2014 Gathering

From Cheryl:

I am offering to be the pick up person for anyone wanting to place an order at Wholesale Supplies Plus for delivery to the Gathering.  I have been in touch with Debbie May and we have coordinated the following:
(Important note:  your deadline for ordering is:  WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23RD.)  This gives them time to process and pull our orders.

1.  Go to the WSP website (www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com) and create an order.
2.  At checkout you will need to select the "pickup" option and you must type "Ohio Soaper's Gathering" in the comment section. 
3.  You must pay for your order at that time.  I am not collecting money for this.
4.  Let me know via Facebook or e-mail (bythehearth at aol dot com) that you have an order.  I would also appreciate a contact number in the event there is a question at the time of pick up.  It rarely happens but I like to be prepared.

A couple things of note: 
1. when you place an order for pickup you receive 20% off the published prices online
2. if you don't want to use the website you may call it in but it must be paid for at the time of order. 
3.  I will pick up on Friday, 4-25.
3.  I am not driving my SUV this year.  I will have room but I obviously won't be able to accommodate huge orders.

I finally made connections with Debbie May at Wholesale Supplies Plus!  She has kindly offered to host a post-gathering dinner on April 26 in Sandusky.  If you are interested in attending this dinner, it is imperative that you let me know no later than Wednesday, April 16.  I can't get into the Ohio Soapers website so I'm asking that Kim or someone else please send this on to the email list for anyone who doesn't get this blog or facebook.  Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this as it should be a fun event!
Here are the directions to the Gathering:  Take State Route 250 N to where 250 veers off to the right, and you'll see the "Four Corner" bar.  Go straight through the intersection with the traffic lights and turn at the first right after the lights.  You'll see the building right there.  :o)
Please be reminded that I MUST have your lunch orders by Saturday, April 12!

I just got an email from Deborah Ward from Nature's Garden regarding pre-gathering orders.  She wrote, "Orders must be paid in fulol when placing order.  Then, in the special instrucftions comments area they should write the following:  Please deliver to the Ohio Soapers Gathering.  We will credit them for the shipping they paid, and give them 5% off their entire order.  We will then deliver those orders to the gathering."  Their fragrance oils are wonderful, and I know nobody will be disappointed with their order.  So please visit their website and place your orders!  :o)
