Bonanza Blog Party


We are having a party!!! This will be my first blog party ever! I wasn't quite sure what a blog party was, so I asked a few celebrity bloggers for input. I learned that the only criteria is, that it has to be fun! So I guess that means treats and prizes!

THE SCOOP:
Happy Trails Meet & Greet Blog Party
Junk Bonanza
Paddock Gardens Canterbury Park Shakopee, MN
Thursday Sept. 17
1:00 to 2:00PM

I have received RSVP's from a few of your favorite bloggers including Heather Bullard, Margo Robolady, Matthew Mead, Linda Restyled Home, The Farm Chicks, and Kari Artsy Mama

Meet Nancy Soriano, Design + Lifestyle Expert and Former Editor-in-Chief of Country Living along with Jo Packham, Editor-in-Chief of Where Women Create

Bring your cameras and cards to pass out (if you have them) and get ready for some fun!

If you plan on attending, grab a blog button to post (the cute squirrel in my sidebar or below) and leave a comment below with your blogsite. (You don't need a blogsite to RSVP.) I will add you to the blogroll on my sidebar .






Feel free to post this button on your blog.

I can't wait to meet everybody!

    What's a blog party? This is new for me. Do I actually have to go to it? Or is it done via internet?

    Christine, From what I know, blog parties can be online or in person. This party is in person. If you can't make it, I know lots of folks will share their stories on their blogs after the party!
    Peace,
    Ki

    I wish I could be there, but it seems these things always happen on the West Coast, and I am in the Midwest. Hope you bring the party to the web, if that is the case I'll be there.

    Judy, you are in luck! The Bonanza is in the Midwest! Shakopee Minnesota, just south of Minneapolis!

    I can't wait! First big junk event as well as blog party. I'm just not looking forward to the early morning drive. But I'm sure it will be worth it. And I'm sporting the squirrel on my blog.

    I'm brand new to blogging, so I barely know what a blog is, let alone a blog party.....but, if it includes fun and treats, I'm there!
