    That's a decent turnout and it sure sounds like it went pretty well.

    I am still going try and get MWDH club to be a part of NADA 2016 in the Chicago/Milwaukee area. Since NADA just ended, I believe we has some time to get our ducks in a row providing we have some drinks and discuss what our chances are going to be. We have some creative minds in the club and well, if we think about it hard enough and over a few cocktails, I am sure we can work something out.

    Never say die attitude!

    Works for me. Only a 14 hour drive. The only trouble with Chicago would be the increase in cost of everything that is connected to a union. Down here we do all of the setup and tear down. Would ya'll as the local club get to do that or would you have to hire it out?

    When I sponsored Sportscard shows at hotels, I did all the setup and tear-downs. The only union effect will be if the hotels are union run or not.

    Hopefully we can get this part of it worked out first in finding a location suitable for everyone.

    Fort Wayne Indiana or Toledo Ohio would solve that problem.
