you may well be asking?
LOTS.
HEAPS.
EVERYTHING.
is my reply.
One of our lucky ladies is busy as a bee packing her bags to go OS. Another of our ladies is SSD (scrap sucked dry) and the other one is the ever positive, gentle encourager.
At the same time, we are all madly planning the most awesome-est time for everyone in October. Details will be out very, very soon... keep your eyes peeled, your nose clean and your ear close to the ground. You will see it HERE first.
If you know of anyone interested in coming along, please spread the word for us. We would hate to think someone missed out on such a great time at our retreats simply because they didn't know about it.
Again I will stress that the 'mini' retreat / scrapathon is a no fuss retreat. There are NO bells and whistles like the main retreat. This is not to say that we wont have a great time.... as last year proved it was so relaxing for everyone to kick back and do your own thing with no classes, no pressure, no goodie bags, no frills, no husband, no meals to worry about and no kids. Brilliant!
In other news : another nifty way we can stay in touch with you (and you to e2c events) is facebook. YES - e2c is now on facebook. It is really exciting to see many, many new faces joining from around the country every day! (i dont' think there have been any international girls yet??!) Needless to say we also love seeing our familiar, local girls too 'cause we love you all so much!!
click here if you would like to join our 'group'.
Never fear - this will NOT take the place of the blog. I see it as another vehicle to get our info about the retreat around. This blog is the main train on the railway of e2c info and the facebook page is one of those kalamazoo hand carts... if you follow my analogy.
Anyway there is lots happening behind the scenes so please don't think that just because the blog is quiet that we are all resting on our bottoms. Far from it!!
Also don't forget to say hello if you stop by. We get encouraged to continue the blog and retreats by you... yes YOU!

bakery you girls talk about all the time :) :)
Can't wait to hear we're going!!
You Girls ROCK!!! xx Lauren
oh I am glad to hear the blog is still the main face of E2C, I don't do Facebook LOL (much to my mums disgust).
Hope the lucky lady enjoys her overseas trip ;)!!
I LOVED the last mini retreat!! So relaxing!
I had a question put to me the other day.... is there going to be a mad rush to get in with this retreat like the "Maxi" retreat???
I think people are starting to hover around their computers! lol
Great idea with FB too...great way to have a chat and catch up with the goss ;-)
bring on october, i can't wait!! i have been really busy this month (including a trip to brissie for the expo!)...so i looking forward to having a go at some challenges again soon xxx
facebook is a great way to keep in touch, but still love the blog too, and glad to hear its staying.Thank you girls for all the time and effort you put in, with keeping us all up to date, and posting the challenges etc etc.
And have a great trip sue!Im sure you will have some amazing photos to scrap when you return.
Sandra - in reply to your question:
it's a tricky one to answer. Last year there wasn't a rush with bookings at all. It's hard to know this year as there seems a bit more excitement and interest (plus it is bigger and possibly BETTER than last year's mini retreat!) so i guess it would be best to secure your spot sooner rather than later!
I would suggest that it wont be as mad a rush as the big retreat but i would hate for anyone to miss out by waiting also!!
I'm ready!! xx
rippa rita. FB is such a great way to keep up with the minute and nearly everyone is there these days. Forums have been dieing a slow death since FB became mainstream. The blog is fantastic to showcase the challenges and to inspire so that definitely has a leader role too.
well done girls on keeping the energy of the blog alive. feedback is always wonderful
Can't wait to hear about the mini-retreat ~ last year was fantastic ! a most relaxing and enjoyable weekend!
Kylie
