Mark Your Calendars! International Babywearing Week 2012

International Babywearing Week 2012 is coming up fast!  This year IBW is Oct 8-14, 2012.  This year's theme is "Carrying On Traditions."

This year we are planning slightly more laid back events after the huge conference we did this summer, but low key doesn't mean low fun!

Our first event is the Silver Spring meeting which will be held from 9:30am-11:30am on Monday Oct 8th.  LOCATION CHANGE!!!  - This meeting will be held at Kemp Mill Park at the corner of Arcola Ave and Lamberton Dr. in Silver Spring, MD.


Our second event is the Tysons-Pimmit meeting which will be held from 10am-12noon on Wednesday, Oct. 10th.  This meeting is held in the meeting room at Tysons-Pimmit Regional Library in Falls Church, VA.  This meeting is often followed by a social lunch together at a nearby restaurant.

Our main event will be a fashion show event held at Abby's Lane store in Manassas, VA.  The fashion show will be held at 12noon on Saturday, October 13th.  The store is located directly across the tracks from the train station in Manassas.  We are so grateful that they are willing to host our special event!

At each event you will have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for our drawings.  We have a few smaller prizes, plus we will have an Original Ergo carrier, 2 Beco Butterfly carriers, Ergo will be donating another Ergo for giveaway, a Boba Wrap, and Abby's Lane has donated a Petunia Picklebottom Ergo in the Holland print to our drawing!  The drawing will take place directly following the fashion show on Saturday.
