Re: St. Louis October 2010 MEGA WORKSHOP!
The workshop will run contuinuously the entire of the event. All things will be happening simulatneously. The education seminars are not fully set, but they include subjects like, sales, internet, business plans, importing, buying machinery along with some yet to be determined seminars. These seminars should run throughout the day Thursday and Friday. They will vary, from morning to afternoon, by seminar and day, so that over the span of 2 days an individual will be able to attend all of them. I would suggest that both days be attended as the schedule is very full and would provide a lot of benefit to every fabricator.

Re: St. Louis October 2010 MEGA WORKSHOP!
No. There will be no seminars on Saturday so that the presenters (fabricators) will have time to enjoy the rest of the workshop and network and learn themselves.

Kris, stone will be there for enough seam demos to stretch from St Louis to Chicago. That is a lot of top polishing!

Wade at Integra was worried about not having enough stone as well.
There will be uber mounts of stone.

Re: St. Louis October 2010 MEGA WORKSHOP!
Alright guys, there will be lots of stone, I get it
. I've just learned from the past that if I don't plan ahead it can be difficult to get what I need at the last minute.

Is there any actual "agenda" of scheduled events?
If so, could it be posted or added as another flier or announcement?
