They did make "ANA Discussion Forum Member" ribbons again for our nametags that we can put on if we want.  MeiMei

Note to Phyl -

make sure they make enough of the Forum Member ribbons this time; last time there was a shortage  :(

Please join all of your Forumites in the Hospitality Room at the symposium on Friday, June 17, at 4:15 pm – so you can meet and greet each other.  Beverages and treats will be provided.

The Hospitality Room is in Salon HI on the 4th floor of the hotel.

Looking forward to seeing you in Cincinnati next week.

Judy

Thank you Cheryl.   I am leaving on Friday at noon from Baltimore and look for the ground transportation.    I guess I'll be checking in around 2:30 or 3.

I'm still taking Percocet at night from the surgery .   The stitches don't come out till June 21st.   I guess I wasn
t clear in my message.    Yes, I want to toast everyone    Present and not Present for being such great Forumites.

Hugs,
Mei Mei

Wish something like this was done last time in Chicago; great idea.

Hope it becomes a tradition so those of us who plan to attend in 2013 and future years can enjoy it  ;D

Hello Cincinnati-bound folks,

My sister says that the Palomino is nearby and probably our best bet for a quiet place that has personality. She said to ask for the back of the restaurant, past the bar. It is a fairly high priced place, as I remember, unless it's happy hour. I would think the hotel could also give ideas for quiet places also...there may be someplace quiet there, especially on a Thursday.

My flight arrives at 7:30, so I won't make it down to the Hilton probably till around 8:30. I wonder if anyone else is arriving around 7:30....? If so, send me a message.

Can't wait to meet you all! See you soon.
