January 14 Chicago Meetup - Union Station Great Hall
#1
At the Millennium Park/Russian Tea Time meetup, we talked about maybe going to Adler Planetarium for their high tea service. I checked with the Adler cafe and they require a minimum of 12 people with 2-week advance notification. We had 6 at Russian Tea Time - I'm not sure if we could make it to 12 people. If we can, it would make a fun outing.

I've now forgotten the other places we talked about meeting up... Sweatdrop Anyone have ideas, or preferences for dates? Right now I'm thinking mid-January. (7/8, 14/15, 21/22)

The date has been decided for January 14! We will meet at Union Station's Great Hall at 11am or so.

I'd be up for any of those Saturdays (I work Sunday), but not the weekend of the 21st/22nd, as that's my anniversary~ ♥

Twelve would be a stretch for our little Chicago group.

i agree with True - we usually dont have very many people show up - we could always go back to the MSI and see Christmas Around the World and Holidays of Light - i mean yes we were there a few months ago but its something new to see - although that only lasts till the 8th...

Here's a thought. Needsmorelace said she has some lolita friends who have or might get Pullips. I wonder if Needsmorelace and milkytea could round up some lolita friends for a joint meet?

I think if we made it a general doll meet there would be more interest among some of the lolita. There was a small lolita/doll meetup in the summer that had a small but decent turnout, and afterwards there were some other girls interested in the concept. Or, if we just wanted to have a joint meet so as to enjoy a tea reservation, no one would need to feel pressured to wear lolita or any specific outfit. Generally the lolita in Chicago are pretty laid-back and forgo "dress codes."

If there's anything else specific you want to share about how you envision the event, I could easily put up a feeler post in the lolita community to see who might be interested.

It can definitely be a general doll meet! I actually always post about our meets on the Blythe forums too. All dolls are welcome.

a joint meet actually sounds like alot of fun - and it was talked about at RTT that we all dress in lolita anyway - so it sounds like its going to be a doll/lolita meet yay

Hey, great, we'd love to meet you!!

Anyway, it looks like we narrowed it down to one weekend? 14/15 (or maybe the 8th if we want to go see the last day of trees at MSI)

Milkytea can't make the 8th since it's a Sunday, so how about January 14?
