Expo Display Rods
Posted by: Tom Kirkman (Moderator)

At this year's Expo I am going to have 2 very large, tall, interior lit, glass front display cases in the Atrium. These will be used for any and all rods which builders may wish to put on display for the public. The cases will be locked, thus they are secure from prying hands. All rods will be tagged with the owner's name and in order to retrieve it some form of valid ID will have to be shown. I want folks to feel that their rods can be displayed in a safe and secure environment.

If you choose to bring rods for display, you can walk them over on Friday or bring them with you on Saturday. Those who put rods on display will each be given a small gift for their generosity in supplying rods for the display.

There are always a good number of rods on display in the exhibit hall, but this year I wanted to do something special out in the Atrium in an environment where the rods can be properly showcased to the public.

You do not need to preregister nor buy tickets prior to arriving. You can get an admission ticket the morning the event opens.

Tom,
How tall are these cases? I have a couple of surf rods that would not mind having diplayed - 11' and 10'. They are not anything fancy like I am sure some will have but are functional and built to catch fish. Also, assume that we do not want the reels and line on them? Have reels on them now - actually ready to take to the surf right now - but can pull off very easily. Just let me know.

Thanks,
Eddie

The cases are 10" tall. But we could probably put some longer surf rods in one on an angle, across the front or back. I'd just as soon not any reels - less to deal with and keep up with.
