The Hobby Show in Toronto is just about 6 months away.  This post is intended to
gauge the level of interest that people have in putting on a booth at this
year's show.

As a reminder, the Can-Brick Builders attended last year's show (Nov 2003) and
put on a great display.  In fact, we won the Hobby Booth of the Year award.

For a bit more background (if you weren't there) you may want to check out these
links:

Can-Brick Builders is a group formed exclusively to do The Hobby Show booth.  It
was comprised of a number of rtlToronto members and several other builders from
around SW Ontario.  Membership is free and open to all.  :)

Even though the show is still several months down the road, I'm hoping that we
can begin to get an idea of how many people might be interested in attending the
show this year (Nov 2004) if we were to put on the booth again.  So, all I'm
hoping for at this point is that you either reply to this posting with a simple,
"yes, I'm interested" response, or email me at:



I'm curious to know if someone wants to be part of the display do you need them
to commit to all three days?

Hello Janey,

That's a good question.  Last year that was probably the most common question I
got.  And the answer is 'no' you don't have to commit to all three days.

In fact, for the 2003 show, we had people who attended for just about every
combination of days.  i.e.  Some came on Friday only, some Saturday only, some
Sunday only and of course others were there all three days.

Since the show/booth is entirely volunteer all that is expected is that you come
when you are able and enjoy yourself while you're there.  :)

Here is a link to the Can-Brick Builders FAQ.  Some of the specifics (such as
actual show dates) are still filled in with last year's info, but it will give
you a good understanding of the activity.

I'll try to update it with this year's information soon.  As always, the show is
the first full weekend in November.  So this year the dates are:

November 5, 6, 7 2004

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best regards,
Allan B.

(...) Thanks, that link answered all of my questions and more. You can count this reply as a 'yes' under the 'who is interested category'. Janey "Red Brick" (20 years ago, 16-May-04, to lugnet.events, lugnet.loc.ca.on)
