[Woodcarver] Announcement of a new woodcarving/woodworking show ...

[Joe Dillett]

Hey Larry,

Thanks for making this exciting announcement. It truly is exciting and it's 
only $30 per table or $45 for a 10 X 10 booth. For Pheasant Run, in Saint 
Charles, those prices are unheard of. Home Shows get $800 for a 10 X 10 
booth for a weekend. A table for a club is 1/2 price. As for myself I plan 
on carving a BIG CLUB so I'm sure to get my table at half price. :>)

Saint Charles is an up-scale area. So I wonder why they allow me in? I've 
had much success doing Home Shows in this facility for many years. I'm happy 
to see this Winter Wood Wonders Show going into this same room.

This is not a craft show. It is for all types of woodworking (no pottery). 
The bestest news of all is Big Dog will be there. I will be there but maybe 
arriving late, because that's the day I'm coming back from a couple of weeks 
in Puerto Vallarta.

Below is the information and who to contact for a table. I've talked with 
Sandy Jennings. She and Orlan Jennings have been to the GOW. They are great 
people and really doing this right. You also may know Sharon Bechtold from 
teaching at the GOW? She's awesome too. I'm excited.
