The Conclave schedule is now available at the Rod Guild home page. at @#$%&. Here is a partial message on the Guild message board. Quote: "For those of you who want to see the conclave schedule and get an idea of who will be doing what and at what time, you now have that opportunity. Please
go to the home page and click the top left button that says conclave. On the page that pulls up you can click the underlined Conclave Program and behold! there is the whole program." Unquote

It would be nice if they would join the rest of us who pay for the priviledge of promoting our businesses on this board. They sure get a lot of use out of this one.

No hard feelings though. I hope it is a wonderful event.

I have received numerous complaints regarding this. However as many of the sponsors here at Rodbuilding.org will be attending the event, I feel it is in their best interest to have this information provided here. Yes it would be nice if they would help sponsor the board. Perhaps in time they will.

Sometimes I have to walk a tightrope between those who are sponsors here and those who are not. I do not want to "ban" all mention of non-sponsors as it would dry up the exchange of information that this forum is intended to provide. So we do the best we can to protect the interests of those who care enough to sponsor this site while still allowing a decent exchange of information regarding ALL products and services related to rod building.

If I can clear up some things here I may even try to get to the conclave myself, at least for a day or so. George Kalhust and Don Morton have put in a lot of time to make this what well may be the finest rod building event ever held anywhere. Yes it's good for the Guild, but it's also going to be great for rod building in general.
