Re: [AGA-mcm]aga/aca/convention issues
Yes at every national event in fish or even dog shows
for that matter that I have attended works like Kathy
mentioned.
The host club as part of their representing the
national organization provides a table. It is
typically manned by the national club members but is
given a premium placement ie. rigt next to convention
registration table to ensure everyone who attends the
conference sees it.
This is where books, back issues of magazines ie TAG,
and T-shirts, etc are sold. There is also a membership
person there to sign folks up or at least educate them
on what the national organiztion does and what
benefits membership provides.
Regards,
Larry
