After taking off for a year, Light Up Ohio is coming back bigger and better. It all starts Friday - May 16th at our Meet & Greet. This is where we can all get together, over a great meal, and share ideas. It's a great place to ask questions, and get some of your confusion cleared up by being able to talk, one on one, with various fellow decorators. Plus, it is always lots of fun and a great place to make new friends.
Then comes the "Main Event" on Saturday - May 17th. It will be a full day of fun, education, socializing, and of course, lot's of great food. There will be various experts in attendance, and the educational agenda will be second to none. Lots of vendors are already getting on board, so you will be able to see some of the new products coming out, as well as take advantage of the great discounts they are offering.
Light Up Ohio has always prided itself in introducing exclusive products before they are introduced to the public, and this year will be no different. Remember the "JUMP", that was introduced exclusively at Light Up Ohio by Walter and Jackie Monkhouse.
Registration is now open at our website www.lightupohio.com. I hope to see you there. Lots of things have been finalized, and we will be releasing more information in the next several days. I think you will be surprised.

RGB: Where Do You Start?
So you've probably watched videos with RGB elements and you're thinking about adding some to your display. But where do you start? Maybe you've started researching them? Hours later your head is spinning. Well at LUO you can learn from someone in that very position a year ago. Hear his story; learn from his research, his mistakes, and his experience and advice. This presentation will offer tips and thoughts about how to get started on the RGB technology.

Have you registered yet? Have you booked your hotel room (if needed)?
If you're still undecided about attending our event, you might want to make a decision soon as it's limited seating and it is filling up fast & you don't want to miss out on the great event we have planned!

Just an FYI...
In the event we have a large group of people at the Meet 'N Greet, we "may" have to move the gift exchange to one of the hotel lobbys where people are staying

White Elephant Gift Exchange Update:
We will be having a White Elephant gift exchange after the presentations on Saturday. We were going to do it at the M&G, but there are so many people going to the M&G, it might get kind of chaotic in a restaurant. Plus, having it on Saturday will allow more people to participate, it's a lot of fun!!! If anyone attending wants to get in on it, bring a wrapped gift with you.
Can't wait to see you at Light Up Ohio 2014.
