    AAW Symposium - Who's Going??

    Just curious if we could get a list of fellow "Creekers" that are going to attend the AAW Symposium in St Paul and if your going to enter anything in the instant gallery. We need to coordinate a meet for those attending.

    I have convinced my wife that I HAVE to go and I am likely going to pay the entry fee and enter my three best turnings in the instant gallery and subject them to critiques. I have never attended anything like this and I think it will be pretty cool. My wife, on the other hand, will have to be entertained with NON-woodturning activities so we will be seeing some of the sights in St Paul as well!

    I'm gonna pass this year, but I plan to attend at some point in the future. With two kids under the age or 6, I'm not sure I want to use up all of my 'husband points' to attend this year.

    Scott, I kept a list from the last thread, and the following indicated they would be there - you, Doug W. Swanson, Greg Just, Jeff Nicol, Alan Trout, John Beaver, Joe Meirhaeghe (sp?), Bill Blasic, Patrick Doody.

    I will be attending, and I hope that Steve Schlumpf will be there, as well.

    I figure someone should put a big ballon up above their head to indicate Creeker member, I know a lot of folks want to meet me and I want to meet a bunch of you as well. I will be staying at my daughters house in Inver Grove Heights which is close by and I get to play with my grandson while there too so that is good! I know there are others who plan to go but maybe just for a day and do just the free portion, but I really want to meet some of the world reknown pros and see them in action, it should be a great time for all!

    See you there,

    Jeff

    I plan on attending. I'll be the old guy with the ponytail wearing a tan SMC ball cap! Never been to a symposium before - will they have name tags?

    Yes! I will be there! If we need a place to meet we can always use my booth in the trade show area as a meeting place.
