Hi Everyone, I made a post about the event on my blog. I didn't have the exact numbers so if there are corrections that are needed, please send me an email. It was fun and I appreciate all that I learned from everyone. Here is a link to the post:

As far as backdrops they were going to use the stage curtains so we should be fine. I have been out of town all week and just got back so I will not make the set up. Please let me know if you still need a coffee pot.

Peter-- I've got my 85mm and my 70-200 - So I'm thinking I should be able to make due with those. I have the 28mm as well but I only bring that one out if I really need a wide shot, I'm not a fan of that lens. I think I should be okay, hopefully anyway :)

Erinne - AshNicole331@aim.com - We'll be there at 5! Anything we should bring? I'm checking FB now!

Hey Ashley! Everyone is meeting at the school (Moraine Meadows Elementary 2600 Holman st. Moraine, OHIO 45439) at 5 to set up for tomorrow. What is your email? I can forward you the threads from all the emails so you are in the loop. Also, the FB page has some recent info, too. Bummer about your lens :( http://www.facebook.com/#/group.php?gid=203807469223&ref=ts

I don't think Jordan and I are on the e-mail list - I get a couple random ones every once in a while. Just want to make sure we're not missing out on anything! There's a meeting tonight at 5, right? Oh, and I broke my 50mm! Great timing, right? :)
Mindy Braun Comment by Mindy Braun on December 16, 2009 at 10:45pm
Brian & Peggy, you guys still good on backdrops?
Ashley Begley Comment by Ashley Begley on December 2, 2009 at 10:04pm
Hey all -- Sorry we missed the meeting yesterday! Jordan and I have both been sick the last few days and figured we'd spare you all the germs :)

So great to hear we have a location! I am still working on hair, though it sounds like we *might* have some possibilities at SquareOne based on the little that I just tried to catch up on here...hopefully something comes of that! I'm having a hard time finding girls who are willing to give up their Saturday's...I'll keep trying though.

If there is anything else Jordan and I can do, please let us know!

thanks allison!
Allison Walton Comment by Allison Walton on December 2, 2009 at 3:37pm
Mindy - the publicity spot you're unsure of is Emmanuel Baptist. They are a church on E. Third Street, and they have a very active youth group comprised solely of kids from that area. LOTS of needy families there. My cousins are in charge of the youth programs there. I'm in contact with them about possibly bringing a bus (or several cars) of families down that day for the shoot.
