Fat Girl Flea Market - will there be another one?

shira...@verizon.net (Shira Stone) — Mon, 05 May 2008 17:03:15 UT

Hi All,
So it's been 7 months since the last AMAZING FAT GIRL FLEA!. And the big question is: will there be another one?
As you know, the Fat Girl Flea is a phenomenal event. Working on it and going to it are great fun. But it also involved a lot of work (fun work, but work nonetheless):) Here is the situation. There have been many many amazing women working on the flea over the past 5 years. But each year, there has been one person who ended up doing a very large portion of the work. Four of those years that person was the amazing Deb Malkin, and the other year it was the wonderful Holly Hessinger. Neither of those two lovely ladies will be available to work on the flea in the future. So the real question is: are there enough of us willing and able to do everything that needs to be done, and able to truly commit to doing that work?
