The MWTCA just had a meet here in GA. I was very dissapointed to find they were done by 10:00am saturday when I arrived:confused: ! The event was supposed to be 3 days, fri.,sat. and sun.. I drove almost 2 hours one way just to get there. Not to mention there really aren't too many things like it down here. Needless to say I was extremely dissapointed. When I asked one of the gentlemen loading his truck why it had ended he said everyone got there early(thu) and everyone was tired by now(sat. 10:00am)!!!!He said try next year?

Does any one know if non members of the MWTCA are allowed to go? It is only about an hour away and I don't have anything to do any way but it would be really disapointing to not get let in because I am not a member.

Emery Goad, the host, has kept this show open to the public for several years. It's a great one day show. I didn't go last year because of snow. The forecast for Saturday is for a high of 37 degrees and a 50% chance of rain--good enough for me.

Zahid and Joe (and any others) sorry I didnt post sooner about the meet. I have been in Biloxi MS on a job for the past 3 weeks and it slipped my mind. I will try to post events sooner I just didnt have my calendar in front of me. The show is open to the public for and admission is $7.
