We spoke with alot of people at the Miami, Daytona and Lakeland show that are attending this show. Seems like a great lad back time with for the family. Nice location with shade and right off I-95.

Pre-register, if you can I know how hard it is for them to get the right amount of t-shirts for the goodie bags.
I think its a good idea their trying to raise money for the Troops to drop cartons through the Veterans Administration, we've got one over there and they like the idea that we think about them, its a lonley job.

Hope they do well, their talking about another show for buses and Things later this year if all goes well.
