Hi Nancy - This schedule looks terrific. Again, thanx to you and all contributors for your efforts to make The Gathering so great!

I would really like to attend a workshop on Pop Rivets & FG Repair - what's the best way to sign up?

Also, I see a 'proposed' workshop for adding cabinets to FG trailers - in the ongoing quest for additional storage, I'd sure like to attend that one if it is scheduled.

We are sooooooooooooo looking forward to this event! Regards, Leslie de Beaux
