Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Does everyone want the results of the voting? I am confused now. I was thinking of the 4 plus Courage (5 total) in mind for the drive that are coming from Michigan. That is where the Ann Arbor, MI idea came from. I am also keeping in mind those coming from Southern States and as mentioned those serious about coming to the gathering. So, I think that is where St. Louis, MO came from. Not sure about Massachusetts? I answered knowing a caregiver is from there then wondered if we are still throwing around ideas for a central location suitable for everyone. This will be numbers taken from the majority vote for August 1-3, states represented: Michigan - 4 Canada - 1 Iowa - 3 Florida - 1 (or maybe now 2?) Lousianna - 1 Massachusetts - 1 Texas - 1 Scotland - 1 England - 1 There is 1 more on the list that I couldn't find a location for. Also the last 2 (Scotland and England) didn't vote, don't show up on the poll yet are on my list. One is Sally who those in the group for years will remember her There are more names, from the other 2 dates that had been voted on. I can give those names if anyone is interested. Also, there is another poll, also closed, where people voted as to whether they are planning on attending the 2008 Caregivers Gathering. Some of the same names, a few different ones as well. Hopefully this helps some. Let me know if anyone needs more information and/or names/dates, anything.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I didn't vote, but possibly will be there if all is well with Jim at that time. I'm coming from San Francisco Bay Area, CA I will fly to where the meeting place ends up being. Gladys Stefany wrote: I didn't vote but, I am seriously hoping to come.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Sandie, I don't think I would be able to go that far, maybe there are some here who may be interested in having " a gathering somewhere in the South eastern states.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Janet I live in Sac. Maybe if we are both flying out, we can meet at the airport and fly in together? That might be fun. lisa Engles SEIU-UHW Shop Steward ________________________________________________________________________________\ ____ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
