Out of curiosity

[hummingwolf]

Does anybody know of any websites written by or about people who grew up in Amway households? Something about the family going on vacations to Ada, Michigan to see the Amway facilities or to the Nutrilite plant (whose location I'm forgetting)? Kids growing up knowing how to deliver the circles presentations and able to spout forth all the reasons why Amway is superior to all those other silly companies people compare it to? Going to summer camps run by Amway Crown Directs? Singing along with LPs and tapes of the Sanborn Singers? Hanging around patiently in Amway conventions convinced you'll soon be motivated enough to sell lots of products and become a Crown yourself when you turn eighteen?

I have a feeling such a website should exist, but I don't want to be the one to write it.

Oh, but I wasn't an orphan! If anything, I was scarily involved. I liked going to Amway conventions!

It appears we had a somewhat similar young life. To answer your question if you still care more than a year later, you may want to try the forums at www.quixtarblog.com. Amway is now Quixtar in the US.

I went to the summer camp twice in Rockford, MI run by Skip & Sue Ross. If that's the same one you are talking about, send me a PM at that website (my username is 'inheriter') if you want to compare notes.
