A bunch of us from AMPS will be going and we'll be staffing a table with AMPS junk - hats, mugs, membership forms etc. You can sign up or re-up on the spot. Just look for the AMPS banner

Are we going to get together while at the show? Maybe we can get a group picture of those that made it to Virginia Beach, any ideas?
Thanks

Great idea. We just have to figure out when and where to meet. What days will everyone be attending?

I was planning on going, but the best laid plans came to an end with a new work assignment, way too many hours and unable to take the time off in the foreseeable future.
Hopefully everything returns to normal by September for AMPSEAST.

Hey,

That sounds like a net idea!

I for one will be driving down there on the 8th (early morning) and will be staying through to the last day, which is on the 9th.

Hope to see you all there!

Friday might not work for me. We are planning on going up to Busch Gardens on Friday, plus I have to judge Friday night.
How about Thursday afternoon or early evening. Maybe we can all meet for lunch or go out to eat somewhere.

Thursday is good for me. As a local boy, I can be there just about any day or time except Saturday.

Which would be better for everyone, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday? Let's try to coordinate this so we can all meet, get a picture and get to know each other.

Sorry to hear you won't be able to make it. For the rest of us, we are planning on meeting on Thursday evening, 6:30 at the door leading into the contest room for a group picture. I'll be the guy with the Pirates of the Carribean t shirt on holding the Armorama sign. Who's going to be there
