I have heard it mentioned both here and in a couple other places that there will not be a 2009 tradeshow in Wisconsin (Richland Center).
After talking with Dirk and Karen Boelman, the rumors are false. There WILL be a Scrollsaw Tradeshow in Richland Center WI in 2009. Here is some of what they had to say...........
Hi Dale! Yes, we are having a trade show this summer. It will be [B]July 31 and August 1[/B], 2009. Are people just wondering, or is someone telling people we're not holding it? If that's the case we, of course, would like to know so we can clear up any mis-information out there. and..
YES....we have decided to do the show again this year!!!! Floyd said he's willing to do it at least one more year, if we are!!!! It will be Friday and Saturday, July 31 and August 1. We will have classes on both days this year, rather than just on Friday.I will try to organize the classes to be held just until noon each day. I hope to have all the classes set up by the end of January. We are trying to round up new vendors, and working hard to try to make this years show better. Although our attendance was down last year, it was low at all of the picnics, so I think it was just a tough year all around. It would be great if gas prices would be like they are now!!!!! We are going to try to do more advertising this year, and we are trying real hard to get more vendors lined up. I have several ideas for people to do classes, just have to contact everybody to see if they are willing .
(those were cut/pasted from emails from both Dirk and Karen) So, if anyone has any ideas, or want to be vendors or seminar speakers, I am sure they would love for you to contact them. I am anxiously awaiting the event!
