Mike G Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I will volunteer. If the NW chapter is going to do a seminar again this year, it is a good place to plug that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forrest Miller Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 Why did they cancel the Woodstock show? Lack of attendance? I felt like the Bob Clouser talk was highly under-attended... That auditorium should have been packed! -Forrest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rich mc Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 seems like the Woodstock show got greedy by raising rates for venders, and entry for the public= poor attendance rich mc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Ferguson Posted November 17, 2013 Report Share Posted November 17, 2013 Outdoor shows have a difficult time making money. Costs are high, income and profit comes from the fees that vendors and attendees pay. When they charge what they have to to make ends meet, they look greedy. Look at the number of different owners that the Chicago shows have had and none of them could not turn a profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat M Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 I live in Mchenry County and the local paper had an article on the show about a month afterwards. The Woodstock Rotary Club sponsored it. According to the newspaper the club thought it was too much work for their limited membership to continue and this was their reason for discontinuing.
