The events, offered across the United States, Canada and Australia, will be hosted by members of Creative Memories' 10,000+ Independent Advisor community.

Creative Memories has a longstanding passion for bringing people together to "crop," (making albums and scrapbooking) and views Croptoberfest as an excellent opportunity to do just that.
"We're dedicated to helping people celebrate life's special moments," said Creative Memories owner, Caleb Hayhoe. "In a recent survey of 1,000 women between the ages of 25 and 44, more than sixty percent said they wish they saved and shared memories more often. Events like Croptoberfest give them a reason to devote time to saving the photos and memories that matter."
Activities at Croptoberfest events are as varied as the Independent Advisors hosting them, but all will feature quality scrapbooking time using the new Project Recipe™ Kits. Other activities may include Paper Buffets™, an activity where attendees create custom paper packs, scavenger hunts, drawings for prizes, refreshments and more.
To assist Independent Advisors hosting their own Croptoberfest events, Creative Memories offers extensive marketing support to their global Advisors, providing everything from branded invitations, banners and gift bag tags to sample event schedules, event goals, wish lists and much more. This year, the company also created a Croptoberfest website that allows Independent Advisors to promote their event.
Mr. Hayhoe states, "There is a mind-numbing flow of images today, which can lead to a dilution of the importance of special moments with loved ones. We cannot simply hope our memories and photos survive in the abyss of social media, which is why we curate and preserve them together as a community. It's why there has been such a huge scrapbooking resurgence in recent years; people are craving emotional and physical connection. Scrapbooking provides a hands-on crafting and connecting experience, and the result—a beautiful, meaningful album—connects friends and families for generations."
Croptoberfest is just one of several events Creative Memories organizes throughout the year to bring people together to celebrate memory keeping. Other events include National Scrapbook Day ("NSD") celebrated with events in April and May, regular online Virtual Crops and workshops Independent Advisors host throughout the year.
