Hi Gang,

I am very pleased that you will be joining me in Las Vegas for the 18th and final International Fashion
Doll Convention! We are very pleased to welcome you! I have planned many of the exciting activities
normally and not normally found at conventions. You will find the Salesroom as well as Workshops,
Seminars and surprises. The Souvenirs and Favors are planned to enrich your memories of the event.

Additionally, there will be a few unique events, like the “Trader Jim’s” Salesroom where everything is
$15 and under. Plus there will be the exciting Freebie Table, the Lady Luck Slot Tournament and the
“Oceans 11 Heist” Treasure Hunt. A double plus is our “Farewell Tour” Souvenir Shop which opens right
after the final night’s banquet so you can purchase extra dolls that you signed up for or wait to see if
there are extras after that to purchase. The sign up will be available as soon as you have registered for
the convention.

If you would like to contribute to the surprise element, you can prepare 260 goodie bag items
(no plain business cards) and send them to Bruce Nygren; his address and IMPORTANT specific
instructions about shipping can be found later in this registration packet.

Please make your hotel reservations as soon as possible at the Orleans Resort and Casino, 1-800-
675-3267. Mention that you are an attendee of the International Fashion Doll Convention (Code
AFD0C06) and you will be charged for the first night’s fee. You can easily get a cab or shuttle right
outside the airport terminal by the luggage pick up. I would estimate the cab fee would be about $23
with tip and the shuttle is about $17 round trip. If taking a cab, tell the driver to go down Tropicana
since that is a shorter way and cheaper.

Please read the material in this packet very carefully (no extra charges for my spelling mistakes). Pay
attention to deadlines as some are firm. It is a wise idea to keep copies of all the forms that you send
back to me.

You must attend each event to receive your souvenirs and goodies. Plus your Name Tag MUST be
worn at all times. Registrations are non-transferable without permission.

                                             IMPORTANT

A $50.00 cancellation fee will be charged for all registrants requesting cancellation prior to May 1,
2020. After May 1, 2020 NO part of the registration will be refunded and there will be NO mailings of
items and souvenirs from the convention. In other words, you’ll get nothing!

Look forward to seeing you in Las Vegas......and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

  Lady Luck Slot Tournament - $20
Everyone has a blast at the Slot Tournament right there in the middle of the casino. This private slot tourna-
ment is just for us and is wild and fun. It is only open to 100 attendees and the machines are set up to work for
free. You must get a free BConnected PLAYERS CARD (available at the casino) to enter the tournament. After
the slot tournament as they are totaling up the scores, everyone enjoys champagne and cake and then the top
15 winners are announced and they will win a variety of prizes from dolls to paintings to dinners and more.

Believe me, this event is a fun time for all who enter it. You’ll never hear such wild screaming and laughter at
any other convention and even see yourself on the big screen! Even those watching the tournament from the
casino wish that they could get into the fun......but it’s a private event just for us.

                                              Limited to 100 Players

Workshops
Enid Collins Mid-Century Handbag ($25)                                                 Thursday, 9:00—10:30 a.m.
Durelle Brown                                                                                 Durelle_deco@yahoo.com

Going back in time to the 60’s once again to celebrate the fun fashions of the period. We will be
doing Enid Collins handbags. These popular rhinestone studded colorful Barrel bags were all the
rage for every mid-century fashionista. I did this workshop in 2010 and have numerous requests to
do it again. This year’s theme seemed to be the perfect opportunity to resurrect these kitschy fun
handbags. We will be making 2 bags, one the classic wooden box bag and the other a canvas barrel
bag. (Some TOOLS are required for this workshop. See note below.)

I want to honor my Mother by doing this workshop. She was a collector of handbags and had over
30 original Enid Collins bags in her stash. I will have a very limited number of extra kits available for sale
in class.

Retro Tiki Lamp ($25)                                                                      Friday, 9:00—10:30 a.m.
Durelle Brown                                                                                 Durelle_deco@yahoo.com

Another awesome retro accessory for our doll house is a fun table lamp. Lamps are often over-
looked in our room plans, but they can finish off the “Look”of a themed room. A couple of years
ago we did Tiki Bars and it was suggested at the time by several attendees to do a lamp in the
same theme. Now this is your chance to learn how to do a lamp with a retro look. Our class proj-
ect lamp will have a tropical Tiki feeling. I will have a limited number of extra kits due to the weight and
travel. (Some TOOLS are required for this workshop. See note below.)

       REQUIRED TOOLS:
       Scissors capable of cutting heavy paper or fabric
       Straight Edge Ruler or Creasing Tool
       Pencil
       OPTIONAL TOOLS:
       Durelle will furnish glue to share, but you may find it easier to bring your own bottle. She
       recommends Aleene’s Tacky Glue. You many also choose to bring your own glue stick.
       For the handbags workshop, an assortment of colored fine-tip pens will be available
       to share, but again you may want to bring your own.

addition to the IFDC, like room sales but without all the running up and down the elevators. As you pay your
$15, you will receive 3 tickets to win prizes -- YES, another GAME NIGHT AT THE IFDC!!!! (Those selling will
receive 3 tickets with their $15 sales table.) Every 15 minutes names will be drawn for prizes.

I think you will all love the bargains and possibly going home with prizes that you have won. If you have to
leave early for an event don’t panic because if your name is drawn and you’re not there, your prize will be
saved for you.

If you want to be a seller at this event, send in the “Trader Jim’ $15 Salesroom Table” form with your $15 (per
table) paid in advance to reserve your spot. You may reserve more than one table.

  Table Host/Hostess Contest
If you would like to be a table host, please fill out the form with the names of those attending that you would
like to have at your table. No table host forms will be accepted unless there are at least eight people on the
form and all those listed must be already registered for the convention. If I receive a form and those listed are
not registered already, you will be notified that your request has been denied and you’ll have to try again. This
will get your table mates to hurry and register and not wait till the last minute. Plus don’t put down names for
your table without asking them first. Don’t put down names assuming they just love you and want to sit with
you......you could be surprised. At the Friday Night Dinner the Best Decorated table will win prizes!

The number of table hosts will depend on the number of attendees, so right now I don’t actually know how
many hosts will be needed and it may grow as registration picks up.

              Name:_______________________________ Email: ___________________________________

      I will volunteer to help with the following at the convention:
		             _____ U-Haul Truck Driver
		       _____ Movers: Getting up early the Monday before the convention to get items from
			             Bruce’s house. (You do have to be there the Monday before the convention and we
			             do meet at 6:00 am in the lobby, but this one comes with a free meal after we’re
			             done and there’s no price limit on your meal.)
  During the convention:
		             _____ Registration			                _____ Souvenir Shop          _______ Competition
		             _____ Setting up the Raffle Room     _____ Any area where needed

No one is worked to death, so don’t worry about volunteering for something.

                                     Deadline is June 1, 2020

 Shipping Items to Bruce Nygren
Certain convention items can be shipped ahead to Bruce Nygren, to be held until IFDC. Bruce and Peter really
help the IFDC by letting us mail the convention things to them, which they store in their home. That is why I ask
you not to send them things that have to be signed for or that they have to go pick up. Also, don’t send person-
al things to Bruce because we have to load trucks and unload trucks and unpack things, so we only want things
directly for the convention going to Bruce’s home.

You must clearly label each package with its contents, such as “Raffle Donations”, “Freebie Table Donations”,
“Goody Bag Donations”, etc.
                                              Bruce Nygren
                                            7882 McDowell Dr.
                                        Las Vegas, NV. 89129-5522

Remember, NO PERSONAL ITEMS, AND DO NOT SEND ANY BOXES WHERE BRUCE NEEDS TO SIGN FOR
THEM OR PICK THEM UP AT THE POST OFFICE! OTHERWISE THE BOX WILL BE REFUSED AND RETURNED
TO YOU!
Contributing to the Convention
     Please let me know by April 15, 2020 if you will be donating anything for IFDC, so I can give you credit
                 in the souvenir book. You can also email me at jimfaraone666@gmail.com.

Freebie Table Donations
Those of you who have attended past conventions are now used to our Freebie Tables at the Opening Recep-
tion. This is a great way to clean out your homes of any doll related items you may no longer want for the Free-
bie Tables. Items can be dolls, doll parts and heads, fabrics, trims, books, magazines, doll stands, beads, sequins,
miniatures, craft things....well just about anything you don’t want. This is a fun clean up time for all, but I bet
you go home with other things so it’s not that much of a clean up but more of a free swap meet.

We’re going to do the Freebie Tables a little differently this year... stay tuned to the IFDC Facebook page and
Yahoo Groups for more details as the convention gets closer. In the meantime, you can either bring your dona-
tions with you and drop them off at Registration, or you can mail them ahead to Bruce Nygren.

Goody Bag Donations
If you would like to send or make things for the goody bags, you would need to send 250 items. Items in the
goody bags are a great way to promote yourself or your work. Just no single business cards, though your busi-
ness card could be attached to your items. Items can be anything doll related or things like pens or things that
people could use at a convention.

Deadline is May 1, 2020 or you can bring it with you to the convention, but goody bag items must be brought
to the workroom by 10:00 a.m. the Tuesday before the convetion to make it into the bags. If they arrive late,
it’s fine and we’ll use them at the meal events on the tables. We never pass up anything.

  Raffle Donations
As you may know, the registration fee never fully pays all the bills for the convention. The raffles help pay the
extra expenses so any donations of raffle prizes would be greatly appreciated. Anything doll related is perfect
for a raffle prize. If each person just donated 1 raffle item, it would make such a wonderful raffle room to be-
hold! But of course more than one raffle item per person donated would be SUPER!

Name: ____________________________ Email: _______________________________ No. of Items: ________

Please send all raffle donations to Bruce Nygren, and please mark the front of the box “Raffle Donations”. You
can also bring your raffle donations with you and hand them in at Registration. Please attach a note to each
item with your name on it so that we can give you credit for the donation.
Be an Event Sponsor
If you’re a company, dealer or an individual and would like to sponsor part of an event, here is what you’ll be
able to sponsor. Yes, those at one table could chip in also to sponsor part of an event. Each item must be at least
$25 or more and below is the list of events to be sponsored. Each sponsor (and their table mates) will get to sit at
tables 3-10 (or the next few numbers) and will always be up front at each meal event, and your name will be
listed as a sponsor in the souvenir book plus a free quarter-page ad. Some have already pledged to be a spon-
sor, so the list is not long and the more the merrier. You can send the items to Bruce Nygren, or you can bring
them with you to the convention.

__________ Best Costume Prizes – 8 items		 __________ Surprise Give-Away – 4 items (one
								                                                     supplied by the IFDC)
__________ Best Table Prizes – 10 items		  __________ Other Prizes – 5 items

 Vegetarian / Vegan Meal
Most meals at IFDC are buffet style, and a variety is provided to suit any dietary needs. However, for the Final
Night Banquet you MUST request a Vegan Meal Ticket in advance! If you do not request a Ticket by May 1,
You WILL NOT receive a vegetarian/vegan meal! (The meal will not include dairy, in order to accommodate
both the vegetarian and vegan diets.) No changes with the hotel can be made after that date.

       _________ Yes, I need a Vegan Meal Ticket for the final night banquet.

                               Deadline is May 1, 2020 (FIRM)
Get Your Costumes Ready!
Though not a requirement at the convention, many people like to dress up at some of the main events. And
yes, there will be prizes for the best costumes!!! Stay tuned to our Facebook page and Yahoo Group for more
details on the costume events, we will announce very soon which events and what the themes will be.

  Table Gifts
Though not a requirement for this convention, it would be a nice idea to help out the table hosts and treat your
table mates to a little gift at this event. If each person could bring 9 little gifts for the people seated at their
table, I think it would make an exciting gesture from all. The gifts do not have to be big things. Fun things can
be found in the Dollar Stores and who can pass up some little pieces of candy to munch on, or if you’re artistic,
create a little something for each person at your table. Again, this is not a requirement, but a fun thing for
everyone..... Don’t be cheap... do something!

  Business Card Ad in Souvenir Book - $5
For those who contribute a raffle prize, goody bag items, dolls, etc. the ad is FREE. For others, a business card
with your information on it will be added the the Souvenir Book for $5. It’s a great way to get noticed by the
other conventioneers. This ad is text only; logos or other images cannot be included. Print out your ad the way
you want it written, and attach it to this form, or handwrite it in the box below.

                                    Deadline is April 1, 2020
Join the Convention Yahoo Group
Do join the Yahoo group for the convention at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/IFDConvention/
Here you will be playing monthly contests for prizes plus you will hear more about the IFDC or changes in the
event. This is the group where you’ll get to sign up for extra souvenir and companion dolls, so don’t be lazy and
not join. You’ll also get to meet others attending the convention and make some friends before you even arrive.
Join up today and don’t miss out because I hate to hear whining! Also once I know about the souvenir and
companion dolls I do report their prices on the group so you know how to budget yourself and I even post the
whole menu for the convention so if you don’t like the food you can hit McDonald’s first.

  Souvenir Shop
Once the line is finished of those purchasing their Companion dolls, the next line will form for those who are
listed to purchase extra Souvenir and Companion dolls. When you registered you got an email to sign up for
extra dolls. You’ll get a number(s) and the names will be taken in order. This year there is a limit of one (1) extra
Souvenir and one (1) extra Companion doll per person. It’s first come, first served and if you are not around
when your name is called out, you will miss out on the dolls you want and go to the bottom of the list.

  Well, Gang.....
That’s it, and hopefully you like what you see. If you find mistakes in spelling or anything, forgive me, but Mi-
crosoft screwed up all my files (never purchase things from Microsoft) and I had to get new software which I’m
trying to slowly learn. But I wanted to make sure this gets out on time and though I’m figuring out the basics,
I’m still not used to this software and how to do certain things. Now to see if I can figure out how to set up the
other things for the convention, but at least I have time for that with the software. A HUGE thanks to Renatta
Rasmussen for getting this on the website for us.....and making me look smart!

See you all in June!
