Our first post!

I just decided that maybe it was time for another yearly gathering of adoptive families. Every one I have found so far is at least 10 hours away or longer. We really wanted to attend Guatoberfest this year and go on the cruise but it was just too expensive. I started this group with mainly families from Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Illinois in mind but if anyone else wants to come you are welcome. I am trying to get an estimated number together so I can block out some rooms and get a reduced room rate. We are doing our 1st meeting at http://caribbeancovewaterpark.com/ in Indianapolis, Indiana. I was trying to find a place that was somewhat central and not too far of a drive from all the great friends I have made from the wonderful world of adoption. Right now the only event planned is to go to the Childrens Museum on Saturday the 18th. If you have any other ideas you would like to see happen let me know. I would like to have dinner on Friday night but it depends on how many people attend to figure out where. Please e-mail or comment and let me know if you would be interested in attending.

Please keep in mind this is my first year doing anything like this so any pointers are helpful.

There's a possibility that I might go as well even though I'm in Texas. Sounds like fun@

Oh I am IN!! Of course I live in Indiana and Indy is only a couple of hours away! Indy has some great shopping and resturants too. I have never been to their zoo but the museum is really amazing.

Thanks for doing this!!

We're just a few minutes from Indy and we'd love to come! The Children's Museum is great. The zoo is also nice for the kids too. Count us in if you get everything worked out!
