Mabel Adams Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 I get in late on Friday and am booked in the evenings until Tues. And then may try to meet a friend that lives back there. Anyone want to plan a meeting spot at the CTTXPO during one of the on-site lunches like we did last year? It's not as long to talk but still a chance to put a name to a face.

Mabel Adams Posted September 22, 2012 Author Share Posted September 22, 2012 I see BBT site sponsors Quotient, GenesisBPS and Helmer booths are all near each other. There's more room near the Genesis booth although there may not be anyplace there to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Can I bring a friend? Another Blood Bank Supervisor. She's a "creeper" on this site, but has never posted (chicken). Her name is Rita.I'll answer for the others: OF COURSE!!! Rita is most welcome!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always a booth to sit in or something similar.Mabel just set the date and time.Anyone else?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are always the coffee breaks. I will check my schedule and post again. We can always go to the International lounge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Mabel, you started this thread in 2010!! Of course we must meet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mabel Adams Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Now I am thinking of a tag to add to our badges or bags--brightly colored, unique, visible from a distance. "Hi, I'm a Blood Bank Talker." Hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A dinner would be a lot harder to coordinate.So, is this the new plan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPruden Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I got swamped on Friday and didn't get a chance to respond. If dinner is still a possibility, then I am game. I would also like to bring a lurker friend, Laura! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 It sounds like this is the best plan for everyone, agreed? A dinner would be a lot harder to coordinate.So, is this the new plan?To accommodate everyone, i would keep both options. Dinner is looking good for most except Mabel and Colleen. And I will arrange with Mabel where to meet and announce it. Dinner isnt that hard, is it? I am coming from far far far away so is the problem the reservation? I love red lobster but have always had to wait (with or without a reservation). So if you really cannot reserve we can go to McDo as you said, but it would be a disapointment.What are your thoughts on this Cliff?For dinner we have: Nine members as per below. Its your call Cliff, I dont know. I would just walk into a restaurant and ask to be seated but i guess that may not work ahhmm sorry if i missed someone please writ your name and ooo we can take a vote (or poll). I am just happy to come over and hopefully meet you all. 1. Liz OK2. Terri OK 3. Rita OK Colleen Maybe4. Julie OK5. Jeanne OK6. Melanie OK7. Dianna OK8. Laura OK9. Cliff OKJohnv Maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Hi Mabel, Where shall we meet? and which date and time suits you best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Pepper Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I started a new thread with this offer but I'll repeat it here:My brother-in-law emailed me last night saying he had 2 guest passes to AABB next week. I am going to miss AABB having a previous engagement in Europe (darn) with my wife to celebrate 40 years of matrimonial bliss. So, the passes are up for grabs. If anyone was going to pay at the door, send me a personal message with a mailing address. First come first served. No promises, I would still have to figure out how to connect with my brother-in-law and get these in the mail but I'll do my best.Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcolm Needs ☆ Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I would LOVE to say "Hi" in Denver Mabel, but, unfortunately and, once again this year, I will not be at the meeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PammyDQ Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I am catching this topic as my shift ends and am unable to read it now. I will be in Denver, we have a poster presentation. I'm posting this so I get updates in my email, and hopefully can catch up on this topic tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Needs ☆ Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Hi Mabel (and other friends on this site), although I will not be at AABB, a very good mate of mine named Dave Bruce is going, and will be presenting a poster entitled, "Successful ABO incompatible kidney transplantation - using Bio-Rad column agglutination technology to assess the risk". If you happen to see him, please say hello and make him feel welcome (as I am certain you would anyway). PammyDQ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMcCord Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Sorry I didn't get back on here and see your answers before the meeting. I see from a comment you made on a different thread that you and I were both in at least one session together. So close..........oh well, such is life.
