  • First Row Left: Advisor Cassie Oelberg hosted the 11th Annual PA Convention — a powerful weekend filled with training, connection and community. With inspiring speakers, engaging classes, hybrid sessions and a stellar support crew, this event proved once again that teamwork makes the dream work!
  • First Row Right: Advisor Connie Skaggs led a successful hybrid crop with six in-person guests and additional attendees from Arizona, Utah and South Carolina. A great way to stay cool and creative on a hot July day!
  • Second Row Left: Advisors Birdie Olson and Deb Keith co-hosted a creative class using the Noteworthy Simple Page Kit #1 and Celebration Kit. The group loved customizing their layouts with stars, fireworks and birthday themes.
  • Second Row Right: Advisor Cindy Crist and her team, Cindy’s Croppin’ Crew, hosted a high-energy four-day Summer Fiesta Retreat in Wooster, Ohio, with 50 attendees. Highlights included over 1,000 pages completed, demos, make-and-takes, two Beginner Classes and more than $4,000 in sales — plus two new team members!
  • Third Row Left: Advisor Pamela Chattin welcomed 13 guests (including two new to her) to her five-day “Getting Outside” Summer Camp. Guests enjoyed scrapbooking, a pitch-in picnic and great sales, with two new recruits signed. She’s doing it all again with another group right after!

  • Fourth Row Left: Advisor Sue Millwater kept the creativity flowing with a wonderful 12-hour Saturday crop.
  • Fourth Row Right: Advisor Emily Gallo brought the tropical vibes with her summer luau retreat in Exton, Pennsylvania. With 50 croppers, strong sales and several new customers attending Beginner Classes, it was a weekend full of fun and momentum.

  • Second Row Left: Advisor Joanne Bambino Hall and her Life Preservers Team hosted 52 people for their Amazing August event. Two full days of talent, teamwork and creativity made it one to remember.
  • Second Row Right: Advisor Teri Edwards led a Beginner Class at her local Las Vegas library with five attendees. New scrapbookers, including a sweet couple, enjoyed creating with the Simple Page Kits — and several plan to join her future crops.
  • Third Row Left: Advisor Lacy Swain hosted a two-day crop for her customers. She snapped a group photo with her Saturday crew — double the fun was had on Friday!
  • Third Row Right: Advisor Janet Ramos hosted another successful Saturday crop with her scrappy community.
  • Fourth Row Left: Advisor Dee Jarvis held a relaxed and friendly crop alongside fellow Advisors Lori Knapp and Sondra Faul.
