I was just thinking and wandering if you ever attended a dog show is is one big convention for all breeders to gather and talk, meet, share ideas and have booths for their products and gadgits you know and they all come from other cities and states each with and representing their associations.
Here is my thoughts after reading here and there Tenn. , Nevada, Cali, Texas and so on has their own associations and conferences why cant there be a forum in here or so that lets us all know where the next WesBeeMaster  (instead of the wesminster LOL) conferance is so that those of us that can attend and would like to meet others in the Beesness can do so like here comming in November 10th - 13th 2005 at the Omni Corpus Chtisti Hotel is the Texas Beekeepers Association convention is going to beeee at and I saw online that Nevada had one as well, Now see wouldnt that bee fun to go see and do and meet new people and see how eachother does things since it does seem all of you in here get along like best friends and I noticed meeting some of the TBA they do as well  :wink:

It would be fun, and I'm sure others here would enjoy it. I'm not totally sure how you go about finding these conventions and things.

Isn't St. Augustine near Jacksonville Florida? I seems I've been there, and that it took about 5 hours from my house. If I'm thinking of the right place, it's on the coast, very pretty, a small town, but lots of touristy things to do - and camping places available.

I'm not making any promises that I would personally go to THAT convention. Money gets mighty tricky around my house, and even a trip that close to home can be costly. Something happening in Atlanta, GA would be WAY easier for me to attend. :)

I so understand tricky $$$, I am still trying to find out who this FICCA person is and why is he taking so much out, then Mr. I need to see and point out a few reasons to his demented mind that he is not my uncle and to stay clear from my checks  :wink:

Festival craftspeople, and food vendors
« Reply #9 on: May 08, 2005, 12:19:51 pm »
http://www.texascountryreporter.com/Festival2005/2005festival.html


The 10th Annual Texas Country Reporter Fall Festival will be held this year on Saturday, September 17, on the square in downtown Waxahachie, Texas. We are currently accepting applications for artists, craftspeople, and food vendors. Please review the rules and send in your completed application to the address given. This year, we are adding a Flea Market section to the festival. While the area nearest to the town square will be reserved for artists and craftspeople who make homemade and limited edition items, the flea market will serve as the perfect location for items that are mass produced for retail sale. Churches and charitable groups are welcome and encouraged to participate in the new flea market area.

Another addition to this year's festival is the final competition in our Texas Country Star contest. Winners from music venues across Texas will compete in Waxahachie and the best of the bunch will get a recording contract with a major label record company!

So whether you're an artist, craftsperson, food vendor, or just someone who wants to come out and enjoy all the fun, we look forward to seeing you at the 10th Annual Texas Country Reporter Fall Festival!

Just click on your region to find out what's happening in your area! You can click on the "Back to Events Calendar" button in the top menu to come back to this page at any time.
We do our best to make sure all listings are accurate, however, we ALWAYS suggest that you call ahead before making plans to attend an event listed on our calendar.
