Congradulations!  We here in St. Louis just finished our 1st GATS with 3 more
shows planned for this year.  Here is a link to pix of our 'modest' 8' x 12'
Layout.  We are planning to attend the March GATS in Collinsville, Ill. with an
expanded 12' x 12' Layout.  We are less than a year old, but trying.
