Z Scale Convention coming to Medford in 2010

Hey folks,

Some news you may be interested in. Much more will be shared in the coming weeks and months, but for now, take a gander at the news I received.......

Hi all,
After many month of planning, letters went out last week to manufacturers and vendors regarding our efforts in establishing a yearly Z Convention starting in 2010. Ben gave me the ok today to post the particulars:

"Micro-Trains Line will host the first National Z Scale Convention™ in Medford, Oregon on April 30th – May 1st 2010! The convention will have a variety of events including a tour of the Micro-Trains factory, a private trip to Medford’s Railroad Park w/ BBQ dinner, a public show day, clinics, contests and a dinner banquet! More information coming this September."

We have a ton of stuff in the works to make this a fun and interesting visit to the Rogue Valley and a chance to run trains with new and old friends. Management here is working out the long term plans for this Event, and once we get the particulars ironed out, we'll be posting and looking for help.

As I get more information on who will be there and what clinics/contests we will be hosting, I'll post them.
Looking forward to meeting everyone.
Cheers

Rich,
It will be great to have you and Trish a part of the mayhem.
Looking forward to a great time.

I'm afraid that Trish and Karin will run off and go shopping and leave us all alone to face the restless natives. Let's keep their credit cards...
Loren

So true, but do plan on having some fun down that way.
