We're still in the early stages. I have every reason to believe the 2010 event will be the largest in history.

I will be working closely with Jim Upton in the next 30 days or so to nail down the seminar presenters. We hope to have a good preliminary seminar list by the end of August.

You have more than "something" - you have the world's largest custom rod building event, period.

The 2010 event will be the largest in history. Let's concentrate on that for now and worry about 2011 the next year.

I was refering to not knowing what was in store for 2011, not that we just have something. The 2009 show was my first and I couldnt possibly soak up all the knowledge there since I only had 2 rods under my belt, but should be able to draw much more in 2010. I am really looking foward to it.
