Convention starts off with a Bang!

Thursday evening, Opening Session of convention started.  This is a picture of the front stage which a sign that read, Be The Difference, which was the theme of the convention.  A male singer ( I forget his name.  I'm sorry.), came out singing the theme song.  He had a marvelous voice.  And then some pyrotechnics were set off.  It was fantastic!!!!  So we started off with a bang. It was a wonderful evening.

Shellie spoke with us about Stampin' Up's partnership with the Ronald McDonald Houses.  Stampin' Up donates $3  to the Ronald McDonald Houses from every Ronald McDonald stamp set it sells.  This year's RMCH stamp set is titled "Tag It".  Shelly then introduced Ronald McDonald to us and he spoke to us, what this charity is all about.  HE stayed for a while while demonstrators drop off hand made cards to be given to Ronald McDonald Houses where families there will be able to use them.  Stampin' Up demonstrators also volunteer at Ronald McDonald Houses all over the US.  It is one way the SU demos can "Be The Difference."

A lot more went on, but I will post that on my next blog post.  There is alot of "new" going on at SU and I will tell you more about that then.  Enjoy the day!
