Dan,
I have been putting together the list of presenters and topics. It should be complete within the next couple of weeks. Actually it is complete but there are a couple of presenters that won't know until a couple of weeks before if they are going to be able to make it.
Here is a copy of the flyer I sent out to last years attendee's.
Please contact me if you need anymore information.

2006 SW Washington Rod Building Weekend
Hi everyone, it is time again to begin working on getting the registration going on this year’s rod building weekend. I want to thank all of you that attended last year and made it such an enjoyable time. So far this year there are already almost 20 new people coming from other parts of the US, this mixture of builders should really help to widen the perspective of other techniques and types of rods being built. I am expecting an even larger attendance than last year which at one point on Saturday was 97 persons. It will greatly help to make the arrangements necessary to pull this off if you can get your registration in ASAP. While we will be changing a few things the general schedule will pretty much remain the same.
April 7th, 8th & 9th 2006.
We will have a round table and a demonstration or two on Friday evening beginning at 7:00 PM.
On Saturday the demonstrations will begin at 8:00 AM. We will be breaking around 12:30 for lunch, we will be having a lunch of fish & chips at Frani’s here in Woodland so anyone wishing to attend this please let me know so I can help them plan for it. From 2:00 until 5:30 or 6:00 Demonstrations, then we will be having a fish fry.
On Sunday we will begin demonstrations at 9:00 AM. Again breaking for lunch around 12:30 then resuming for a couple more demonstrations around 2:00 PM.
Janet and I will supply coffee, soda and donuts.
I’ll forward on a completed list of demonstrations and times as soon as I can get it worked out.
We are really looking forward to seeing everyone here.
Todd
