“ thanks to everyone who came and helped. It was good to have some laughs and build our group. ” -
“ This had a great turnout--I think better than anticipated. It was just the right amount of stuff going on; the performers, the speakers, the food, the apparel, and the informational booths. The Debbie downer things I have to say is that it was a pretty chilly bike ride there (I'm wussy when it comes to the cold), they ran out of food fairly early (because so many people showed up), and that it was only a 6-hour event. I wanna suggest that next year it be longer, or two days; earlier in the year; and have plenty of grub for us0 hungry vegans. Couldn't think of a better way to celebrate my 1-year anniversary (almost) of being vegan. ” -
“ Pretty fun. A lot of vegans, I was surprised! This is the first time I've ever been in the same room as another veg*n. xD ” -
“ A very good first run for a new fair and should be even better next year. ” -
“ There from 1-4. Didn't see any ChicagoVeg people I know. Music much too loud. Hard communicating with vendors and hearing speakers. ” -
“ Awesome ” -

Sorry I couldn't make it, had prior commitment. Hope for sure next time. Sounds like all had a great time. :)
Thank you everyone for stopping by ChicagoVeg booth! It was a lot of fun to meet so many vegans, vegetarians, and raw foodists at the same time! Please go to VeganMania Prizes discussion board (http://www.meetup.com/ChicagoVeg/boards/thread/7842190/
) to enter a comment or just say "Hi" to be entered for our drawings with 3 exciting prizes!
Trying to win some prizes ;o). VeganMania was awesome, awe-inspiring, and CROWDED! For once, I was pleased. I'm so proud of Chicago folks who put this on and big props to Chicago for being Vegan friendly. I had a great time.
Katie and Cara: The more people we will have helping at the booth the better. We will have better chance to promote ChicagoVeg, explore the expo at the same time, and enjoy hanging out all together!
Hi Vadim, There's a strong probably that I can attend later that afternoon. If so, I hope to pitch-in sometime later in the day. Will update response and confirm.
Hi Vadim - I could get there at 10AM and help you out. Do you still need people? Just let me know.
Thank you Sophia. I plan to be there starting at 10 AM so it would be nice to have some one to help!
