PeterPan Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Could I humbly suggest we have a little email barrage of the convention organizers? Apparently others have emailed them, asking why TOG isn't on the slate at all. The Cincy people have gotten people and vendors added at the last minute when we asked, so I know they can. Last year they brought in MCT after a whole bunch of people emailed in. So if you want to ask them to bring in TOG THIS YEAR, not next, email them at greathomeschoolconventions@gmail.com :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterPan Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 Nope, no mistake. I emailed to ask them. Marcia Somerville was there one of the early years of the convention. TOG has no booth this year, but they will be at the CHEO convention in Akron, which is significantly smaller. It's just totally bizarre. When I emailed the conventions organizers, they said they had put them on a contact list for 2012. They've gotten other people in at the last minute when people barraged them with emails, so that is why I'm suggesting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you also contact TOG to see if they are available to attend or have someone to work in their booth? There may be more to it than what appears? Yes, TOG was there in 2008. I remember it was on the balcony next to Todd Wilson. I remember that, but can't remember where my iPod is. go figure. But then in 2009 TOG couldn't attend conventions due to business reasons with TOG. It was a rough year for them and going digital and all of that. I understand wanting to have a favorite exhibitor at a conference. -crystal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
