CCA Seminars - anyone going?

Just wondering if anyone here plans on going to the CCA seminars next month (Sept 19-21).

I have an opportunity to go, but it's a long trip for me. It's also an area that I've never been to before.

Hi Mitchell,
For I forget, a fantastic job on the chess set, just the kind of guys and gals I like! Congratulations! The carving and painting of the set looks great and I only hope mine will come out half as good. I will be attending the CCA Seminars as I have for the last 5 or 6 years. I always learn something, the host club has an excellent facility and are all great folks. I usually stay in Kokomo. IN as the hotels there seem nicer than the ones in Marion. This past July I stayed in a Super 8, and if I can get in, plan to stay there again. The classes are fun, the lunches the club provides are good. If ya haven't been to the classes before might be worth the trip! Hope to see ya!

THanks Jim OH!

If you have any questions about the chess set, let me know. It was hard to get all the steps in within a limited space. I may give a tutorial on the other pieces at a later date...it just means that I will have to carve them again. Hope I remember how myself!

I will check around about the arrangements - thanks for the tips.
Mitch
