I would love to hear someone speak about holistic nutrition.

OK everyone this is what I have in the works and would LOVE everyones Feedback....... Drumroll please:

The 1st Annual International YorkieTalk Awards Ceremony

I am thinking of having around 5-6 categories but I need your help!!

The 1st Category will be "Farthest Yter" Who traveled the most to get here
The 2nd Category will Be "Most Yorkies Attended" (Who brings the most yorkies)
The 3rd Category will be "Ms. Popular" "Most Posts" or Whatever you guys what to call this award (Who has the most posts out of everyone attending)
The 4th Category will be "Best Dressed Boy" "Best Dressed Girl"

Are there anymore categories that you guys would want to add?? Does everyone like this idea? We can play around with the name of the awards too but I just wanted to throw everything out there and see if we can get the ball rolling on the YORKIETALK AWARDS CEREMONY!!

Those are great...how about "Best Dressed Couple" for those that have boys and girls? Maybe we can also recognize longest member and newest member out of those that attend.

I had a few specific locations in mind though from my knowledge of the area, and we scoped them out while I was home for Christmas. Without a doubt, I think the best area for the Friday meet-up is Loose Park! Loose Park (http://www.kcmo.org/parks.nsf/web/loose) is a popular park in the Plaza area (1.64 miles from the hotel), and it is beautiful and dog-friendly. They even have poop bags provided for the doggie visitors! The hotel WILL provide the FREE shuttle for all of us and our babies to the park. The Friday meet-up is why I've requested as many x-pens as possible, so that we can hook them all together and let the babies run, while we all chit-chat and get to know each other

!!!

I can vouch for Loose Park. It is beautiful and is in a beautiful area. When we lived in KC, we went there quite often. It will be fun to go back there.

LOL You'll probably win that award for most dogs attending

I think we need more "surprise" awards. It will be easy to look up who has the most posts, longest member, newest member, etc.

what about door prises?

I love all the ideas!!

I know, although he keeps telling me that I should only take a few with me so that I will be able to enjoy myself more while we are there.
