Just in case you didn't notice, Light Up Ohio 2014 is exactly one month away from today! Are we getting excited yet!?!?!

 

Have you registered yet? Have you booked your hotel room (if needed)? 

 

If you're still undecided about attending our event, you might want to make a decision soon as it's limited seating and it is filling up fast & you don't want to miss out on the great event we have planned!!!

Reminder:

If you are attending Light Up Ohio next month and you want to get in on the Swap Meet, by all means bring your items along with you. Our Swap Meet will be going on all day long, during the LUO Event on May 17th! 

We are planning on having the White Elephant Gift Exchange at the Meet 'N Greet. If you would like to participate, bring a"wrapped" gift with you. It can be something bought or an item for your collection. If you purchase something, you can spend as much as you like, but the general rule of thumb is up to $20

 

Just an FYI...

In the event we have a large group of people at the Meet 'N Greet, we "may" have to move the gift exchange to one of the hotel lobbys where people are staying.

Christmas-LEDs.com is offering a 10% discount to LUO Attendees!       

The website code for LUO is LUO2014 and that's all set up now. That will take the 10% off during the check out process. 

When customers get to the shipping options they should click on "Pick Up At Event". 

The last day to place an order will need to be May 11th to ensure that we can get whatever orders there are, packed up and on the way on Monday the 12th.

White Elephant Gift Exchange Update:
We will be having a White Elephant gift exchange after the presentations on Saturday. We were going to do it at the M&G, but there are so many people going to the M&G, it might get kind of chaotic in a restaurant. Plus, having it on Saturday will allow more people to participate, it's a lot of fun!!! If anyone attending wants to get in on it, bring a wrapped gift with you.
Can't wait to see you at Light Up Ohio 2014.

ONLY "1" MORE WEEK UNTIL LIGHT UP OHIO 2014!!!!!!!

We are almost packed to capacity, but we still have a few spots left.  Our famous "Collector T-Shirt" sold much faster than we thought, so we had to have a cut-off date.  But, the T-Shirt shop told us that they could make more after the event, so if anybody still wants one, sign up for it with your registration and I will send it to you after the event.

Registration is still open, so don't miss out.  It's going to be a fun time. Hope to see everyone in Westerville, Ohio on May 16th and 17th.

I'm starting to get my car packed up, can't wait until tomorrow.  Thanks go out to Terry Powers for coming up with the "White Elephant" gift game.  Ever since we did the exchange at one of his events, we've been hooked on it at Light Up Ohio.  This year is no different.  The "White Elephant" is on for Saturday, so go to our site www.lightupohio.com for the rules, and "Do Not" forget your gift, it is a fun game to play, you don't want to miss it. 

See you tomorrow, or Saturday, depending on if you are going to the Friday M&G.

Now that I am all rested from Light Up Ohio 2014, I would like to Thank a few people.

     Light Up Ohio 2014 was a big success, and it was a great time.  First off a big Thank You goes out to all of the attendees, without you guys we could have never pulled it off.  I was really humbled by so many new faces and distances people travelled to mingle with other decorators to share ideas. 

     Thanks to the very generous "anonymous" person that paid for our entire M&G, your generosity was deeply appreciated by all. 

      To me, the people that do presentations are the backbone of the event.  They volunteer their time to speak on a subject of interest, to help others turn their displays into the best they can be.  I deeply appreciate each and every one of you for taking time out of your busy schedules to bring some clarity to this, sometimes very confusing hobby, we call Holiday Lighting.  A Special "Thank You" goes out to Mickey and Minnie Baus for coming all the way from Florida to share with us your truly Spectacular Display. 

      Vendors are the backbone of our hobby, without you guys we would not be able to do the things we do.  A big Thank You goes out to all of the Vendors that supported Light Up Ohio 2014.

      Last but not least I would like to Thank all of the organizers.  It is not an easy task to bring this event together, and everybody worked tirelessly to make Light Up Ohio one of the premier "Minis" of the year.  A big "THANK YOU" goes to Joe Erdeljac, Jeff Phillips, Joe Davis, and Laura Davis.  You guys bought this whole thing together without a glitch (or at least not many, lol) and it was a huge success.

     Pictures will be on our site in a couple of days, be sure to check them out.  www.lightupohio.com
