Sounds like fun.

Sorry I'll miss it. Would be great to see clinking members again.

Some people have already headed out to St. Louis

Cleaners are being cleaned, polished, packed, etc. ready for the convention.


 Safe trip, everyone!!


 Be sure to post pics!

I'll see Greg P. from Syracuse today. He's bringing machines, as well as picking up 'one of a kind' cleaners to show off at the VCCC Convention. Ask to see his brand-new 'water vac'.

Sounds like some nice events are planned.

I spoke with Rick in California last night. And, I was in touch with Barb last week. It would have been great to see familiar faces..... I know Luke, his dad, and mom, will be there too. Always fun to be around.

I’ll be there too after work and im taking a half day Friday. The famous red toolbox will be there and several “I’ll get around to it” machines as far back as Wooster that need new homes! If anyone wants to make a side trip to my garage and scavenge for parts, hit me up!

Wish I bought that Convertible at your plCe.... orange metal base, type hood, no light.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

So, now

Share all of the details, including pics!!

 

[kloveland]

Pics will be updated on our official site! They are also in the Facebook vacuum groups. I feel like posting stuff here is counterproductive. Since most collectors have moved to Facebook. We did have a good turn out 45 people with the film crew! Attached are a few pictures that I have.

Thank you for the pics Kenny!

Great Photos Kenny!

I had a great time at my first full convention and second partial.

 

[gottahaveahoove]

Thank, Kenny. Yes

I hope/trust the "post convention" newsletter issue will feature all of the fun events.   I hope I'll be able to attend next year's convention.
