E-Scrap 2017 Conference

We can share stories of finds, pictures, whatever lol. I do think its worth a plane ticket and two days of our time. A beach or similar venue, maybe a national park would be a good place to do this. Certainly, again my opinion, would be more valuable than a scrap conference in which half the exhibitors don't even have working websites let alone phone numbers. (I am guilty of a bad website lol).

why doesn't Sir Scrappy host........I don't drink but would get a good laugh at his expense wandering around the sandbar

I am definitely interested in an event like this. Would be great to meet forum members and talk shop.
