Alaska Achievers Blog Hop - On Stage Celebrations

Welcome back to another Alaska Achievers Monthly Blog Hop, with fellow Demonstrators globally, who have also earned the prestigious Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip, that only a limited number around the world achieve.

This month Demonstrators around the Globe attended our bi-annual On Stage Convention in our local countries, enjoying the big reveal of our brand ***NEW*** Annual catalogue 2018/19 being released on 1st June.

Joining in the Stampin’ Up! 30th year celebrations around the Globe with our teams and fellow Demonstrators, creates a fantastic atmosphere.

Our hotel party this time consisted of 11 of my Downline team, with four of them attending On Stage for their first time, plus two honorary ‘adopted’ team members and another 6 in another hotel group.

With wonderful display stampers showcasing projects with NEW up-coming products and Demonstrators presenting on Stage to the whole group, inspiration was certainly flowing in all directions. I have already identified some firm favourites to plan my classes and Weekend Retreats for my customers.

The fun all started on Friday evening at Centre Stage event being attended by Demonstrators who have achieved Silver Elite or above. Our ‘attire’ on the invite said 80’s party. Well I’m not into fancy dress but fate dealt me the opportunity to purchase this, at just the correct moment.

My costume certainly got lots of attention

I am so lucky to have attended every Convention and On Stage in Europe, still enjoying fond memories of that first European event in Frankfurt in 2009, with just 160 attendees.

I do hope you have enjyed seeing some of the fun we enjoy at these events. If you would to know how you can join us at the next event, speak to your Demonstrator or feel free to contact me.
