I've seen two different listings for this event; There is one for Oct 21st at Bellevue College. There's a second listing for the Rein House in Tacoma on Oct 28th. Neither event has any actual info attached to it.

Does anyone have any input on one or both?

I guess I'll bump this...I can't find anything about this show online. Is it a go? I never got a flier or card at any of the summer shows like I usually do. There are a lot of swap meet vendors that don't facebook, instagram, snapchat, ect. If these shows aren't promoted we'll just stop coming. Not a threat, just the reality of promoting shows through social media. I'd hate this show to go bust...it's a really fun way to end the season!

Thanks Greg! What a strange website, tried to buy 3 tickets, total cost 0.00? Rein Hauser in Tacoma is a restaurant? No details on the page about show/ swap. Not worth the 300plus miles of driving for me if they can't even list details. Think we'll pass on this one. Too bad, I look forward to the Fall Meet.

Start Mikes video at 13:20 to hear what he says about this event.

Thanks for the link, sounds like Bellevue is a bust. Too bad

Yea it is too bad as for me this show was within walking distance and cool to go to as a sort of last show for the year, but hanging out in a cement/open air parking building on a 55 degree day as it rains makes it difficult to want to stay for the entire show.

Last year many people seemed to leave early.

Maybe a shorter VW gathering might be a better fit for the time of year as he said he was going to try.

It isn't on the Rhein Haus calendar. I like the idea of Tacoma as it's closer for me. Smile
I look forward to it too, but it looks like it's not happening????
Bummer about that.
