Upcoming Meets! (MN & IL)

Posted on by Nikki

There are a couple meets coming up in both the Chicago (IL) and Twin Cities (MN) areas.

As I transition over from my life in Chicago and helping to run ChitownDollz forum, I will probably still have some of the Chicago area meets posted up here in addition to the MN meets. However, I most likely will not be able to attend too many other than the huge summer & winter mega meets in the Chicago area.

When things get a bit more settled, I will be posting and (hopefully) attending the MN meets in southeastern Minnesota.

Time: Noon – 5pm

Mitsuwa Meetup Feb 21 – ChitownDollz

Posted on by Nikki

ChitownDollz had a meetup on February 21. I wasn’t able to make it until later in the evening, so I think I missed a bunch of people who were there earlier.

I was so happy I went! There were a few people there who are returning to the hobby after several years of little to no activity. 😀

There were only a few dolls left when I got there, so there aren’t too many pictures this time…

Not Attending ChitownDollz Mega Meet

Posted on by Nikki

I’ve recently found out I will not be able to attend the ChitownDollz Winter Mega Meet – so sad!

But I’ll actually be heading to Minnesota that week to spend time with my mom.

When I’m in Minnesota, I’m really hoping I can get a surprise for my sister completed. There are a few things that need to be ordered, but they should arrive on time.

Hopefully everyone has a fantastic time! I will miss seeing everyone, but family comes first. And let’s be honest – I’m super excited to be able to get home to spend time with family. 😀

If you can attend, don’t forget to register! Registration will be closing soon!

Join Us in January!
