    Hey Everybody-
    A couple of updates for those who are attending, for those who can only join us for the public show, and for those who can't make it this year. We appreciate you all!
    First- The App is finally approved for both the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. Each attendee has a unique QR code so that their schedule drops into the app directly. Note that one has to scan it from within the app, not through your camera as normal. Also, this will be the only place you can identify Room Sales this year, as the hotel has restricted us from putting up our normal easel listing.
    Second- The Friday night Ice Cream Social has announced the professional entertainment. Its Kenny Banya from the iconic sitcom "Seinfeld" Steve Hytner! full comedy show and Ice Cream Sundaes topped with RR videos FREE for all that are in attendance as registrants or layout participants!
    Third- Fred is reporting the MicroTrains Line and Bluford shops have come through with some great Special Runs. Enough said.
    Fourth and last for now- anyone on the area and not able to be at the convention, we invite to the Train Show on Saturday from 10 to 4. All of the vendors will be there, and the layouts in the hotel are magnificent. I know taking a full weekend off can be tough, so come on up on Saturday and run a train, tell a tale, and have some fun.
    Hopefully, see you there
    George

    Ryan And everyone who attended-

    Thank you for coming and making this a great event for all. The hotel layouts were spectacular, the room sales were amazing fun, the events were cool, and most of all, the people were incredible. It was hard work for the whole team, but it was worth it.

    That said, if you have any suggestions for the crew, PLEASE email me (george@nscaleenthusiast dot com) and I promise we will consider. 29 yers of this has taught us that the best ideas come from the attendees,

    Best-

    George

    Man, seems like the only folks who could like that carpet would be BNSF fans.
