Helloooooooo Campers!

 

Are you getting excited about your weekend at camp yet? We want to give you a little update on a few things to help make it easier for you at Camp Croppin’.


As mentioned in our last Camp Croppin’ newsflash, we will have enough spots for all 300 of our campers who registered. We will have long tables and round tables just like last year. The great part about the long tables is that there is a bit more room to scrapbook at, however there is not as much space to store your scrapbooking tools and accessories. The round tables make it easier to chat with your camp buddies while scrapbooking and they give you more space to bring more “stuff”, but they have slightly less room to scrapbook at. We will be sending you some tips in some of our later newsflashes as to how to get organized for Camp Croppin’, so that you do not need to bring everything. . . including the kitchen sink!! Make sure that you watch for those emails!


There is also a great feature on our website that we want to make you aware of. Go to www.scrapbookersparadise.com and click on Camp Croppin’. Then, scroll to the bottom of the page and you will find a link called “newsflashes”. When you click on that link you will be directed to our webpage that will have links to all of the newsflashes that we have sent out about Camp Croppin’. If you ever accidentally delete a newsflash, or if you have problems with your email and you do not get our newsflashes, simply check on that section of our website and you will be all caught up on the latest and greatest information about Camp Croppin’.


Finally, there is no point in going camping if there is no place to park your camper. We are very excited to be holding our Camp Croppin’ at Calgary’s beautiful, centrally located conference hotel:
