Faust
(look him up on Picklehead.com
(we are listed on his
website as BSP National Convention, guess he doesn't realize it's a
state
convention,but he probably doesn't know the difference)
Thank you so much for inquiring about
the
convention. We are so excited and have put in some long hours
already
planning for it. Can't wait to meet you, so please introduce
yourself to
me at the convention.
Looking forward to seeing everyone. We
have so
many new motels in town and the Lea County Event Center will
easily
accommodate over 1000 on the arena floor, which is where we will
hold all
classes and meals on Saturday and possibly Sunday Brunch. We are
planning
for our men/spouses as well, with hopes that we'll start seeing
them again
at some of the conventions. Please encourage your guys to come.
They will
enjoy Wayne Faust as much as we will and we will have some fun
stuff for
them to do.
Write again anytime or if you have any
more
questions.
