Newark, DE is 2-3 hours for me.
Not sure if I want to take the ride.
We have to wait to see what the offerings are.

Since we can only get two ornaments signed why bother with the travel. Someone would almost have to live in the city where the event is held. And I don't want to take the sales away from my small store.

And I don't want to take the sales away from my small store. It would still be fun to meet the artists and hang out with fellow collectors. And you can get more signed of this year's ornaments, you just can't bring a ton of ornaments from home. It gives everyone an equal chance. For me, since I'm not a member of the KOC, it sounds like I can't get anything signed. Not sure if there is something for me that Saturday or not with the artists, so it probably isn't worth the drive.

Are those dates correct? Doesn't Ornament Premiere start that weekend - July 15, 2023?
Why would they hold artists signings on that weekend? Yes and that is pretty dumb, isn't to hold on Premiere weekend.

Now they collide with Comic Con.
Some of the artists have been shifted.

Hotel room blocks will not be offered. Our club president received info that the Fri night (now 7/21) signings were for 2 ornaments only from the 2023 line and the Sat (now 7/22) signings were for 4 ornaments only from the 2023 line. It did not sound like ornaments from past years were going to be allowed for signing. Has anyone seen anything that can confirm this is now the correct information?

IMHO, a KOC member can bring ANY two of the the artists' ornaments for signing on Friday, based on the excerpt from digital dreamBook.

My issue is that the information Hallmark sent directly to club presidents appears to contradict that excerpt. It's possible that what was sent out to the club presidents was already set up to be mailed out before the change was made and they didn't get the update to the people who send it out in time. Hallmark has a long and involved approval process for what gets released and sometimes the latest information may not get into that information stream in time to meet the release date.
