Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

2 of the 3 vendors, that I spoke with, who attended the vintage cup said they were disappointed with the attendance.
Regarding the conflict, this year it was the vintagers fubar by double booking. But now Mike has announced his date after the vintage cup has for 2017 and they are on the same weekend again...!
Dont know what is going on here... One time is one thing, but twice???
I would wonder why the Northern isnt looking at dates in late August or something.
I did not look at what the Vintage cup was charging for vendor spaces, but if it is anywhere near their historic $800 for a booth, i will stick with Mike's $200 and Ernie's $350. the little guy just can't justify costs that high to attend these events.

With all due respect John, I've shot Hopkin's course and the course at Rock Mt. is far more interesting. You are correct in that the SxS community is like a big family. But why would someone set up a family reunion at two different sites on the same day separated by 200 miles?
And as far as the PGCA having an organized presence at the vintage cup next year, my vote is to keep our presence at Rock Mt., and I would hope the Smith, Lefever, and Fox organizations do the same. There is no reason for them to leave for a johnny-come-lately.
