyone else wants to do it, I can participate, but just wanted to throw my opinion in there. To me, it's just more money to spend when it's not really necessary, and I'm sure most of us have so much cake stuff already, I feel like alot of us will probably end up getting a duplicate of something we've already got. Sorry to be a downer, and like I said, I'll go with the group on this one, but that's my .02! I'm just not a "games" kind of girl, I guess.
Oh, I have a request for a demo from someone. I would love to learn how to make some fondant/gumpaste flowers! Anyone who is an expert at this willing to volunteer?

So, LJ, would you want us to put you on first, due to the volatility of the butter cream? If everyone wants to bring their own supplies, then they could practice with you looking over our shoulders after you have shown us what to do.
Does that seem reasonable?

That sounds very reasonable to me... I will happy to go first. Absolutely, this can be a hands on demonstration.. As we get closer, I will send a list of supplies folks can bring who want to participate..
This is the first time I've seen this thread-I've been on vacation. Thanks for the bump! I am north of Nashville and you can count me in...Louisville is only a skip and a jump. I will be ready for a break the first weekend in September!

I am so excited about this class structure. I am game for any and all of it.
I think we will need a list of what each person is going to do and if it is a hands on demo If the teachers will send me a list I will compile a program of each demo and the items needed for us to bring if we want to learn that demo. I am a newbie, so I want to learn from all of you.
I have not done a BC rose since Wilton I class and mine all looked like cabbages. I can't wait to learn a new trick or two.
mine are past the cabbage stage LOL.. mine looks like big piles of dog poo

UPDATED LIST FOR LOUISVILLE MEETING ON SEPT. 06, 2008 AS OF
JUNE 10, 2008 @ 10:40 a.m.
Thanks so much wgoat5 (Christi) for keeping this "bumped" (although I still do not know exactly what that means... but it worked! ) I have never taken the time to find out all the acronyms, etc. on this site... there is so much info about our profession which causes me to become so absorbed that I never check out the little things that make this site work!
Please, please, please make sure your name is on the following list if you are definitely coming. I cannot make any definite venue reservations unless I have an approximate number.
Also, in case CC is down again like it has been for these past frustrating days, we should have an alternative information site just for this meeting. I have an email address that I made if anyone wishes to stay in contact if something happens to the CC website again so we can stay in contact for this meeting:
Well, I am really trying to keep this current... Here is the updated list so far... please tell me if I missed your name.... Please tell me if I am in error with any of the names:
Oh, Boy! We have 29 confirmed with a possibility of 2 more!

Whew, thanks tippyad! I was beginning to think I had made everyone mad or everyone had me on "ignore" or something!
Would still love to see someone do a demo on gumpaste/fondant flowers and also figure-making!

Lutie, just wanted to let you know you have me down twice. Hallow3 aka Sherry Hester. I just did not want to mess up the count for you.
I would love for someone to show me how to do the fondant figures.
