I know that everyone has been waiting anxiously to find out where the next PR Weekend will be. I have some news for you! It'll be NEW YORK CITY!!!!
I know that many of you chose San Francisco for next year but there is an event in SF next year which clashes with our dates (weekend after mother's day). This event brings tens of thousands of people to SF and it would have been a nightmare to plan anything during that time.
So we have to pick a different city. And what's more exciting than NYC? It has the 3 Fs! Food, Fashion and Of course FABRIC! So, who's with me? Lets rock the city shall we?
I've created a poll to help us plan. We'll need a host and some volunteers to bring it all together.
Are you IN?
