    Who's going?

    Be sure to stop by the Bowtech Booth and visit with Greg/MO, buckeye, Bowtech/shooter, MeanV2 and myself. You can actually shoot all of the new bows at the show.

    I know Christine will be working the IL bowfishing booth most likely with carpsniper. And she is collecting old magazines and dvds to send to the troops in Iraq, so bring those and donate em.

    The WKP boys will also have a booth, and I think fergus is helping them out.

    Justin said he will be there.

    I know there will be many more from the forums to meet and visit with. Maybe we can setup a meeting place to get everyone together.

    At this time it looks like I'll be there Sunday, but Saturday is still a possibility. When is everyone else headed down?

    If I am coming, it will be on Saturday. It is still up in the air as I am suppose to be watching my two rugrats while my wife is out of town. If I can reel in grandma as a babysitter, I am GOLDEN!

    A little get together would be great. I will be arriving Friday afternoon. I think Isaiah is trying to come down Sunday.

    I am planning on being there Sunday but that is still up in the air. The daughter broke her arm Monday evening so I'll have to see how she's doing.....But right now I plan to be there Sunday morning.

    Have to see how busy the booth is. But that would be :cool: . The food there isn't all that great for what they charge for it.:whip:

    There's a Bob Evans and a Steak N' Shake just up the road from the convention center. Those are always possibilities.

    Ya but I heard that the two of you are bringing your wives so you won't get to see anything good. You are going to be hanging out in the She Safari booth all day!

    We will probably have some women in our booth with us. Think some of the Droptine Diva's will be at the show.

    And I have seen the She Safari booth and that definetly wouldn't be the worst place to hang out all day. A few of them are HOT!!

    I was figuring your wife and kid would hang with all of us and you can fend for yourself all weekend! Especially if you will be wearing the hat!

    If your wife and kids aren't really interested in being at the show there's plenty of things to do in Bloomington.
