I've been speaking to a few people this week.
It looks like everything is falling into place. A lot of hard work goes into these. But, it's all worth it.

Has the convention ever been in the Los Angeles area?

Convention in Los Angeles
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Indeed, the Convention was in Los Angeles in 2005 and it was awesome with two very large and varied collections exhibited. Though each collection was quite varied, one collection displayed an essentially complete array of Electrolux documenting its first half-century in the U.S. (1924-1974). </span>

Charles,
All of the names are in the book. That book is currently on its way to the convention.I am adding Glenn Deinst, (loved by all... died prematurely, and Clay Floyd, a former member of The VCCC, (there has only ever been one VCCC,) I never met Clay, but, being that he was a member at one time, he deserves a page in our book. I'll get that list posted after we return. If there are any whom I missed, I'll gladly add them to the book.

The excitement builds for another gathering! I’m looking forward to all the pictures (though I’m absolutely the worst at actually taking them, I just get so caugh up in everything that I just can’t keep my mind on one thing long enough to do that) and videos. Wish I could be there too!

What time Thursday does the festivities begin?
There will be a paper for everyone. But, usually around
4-4:30, I believe.

Paper? We aren't staying at the hotel. We are driving our motorhome up. Staying at a campground a couple miles away.
Paper, meaning a schedule of events.
Members start registering in the late afternoon. I think it all "begins" at 4. Just come to hotel around then, or even a little earlier. Will be great to see you.

Welcome to the VCCC Convention
Dear Convention Attendees
Brett and I will be welcoming guests beginning at 4pm at the convention hotel, be sure look for the signs to direct you. There will be a welcome brochure/map, as well as 'what to do and who to see' information available.
Be sure to bring an empty suitcase, duffle bag, or steamer trunk to bring home all the great machines and parts that are looking for new 'forever' homes. I brought two empty suitcases and am planning a trip to FedEx or two to help facilitate the movement of such items.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in the next day or two,
Sean

iT'S BEEN GOING GREAT!
After a horrible trip. long story, lost my luggage. It went to Newark, I didn't .Suitcase finally arrivewd here.
We went to an "AUTHORIZE3D HYOOVER DEALER", a Kirby Center, of course, Harold's (Marc's store). We're finding wonderful things. Several trips to UPD/FED EX....
The area is beautiful. We held a few elcetions, had our meeting, dinners at some really nice locations, cleaning contests, etc. It's a shame that some other members are missing here this year.
Tonight, dinner (private area) at a casino. Then, back to the hotel for awards, etc.....
This all goes by so quickly. Dave Olsen is here!!! What a surprise. We also have a new member here. We'll give more details later.
Just doing a quick 'check in' here.
As always, a great time is being had by all.
