Jan. 26, 2007 - Ideas...

Tancy Speaking....

I have been on the phone trying to figure out an activity for us to do...


Here is where I am at thusfar....

WREX- They give tours M-F at the noon and 6:00 broadcasts.  Maximum of around 20-25. They didn't have Feb. 2 open, but they did tentatively book us for the 9th (Which I KNOW isn't on the calendar) I can call back and cancel if there is no interest.  They would encourage us to leave those under 5 at home. I would be willing to open up my home for the little ones and stay with them if someone would take responsibility for the older two.   They would actually be in studio and touring the stations. Sounds neat. If things aren't crazy, there is a chance we would be on the news at the end of the broadcast.  Cool opportunity, but we would HAVE TO HAVE A NAME!!!!

 

Rockford Register Star - They give school tours and I am waitin for a returned call from Bea the promotions coordinator. 

 

Burpee - Wondering IF anyone is interested in this. Let me know and I will pursue it.

 

Beth - How is it going with the recycle Center.

 

Tammy - Did you say you were calling someone????

 

Did anyone make a formal date for us at GM after the cut off date? I found some info online, but know nothing else - 

I have no formal plans set for next Friday yet.  If you want the Tv station tour, I would think we wouldn't meet on the 2nd. 

Any body have anything to add or ask?????

I have not checked on anything yet, but I called GM and left a message about our desire to take a tour. They are closed until Feb 2nd, so I really don't think we will know anything until february, but I will keep on that. I am okay with whatever we do. The newspaper sounds cool. The TV station would be awesome, I am just sad to have to leave the little ones out of it. But if we must, we must. Thank you for offering your home. The Burpee museum sound really great, and they even have tours for both younger and older kids. I will give an update on what I find out for the paper plant on Monday. Until then :-)
Beth

Tammy here -

I think the TV station & RRSTAR both sound great!

Tancy, did you happen to call about airport tours??? If not, I can do that. : )

Thanks for your your hard work!

This is Julie..... and I just had an idea for you. Jeremy's aunt is Cindy Swanson from Radio 91, and I bet that she could get you in to have a tour of the radio station, and MAYBE even be on the radio. Just a thought, but I know that I went on a radio station tour when I was in school, and I LOVED it. Let me know if you want me to talk to her, or I am sure that Tancy could also, but I will be glad to help your "little group" out.

Jan. 29, 2007 - I'll go with the majority on this

I think they all sound good. Tancy, 2 of mine would be too little to go to the TV station, so I could help you out. Anything besides sledding sounds good to me. Actually, if we go to the TV station on Friday, Brian would probably be able to go with Ethan and I could help you out. Whatever you ladies want to do, let me know. Just an idea, but if we are doing any outings in the summer, we would like to go to a strawberry farm to pick strawberries. Yummy! Stef

For some reason I can't get in and post as lotsofmoms. I was going to start a new post about this week, but I couldn't. Here it goes.

There will be no meeting on February 2nd because we will be meeting on February 9th to go to the TV stations.

We are scheduled to be there for the noon broad cast. We are asked to be there ten minutes ahead of time. I will be watching the little kids at my home and I believe Stephanie will be staying to help me. Everyone should be ready to leave my home by 11:30. I think that we should make some sort of lunch plans because everyone will be starving by the time they are done at the staion. Thoughts?

Feb. 4, 2007 - field trip and Frito Lay

Posted by lotsofmoms
I would also be willing to watch little people if Tansy needs help. My family went on the television station tour when my kids were younger. Frito Lay doesn't allow tours anymore because of 9/11. Theresa H.
