Kevin, Eric, Garlic Pete, others-

I'd would love to meet as many BB posters as possible while at the Natl. show. It is always good to put a face to a name. Is there already a way to do that or can something be put together to do this? Wearing a name tag with your BB "name" might work.

Maybe here on the BB would be a good place to start by posting that you guys and gals out there plan to attend the show. At least we would know who we can look out for.

Hope to meet as many as I can. Safe travels.

Name tags were suggested at the "Woodland" meet several years ago. It bombed, the only two tags I saw were my own and "Josh".
I will not be there this time.

OM- Sorry to hear you can't make it this year. It would be my pleasure to make your acquaintance.

Garlic Pete- Thanks for replying. Those who do not know you will will benefit. I consider you an "already know you guy" having met you at Bowling Green. You do not discuss if name tags were considered by the show organizers in your post. Is there a problem with it from official quarters since I do not know the status of "bombed"? Since I post here using my real name, this really does not apply to me as anyone wanting to say "hi" can read my tag and do so. However, those who do not use their real names are folks I would like to meet. I'm talking about using the clear plastic pin on tags with a card insert with your "handle" hand lettered on it. No great cost and minimal effort. If I bring them in, can Patrica and Mary distribute them to the attendees?

Let's solve this one way or the other. I'll help any way I can.
