Such as Gail and Steve Almeida from Lakeville, Ma. They gave us a pet travelling bowl. Adorable and so convenient.

Marty Mantis from Hartford, CT gave each of us a tie-dye Tshirt, great for working at the gym
Dave Mattson from Concord, from New Hampshire gave us each compact green travelling bags.

Mike Fleming from Weymouth, Ma gave us many different pens

Another suppllier named Tom , that I met on the way out, gave us Papermate color pencils in pouches.

One other supplier that caught my eye was a young lady with the name, Kerrie-Lynn. I told her what a beautiful name. I have 2 sons and if I had a daughter her name was going to be Kerrie-Lynn spelled tha same as yours with the hyphen. She gave a great presentation on branded desktop software calendars.
