Aplus 525 Report post Posted February 17, 2005 If I just wanted to attend the trade show and the equipment demos, would I have to register, or can I just attend? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted February 17, 2005 Well, I would tell you to call PWNA at 1-800-393-PWNA but the office staff is at the IWCA convention. I'm not sure how they are handling that this year. Maybe John T. will chime in... ;) Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John T 744 Report post Posted February 17, 2005 Hey Tony, I believe you can pay for a one day pass for the Convention. If you go to www.pwna.org you can download the Online Registration. They should have all the prices broken down there. You can also call PWNA headquarters like Beth stated to get some more info. I'm taking the wood certification class Friday and Saturday so I only have a few hours in between to check out the trade show. Hopefully I'll see you there.

Aplus 525 Report post Posted February 17, 2005 Well, when I went to the Pittsburgh convention, admission to the trade show and demos was free. If I have to pay for those, I simply won't go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aplus 525 Report post Posted February 26, 2005 Well I phoned them today, and admission to the trade show and demos are free. So it looks like I'll be heading out sometime Friday, have some time to lounge around, hopefully catch up with a few folks, and be ready for the trade show. It's only 181 miles for me, practically a chip shot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John T 744 Report post Posted February 26, 2005 You can't beat that price :) I hope to get an hour or so in the trade show between the wood certification class I'm taking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted February 26, 2005 Who is going? We are undecided, but most likely are not attending this time. Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aplus 525 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Like I mentioned, I'm going for the show, demos, and any roundtables I can get involved with. A personal friend of mine has also been in the p/w biz for many years, but does not get involved with bbs or such. He decided to make the trip and see what it's all about, see if he can make any contacts with vendors. The way I see it, the whole trip will cost me around $200, which is nothing really, and it helps me get psyched up for the upcoming season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Tony, I hope you have a blast. Take some pics and post them here will you please? It's always fun to see the convention, and the people are the best part. I think they currently have 18 vendors - www.pwna.org . Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted March 19, 2005 I hope the convention is going well for all. Curiosity is in wondering how many people are attending the convention and the trade show? We have been to the last 3 of them and they were great. Rod~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
