<VV> Convention Schedule

[Paul Chapman]

With all the ideas flying around, thought I'd put my two cents worth in. I've attened about five conventions in about the last twelve years or so. The main reason I go to them is to meet new people  and to see the cars and maybe find a few parts. I usually get in the day before the start, by the time I get to bed after talking with people and trying to find a place to eat(wife has had stomache removed because of ulcers)she can't eat fast food,so it get a little involved finding food.Point being,of the five conventions, by the time I get up do the daily routine, find breakfast and get out and about. The  car displays are about over and every one is leaving the display area. Can't find anyone around to ask " what is that ?" What did those seats come out of?"stuff likr that.

 Besides, I thought the purpose of the displays was to expose the cars to the  public. Not going to get a very big turn out in the morning on a week day .Most people work till after 2:30pm. By the time they get there the cars are gone as well as the owners are off doing meetings and socializing.I've checked at the conventions ,met very few non club members during the day, most general public show up after 2:00. Well guess I'll get down off my soap box now.
