EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK...2nd Michigan PEZ Convention rundown!

Our award winner for the best
custom made PEZ Dispenser in 2016 Jim Blaine,
the man behind the Michigan PEZ Convention, started last year right after his first very successful Convention
with the work for his second event in 2017.
It's always hard to top the first event,
but today we are super happy to report,
and to show you the EXCLUSIVE VERY FIRST LOOK
what Jim conjures up for the
2nd annual MICHIGAN PEZ CONVENTION
which will be held 
August 24-27 2017,

and for sure he will rock it!!
 
In 2016 Jim has introduced the MI mascot, a dapper man sporting a top hat.
He featured on 6 different colored dispensers, each representing
something different. The highlight of these dispensers was their magnetic centerpiece, which allowed the centers to be swapped between the other stems.

For this year, Jim is excited to introduce someone new, the mascot's wife <3
This years design was again drawn by the amazing talented Eddie Santiago.

New Michigan
Pez ​Convention 2017 Logo
This free-spirited hippie chick will also be featured
on a series of 6 different dispensers in new shades.
Not only the 2017 dispensers have the same magnetic centerpieces as 2016, but they will also be interchangeable with all
MIPEZCON dispensers from both years!

Jim is planning to bring back many of the fun activities yet again for all to enjoy, such as the bean bag tournament, live auction, silent auction, swap party, and VIP Dinner party, he is excited to announce some changes to this year's agenda:
A official new cohost Jody Blaine
The Socks & Crocs Game Night Mix & Mingle
The Bean Bag Tournament is a repeat from last year

THE PEZ MALL it's time to show the general public how we really do PEZ convention by room hopping.

Jim have continued also the partnership with Camp Lake Louise, providing a healthy and rewarding experience to underprivileged children that they may not otherwise have the opportunity to do.

Dealers: If you were a dealer last year... you will have the first option to register, and we plan to give you the option to register for the the room you had last year!

The charity dispenser will again be offered at the time of registration.
We have made some changes for next year, but we think that the new changes will create an even more exciting event!!
We have worked out most of the details with the hotel, and the hotel has agreed to honor last years rates! This is huge!!! Since the hotel offers AN AMAZING FREE BREAKFAST & FREE (alcoholic) DRINKS & SNACKS EVERY NIGHT!

A Jolly Pezzy good time with Jessica & Juan...

With all of the gatherings happening around the world Jessica & Juan have opened their home to celebrate a wonderful Christmas gathering.
With a fun Christmas theme and familiar atmosphere Jessica is sharing the behind the scenes with us, Thank you Jessica!


The Christmas Pez Gathering all started by me wanting to hang out with Pezzy friends and my husband wanting to show everyone the amazing Christmas Decorations/lights he puts up every year... 4 years later here we are going on 
The 4th Christmas PEZ Gathering!!!



The 4th Annual Christmas Pez Gathering is just a few short days away. This year has gone by so fast. I'm so excited that it is almost here! I've been working like crazy to make sure I have everything ready to go! 

The Official Gathering is on December 3rd at 4:00pm.... The Christmas Gathering is always on the first Saturday of December. But on the Friday before the gathering everyone who is in town meets up and goes to dinner then we head back to my house to sit by the fire pit and just hang out.

I've been packing up all the gathering packs and putting together all the bingo prizes. We are having an extra round of bingo this year that has some sweet pez in it!






We start out the gathering by everyone setting up any pez they brought to sell and then we eat street tacos that I have had catered for the party :) I also make a bunch of different types of cookies and sweets. 
We have an endless supply of drinks and food all night long. 
There is always a door prize to give away and this year it is an Ugly Christmas Sweater Contest. The person who has the
UGLIEST Christmas Sweater 
will win the door prize and boy oh boy is it a cool prize! 

We also play a game called the White Elephant game.
Everyone attending the gathering must bring a Pezzy gift with a 15 dollar value or higher and wrap it up all pretty but don't put a tag on it... 
By the end of the game everyone will have a new pez gift to take home with them.

also play BINGO!!! You have to have bingo at a pez gathering! We usually have 4 rounds of bingo and 1 mega bingo.... But this year We are going to do 4 regular rounds of bingo 1 mega bingo and 1 super special amazing bingo!!!!!

I wish I could win these prizes!!!! It gets pretty intense once people start winning and opening up their bingo bags to see what they have won😉

After all the games are done we all just hang out and talk and laugh the night away. We sit outside by the fire pit and catch up on what's happening in everyone's life.

Christmas is my favorite time of year and I'm so thankful that I get to bring some Christmas Joy into other Pezhead's lives
🎄


-Jessica & Juan
