  1. I have registered and would like to list my event this October. Is there a link to the event page to fill in my information? Thanks, Jack Johnson Schoenbrunn Village Trade Fair.

    1. Thank you for listing the event. We’ve been on the road for the past couple of weeks and haven’t had much time to add to the website. What you put up looks great, I did add the physical address to Schoenbrunn Village.

      Thanks,
      Frank

  2. Hi Folks! I think I’ve properly registered and followed all instructions. I still can’t find the form to list new events. I have two events and one museum I’d like to register. Please help! 🙂 Holly Sheen

  3. Hi,
    I just registered for your group. I belong to the Victorian Society at Falls Church, in Falls Church, VA. I have 2 questions:
    1) Will your Group be doing Yorktown Yule 2023?
    2) We have an electronic Newsletter that comes out about 4 times a year. We’re always looking for more folks to join in our activities and we’re always looking for interesting events of others’ that we can join in. May I send your Group the link to our latest newsletter? If there’s interest, please let me know how we can put your Group on our e-mail list so your members can automatically receive our newsletters.
    Thanks so much,
    Sue
