I know this is not a convention, but AP did get involved with promoting Season 3 of Meerkat Manor.


"Word-of-mouth Campaign

The network has developed an influencer program for mothers with active social networks who can spread the word about MEERKAT MANOR. Animal Planet has sent custom meerkat packages to include a sneak-peek DVD and "burrow banter cards" to help stir conversation; the packages reach nearly 300,000 moms nationwide.

Anyone on the forum get a meerkat package?

Animal Planet Expos and Zoo Presence

In partnership with local affiliates, Animal Planet brings a free, family- friendly festival to 12 cities across the nation this summer. With more than 200,000 expected visitors throughout the traveling event, the network is providing meerkat fans to help visitors keep cool during the dog days of summer and features sneak peeks of the new season and photo opportunities with larger-than-life-size meerkats. The network also is spreading meerkat mania to zoos nationwide by distributing meerkat fans and sponsoring a summer concert series -- Disneymania's Concerts for Conservation."

They should be able to help in some *manor*!

i think the package sounds great. how do i get mine? if there's a way, i'll figure out how to get extras. a good friend of mine brought me some red and orangey colored roses. what a surprise! too bad my DM doesn't know how to make a girl happy. candy would be nice though. enjoy your dollar goodies hildy! lol hey dmoo, congtats. after you retire and you're rovin the country, come through illinois and have some coffee. was watching the news about that deal in northern ill. things are crazy anymore. it's hard enough to keep kids in school as it is and you got idiots out there doing this stuff. my heart goes out to those up there and their families. you know, i still don't know about darkdreamDD. has anyone heard from her?. i don't know why, but i really think alot of her. hope she is doing ok. i'm ramblin on again aren't i? sorry. i can only have so much conversation with the dogs. hee hee take care and lots of hugs everybody.

Korkie, hey sister, been missing you too! Yes, conversations with the doggies does tend to be one sided! Still they love us and we need it. The roses sound beautiful. Valentines must be just not a guy thing. I just remembered that I have an uncle in Ill. too. May just have to travel that way! Wink

Hey Hildy, haning in there sister! lol

Korkiemama, I got my tin foil hat on! I think it may be helping a bit. We have a flu epidemic here, and what ever it is, the flu shots are not helping people at all! Go figure. It makes all your joints hurt. Yucky stuff.

Hugs to all, and hope you all have a good day.

Ladies...I just love reading this thread, don't post much, but I 'peek' in....ya'll lift my spirits.

Sure would like to know more about that package, and just maybe if any of our local zoos are chosen for the meerkat awareness and concert....just maybe some of us could meet. My closet zoos would be Indy, Louisville, and the farthest would be St. Louis.

If not, I'lll just settle for the 'package' here Wink

Hey Hildy, hope your day was a good one sister!

Hey Debbe, good to see you hear! I dont know anything about that package stuff!

Korkiemama, darling, I feel for you! They only do one knee at a time, right? I know what you mean about whos paying for it! Please let us know what they find on the MRI. I have Scoliosis, and my twisted spine is pushing my ribs out. I need to see an orthapedic dr. I'am like you, whos going to pay for it! Lol

Hugs to you all and have a good evening sisters.

Hey Debbe it is good to see you post here!! Keep coming back, we have kinda our own little sisterhood here (and of course Wilson is always welcome). After I retire this June, I hope to make many quilts, as I really enjoy quilting in the morning..in the morning light. Sure I have thought of a meerkat quilt...just need the time to design one. I am working on a couple of projects now.

Hey Korkie...you poor sweetie...keep us posted with all those scans!

Kesche...yes..I wish we could all have free medical insurance!! Sure would help!

Hope everyone has a great Thursday!
