I came to Eugene for a week. That was a month ago, so it looks like I'll still be here. That's at the fairgrounds, right?
It'll be good to put a face with some of you.

Dale, I have been waiting for the last two weeks for you to start this thread. I will be there bright and early in the AM of Friday the 6th. I am looking forward to seeing the members I met back in 2016 and meeting new ones.

Mike, I am assuming you will have a sales table? Do you know the table number yet? More importantly, will you be bringing any Keen Kutters? Looking forward to meeting you.
Ray, will you be at the same table location you were at in 2016?

It would be great to have dinner again, I'm just not sure where we could do something like that. The rest when we met in last year is gone.
We may have to put something together on the fly when we get there.

It appears Ray has beat is to Eugene already and says he can get reservations at the Valley River in for dinner Saturday evening.
My understanding is the food is okay but it's a little higher price than some places.

If anyone is interested in getting together with other AAPK members on Saturday evening, please let us know so Ray has a headcount.

If we do this my wife Alyson and I will be there, so here is the start of your count Ray:
