Where is the Macaroni Kid Lady and Why is She Giving Stuff Away?

By Barbara Evangelista, Publisher October 12, 2017


Did you know Macaroni Kid is a national company?  There are over 500 editions of Macaroni Kid across the United States and even in Canada.  Every year, we gather for a "Macaroni Kid Meetup" conference to learn, share ideas, and reboot so that we can make our Macaroni Kid edition the best it can be (and take care of mama bear too).  We have inspirational speakers, power-hour sessions, lots of fun, and visits to the highlights of our host area.  We also get TONS OF SWAG from lots of national sponsors!

This year we're staying at The Montauk Yacht Club Resort & Marina on Long Island.  I can't wait to visit -- it's only a few hours away but I've never been to Long Island!  I'll also be spending a day in the North Fork area to visit the Long Island Aquarium, Bug Light Lighthouse, Pindar Vineyards, East End Seaport Museum plus meals at the Blue Duck Bakery and Village Cheese Shop.  Look for more info on these beautiful areas in an upcoming article, in case you've been thinking of bringing the family to Long Island!

Follow my posts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram this coming week -- look for the #MKMeetup hashtag -- and like and/or comment to be entered to win your very own bag of amazing goodies from all our sponsors!  Our wonderful sponsors include Get Qurious, Jenny Craig, Kind Snacks, Minute Rice, Bob's Red Mill Natural Foods, Alternavites, Blue Orange Games, Barbie by Mattel, Dreft, emmy's organics, Justin's Nut Butter, BAND-AID, Mabel's Labels, Tom's of Maine, Pretzel Crisps, Tetley Tea, Wonder Ball and even Volkswagen of America (but I don't think I'll be getting a Jetta to stuff in the swag bags).  I'll be posting from October 14 to October 17 and announcing the winner by October 20.  Good luck!
