Think what you guys might of AGA management, we refuse to spring that kind of !*&@$ on everyone. Scott, Rick, Larry and the gang spent a lot of time negotiating a good deal on the hotel. The registration fee is also quite reasonable -- $49 for the first 50 people, then $59 after that. Since the board began taking a more active role in the conventions (starting with 2003), it has been an important goal that these be affordable, and GWAPA has made this succeed for the 2nd year in a row. - Erik PS: Registrations will be up real soon now on the website. Look for the umpteenth convention announcement after we finish getting a few details ironyd out. -- Erik Olson erik at thekrib dot com ------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please send mail to majordomo@thekrib.com with "Unsubscribe aga-member" in the body of the message.
