<p>If you'll be at R-Day please stop by the Illinois Parents' Club booth after your 90 second good-bye. I'll have plenty of tissue for all of you and look forward to meeting you.</p>
<p>Where will the booth be? I look forward to meeting you and again thank you for all your help.</p>

<p>Ditto the Georgia Parents Club table. With a firstie and an incoming candidate I will be both passing out and using the tissues! The tables are located in Eisenhower Hall, and you will be directed to them after you say your 90 second goodbye...</p>
<p>Hey!! Momoftwins--- I'm going to be a "new cadet" from central IL. My parents recently joined the USMA Illinois Parents Club as well. What part of IL are you from?</p>
<p>where will the tissues for new cadets be?</p>
<p>NJNetsFan,</p>
<p>Our club is basically northern Illinois, but we'll be happy to provide tissue to any Illinois parents (or cc parents ;)).</p>
<p>Harri,</p>
<p>New Cadets get to do pushups if they cry, so no tissue. :D But I'll have some for your folks.</p>
<p>Kate,</p>
<p>I'm also looking forward to meeting you - finally! :) :) Right after you say your good-byes :eek: and exit the auditoreum, you'll notice the convention-type booths. There will be lots of opportunity to buy West Point "stuff" in order to cheer up the crying moms. :cool:</p>

<p>My daughter is also from Central Illinois. Even though MOT has helped me answer a ot of questions, and lent her expertise on many occassions, we did join the St. Louis WPPC. (Simple geography, but we may still join the Chicago one as well.) Wish I has known a couple of days sooner; last Sunday the St. Louis club had their "Hail and Farewell" luncheon and it was fun and informative. A gal from our area that we knew from a club several years ago just finished her Plebe year, so the two girls had the chance to re-visit old times and a lot of questions were asked and answered.</p>
<p>If you're interested in sending us a PM, feel free. We may be located closer than we know.</p>
