This is the other half of the CEO (laurie) of our livelyhood, Andy Goretski. I just wanted to update everyone on the progress here in beautiful Tomahawk, WI. The red carpet is being layed out by the town folks; support has been overwhelming anyplace we have asked for sponsors. This is not unusual for Tomahawk considering a large portion of the life of the town is generated by visitors. At the recent meet in Atlanta, Illinois, and throughout our travels we have been amazed at how many people have visited our town or have relatives & friends here. Tomahawk is a Mecca for outdoor activities and a destination marked by roads less traveled where you can still see wolves, bear, deer, and many other wilderness critters! Some of our registered guests will be enjoying the awsome fishing and lots of golfing! We are extremely proud of Tomahawk, and we know that the accomodations, the local people, and the meet facility are perfect for this function; As we are excited to be introducing our extended graphic family to Tomahawk! The Signcrafters Rendezvous is going to be headquartered at Sara Park, an ice arena and banquet hall surrounded by the Wisconsin River, a beach, boat landing, sand volleyball court, ball diamonds, soccer fields and kids playground. No limitations have been set regarding food and live music! We have hired a Professor of Culinary Arts, with 1000 pig roasts to his credit to feed us all! The next night (Friday) is the casual banquet at the Inshalla Country Club,(there Dennis Gerathy will give his "Missing Ingredient" speech. Also that Evening Our local Occupational Health Pro's will assure us we are kinda skewed(as Artist)and perhaps enlighten us on how to keep'er on the rails! Now the Tunes, everyone loves the Blues and we will hear it LIVE, Nightly! Vendors have been very gracious in registering, and look forward to attending. You may have met some of them, seeing how their companies have supported us all through the years. We will be celebrating with the representatives that truly are LETTERHEADS and we certainly enjoy their comraderie. Please see a list of the vendors and projects planned on www.signcraftersrendezvous.info. We are counting the days to when we will meet again and share the intangible bond we call "LETTERHEADS".
