Hi All,
We signed up to do the Richmond Logging and Sawmilling show this year. We'll be at booth #118 in the main building showing off our tools and getting some feedback.
Any other Forestry Forum members going?

I'm going to do my best to get there, it's always a great show. With them moving it from May to June it's harder for me as early June is the start of our hay mayking season. I got my registration back already, so now maybe I'll have to go. Might even get me one of them Log-Rite cant hooks.

We'll be there! We usually do Richmond up pretty big. We'll be in booths N-4 and N-5 outside and 117 inside. Hope to see some you guys there!

Looks like Wood-Mizer is going to be there also.. They've got it on their show calendar.

Mary and I sure like Virginia but it's a little out of our travelin’ circle.

A little birdie told me WM may be showing another improvement to their LT15 mill at the Richman show.

Sam,
It sounds like you may have done the Richmond show before? Question for you or anyone else for that matter. how far is the dealer parking area from the display area's/buildings? I've found that our 10 x 10 booth is a little cramped to hold a lot of tools in stock. I frequently have to run to the truck to fetch more tools and I'm wondering how many miles I have to run back and forth.

It's been four years since I was there personally. I think you can figure about two football field away from the buildings. Not a marathon, but you should get some exercise!

It's been a pretty busy show in the past, often hard to get out of the booth for lunch even! I'll be working our inside booth most of the time. Looks like we might be neighbors Pete, so I'm sure I'll see you there!

Is this open to the public? Do you need a sponsor? Is there a entrance fee? Parking fee? Just want to make sure and dig deep enough into the wife's purse.

Hey 'Teach, Frickman and everyone else coming, be sure to stop by the Peterson tent for a picture with RevCant and myself.

Oh yeah, and bring me a log and a materials list

Hey Captain,

We're expecting a nice plate of cookies in return for those 3 logs we're bringing for you. NO COOKIES, NO LOGS!

The way the rains are falling it looks I may be able to make it. My right hand man here says he'd ride along for company. You all will have to pick a place to meet on Saturday afternoon.

I'm planning on being there a least for Friday.

Jarod and I decided we're going for sure. I say we meet at the Woodmizer display at 2:00 Saturday. I'll be the little runt wearing a forum hat.
