Way to go Jill, I'll be after some other folks to help out in the dimensional/carving area and I'm hoping to get a sponsor, $ and product. Do we have an info sheet that we can get out ot sponsors? How much to sign up etc. A solicitation in Jan or Feb would be good timing. I'm going to Signworld in about a week, any chance of getting some info to hand out, or an on line info page and registration? Best of luck kido. Happy to help in any way! Makin Chips and Havin Fun! Joe

Hey Dave! Thanks for the pic of me in Sign Builders. Wow, my face right now is as pink as my hair was then! I really don't feel I'm talented enuff to have my work in a mag, but I'm glad you do! Like Debbie sez, the meet's August 22-24 of next year. Brochures w/cost, a map, camping & hotel info, & seminar stuff should be going out with the next issue of AMAL. I would plan on coming out a few days earlier if anyone wants to take in the sights of Pittsburgh and the local region. Another project update: CAM BORTZ & BOB ROCHON plan to collaborate on some glass-gilding on the exterior train station windows. Thanks, guys! Well, I'm off for now, gotta work on some signs for Mars' Living Nativity. TTFN love- JILL
