Title: How Many Times Have You Been to SDC This Year?
Post by: Parson B Ready on November 14, 2010, 09:24:04 PM
Let's see who wins the SDC Fans attendance prize for most visits to SDC this year.

How many times have you been through the turnstiles this year (please only count one visit per day)?
Current SDC employees please distinguish between visits for work and pleasure (though feel free to report both).

The Parson B Ready Family has made 7 visits to SDC this year.  Four days in May, 3 Days in November. Hoping to go back in December.

Work has been relentless, but I have made three visits so far this year! Of course, all three visits were consecutive on the same week, but I am hoping to add more days in December.  :)

8, with 2 more to go. unfortunately I missed out on 2 other trips (more than likely resulting in 4 more visits) due to work/ school/ sports schedule, and a funeral and the subsequent estate cleaning/ moving. But as I said I'll be back in twice more before the year is up! 1more month!!!!!

Hmm,  I'll count backwards.

Three consecutive days this week--Nov. 11, 12, 13
Once in Oct. --Oct. 23
Two days in early Aug. with my cousin--vowed I would not go back until it was cooler
Two days late July--Moonlight Madness
Two days in April--Worldfest

I guess we went 10 times.  My husband and I hope to sneak in a "couple" trip in Dec.

The BBQ festival really does nothing for us, so we haven't gone to that for a few years.  We haven't done a spring break day in a couple of years.  And I love Jesus, but the Gospel Picnic is like torture to me.  However, we've been known to throw in an extra visit to a festival that didn't appeal to us just to get the ornament--great marketing SDC!  It was much easier to get the ornament this year, I must say.   :)

I think my upcoming trip will constitute visits 9 and 10 (each day is with a different group, so I consider them separate trips).

At least twice for each festival. We try to go once as a family and then again just my husband and I. We went several times during Kids Fest because we were so bored over the summer. lol

We have been 8 times so far this year...March, May, July and October.  We'll get two more visits in next week and a couple more just after Christmas.  We missed Labor Day and the Southern Gospel Picnic this year because my oldest daughter had softball games and a cross country meet.

If there is one thing that Kids Fest is good for, it's entertainment! With hundreds of energetic kids running around there is never a dull moment.  :D
