Default OMVA Show Feb 7th

Start time for dealers is 7 am. Which means of course dealers only from 7 to 7:30 for set-up. Members from 7:30 on. Everyone else 8 am on.

The dealers don't get the "good stuff" from 7 to 7:30. They are busy trying to set up. Along with complaining about "Where's the coffee" (There is none)
All people bringing in parts should cover there tables. Grease and rust are hard to clean off.

Several people have mentioned no one phone and told them about the Show.
Please........phone your pals, both of them, and get them to the show. And check the MLU site now and then.

Peter S

Stewart you never phoned me. Good thing I ran into you at the show.

Great to see so many faces again and talk shop for a few hrs.

Jordan,

I wanted to remind you - but I couldn't find my book - hahaha. With friends like you I don't need anemonies (get it - its a sea creature joke ).

It was good to see so many of the ususal suspects at the show - my hat is off again to Peter and the wonderful job that he does to facilitate our days of fun. Folks that don't belong to the OMVA sure do miss out on the good stuff.

Is it too early to ask who is going to the MVPA convention in Evansville, IN?


Stewart

Default Feb 7th Show update.

In my opinion we had a good Show. Not great maybe, but good.
For your information space rental is $315. It is not covered by table rental.
Should be probably be but isn't. More rentals would solve the problem but
we are now getting Militaria guys showing up which is good.
Dean Owen was there with a dump truck full of treasure.
And...I was pleased to see Brock Jolliffe. An old timer (he doesn't think so)
with some nice items. And Bob Phillips from Kithchener paid us a visit.
If we have a show at Oshawa in May maybe we could swing another Acton Show in late Summer. With a few vehicles this time.
