**August Vacation Event !!!**

**Jeanette M.** · August 10th, 2006, 06:35 AM

Okay, everybody, have you been saving up your dolly vacation photos to post in our August Summer Vacation Event? Several people asked that we wait till the end of the month, so August 27th to September 2 will be the week for posting those pics and albums! I'll be posting weekly reminders till then - and I guess I'd better be getting my own album ready! [img]smile.gif[/img]

For our new members, monthly events/parades were initiated several months ago. Here is a quote from the thread that started the ball rolling:

We are initiating a series of dollie events/parade based on the various themes listed. Each month the event will be lead by the person who is named. The event leader will:

1. Post the topic and the date a couple weeks in advance.
2. Post a few reminders.
3. On the day of the parade, start the thread.
4. People will post their photos and albums on the thread.
5. Voila! It's done!
HB members can use their fantastic imaginations and let their dollies "hit the runway" with gorgeous pictures and or albums!

-AUGUST/Dollie Vacations: Jeanette M.

Thanks for the enthusiasm, Everbody, and for the kind comments, Sheila. Since we began these monthly events with SugarMagnolia's Oscar Party last March and Prsnlrd's Easter Parade in April, I have edited my original post to add the January and February 2007 events. These are really fun to do, and to view; so put your thinking caps on and see what you can come up with. And if you can't post your album during the Event/Parade Week, please add it whenever you can - you know dolly albums are always appreciated here!
