There are only a couple of spots left for Sat the 8th (16 so far). Sat the 15th is booked up (21 builders). BOth Sundays have a lot of space (5 & 4 guys), it looks like there will be a lot more opportunity for 1 on 1 on the Sunday dates, hopefully those interested will jump on that opportunity. The NJ Gathering is up to 14.

Topics - I've been asked to do a really basic overview of the steps to build the rod, the differences between components and epoxies, etc. Decorative Wraps are always a topic at the gatheirngs, I will be doing basic A to Z presentations from layout to finishing, and on teh 15th I will be focusing on more advanced topics since there are a lot of really good builders who are beyond the basics.

If you are interested, let me know. xlrods@yahoo.com.
