Update on hotel reservations

Please everyone, if you are attending and have not booked a room yet, we have rooms blocked until April 7th. at the Days Inn.  You need to mention you are there for the Ohio Soap Gathering so you can receive your discount.  If you already booked and didn't mention it, you can call them back and tell them, they will give you the discount.

Good news everyone!  Deborah Ward from Nature's Garden has agreed to let us pick up her sample bottles of fragrance oils for us to sniff!  She will have order sheets for us with places to mark our favorite oils so we know which ones to order.  She had to decline attending because of her boys being heavily into baseball so she is running everyday.

Also we have Brooke Gatten, licensed massotherapist attending the gathering giving massages for $1 per minute.  She will be at the gathering from 9-1 so bring your dollar bills!  Should feel really good!
