I stole this infor from another post... so sue me....
It's that time of year again. The Kansas City Woodworking Show is coming March 4-6, 2005. Continuing the tradition started during the Badger Pond days, WoodCentralians descending upon Kansas City will join for breakfast before the show opens on Saturday, March 5. I believe we had 15 plus join in the fun last year. All WoodCentral folks are invited (yes, Power Tool gang included!).
This year, we will meet at the Le Peep Restaurant at College Blvd. and Metcalf Ave. in Overland Park. Our reservations start at 8 AM. Le Peep is at the far west end of the strip shops on the northwest corner of College (about 111th street) and Metcalf. The KC WW show is just minutes away.
I would like a head count if you can join us. This will make sure we have adequate seating. Please e-mail me directly (bward@burnsmcd.com)if you would like to join us. I can probably answer general questions here (on Hand Tools, as I don't check the "Power Tool" side too often) if you have any.
Please see "The Woodworking Shows" website for more details about the show. I believe admission is $9 this year, but that gets you in all three days. You can get a $1 off the admission if you register on-line. I think mail promotions also have an admisstion discount.
In addition to the KC WW Show, Overland Tool will also be having their annual winter show/sale. This place is power tool heaven with everything from cordless tools to commercial equipment. They are in Lenexa at approximately 79th and Nieman. The (Lenexa) Woodcraft Store is also close by at 87th and Bluejacket (close to I-35). Both locations are about 15 minutes from the KC WW Show.
I'm not affiliated with any of the above, blah, blah, blah.
