asilentbob Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Surprised no one posted this yet. http://pgi.org/convention/ Who is going? I didn't make much money this year and I had been having a hard time deciding if I would go or not. I decided yesterday that I would definitely go. So renewing membership and registering for the convention now. Not sure if I'll be splitting the cost of an RV on site with a bunch of guys or staying somewhere else yet. What about everyone else?

nater Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 LaPorte is about 2 hours away from my house, I'll be there all week. I will be camping in a tent in the HPA compound. Look me up in the manufacturing area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumbles Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I'm hoping to make it, but really am unsure if I'll be able to swing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WonderBoy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) I'll be there. Staying in Michigan City. If there are enough people going we should have an APC meet and greet sometime. WB Edited July 21, 2012 by WonderBoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marks265 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I'll be there all week too and I'll be staying on site in the camping area with WPAG members. I usually build in the manufacturing areas. I was hoping not to hang out in the manufacturing area this year but maybe I'll travel light and spend sometime there anyway. GAWD I'm already going against my game plan!

nater Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 My game plan has changed several times already too. We will see what happens come August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFeve81 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'd like to go but won't be able to. One I'm not a member yet. And two I definatly don't have the money for it. Too many things on my plate at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 That just sounds scary. Picture something like a Wiley Coyote contraption. Hmmmmmm, rockets on bicycles. Now I have an idea. BTW- was that shooting them from a bike or using them to power the bike... or BOTH? -dag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psyco_1322 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I'll be there, also staying in Michigan City. Passfire is having a gathering, most the people here that's going are also part of Passfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zingy Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 If you observe a tall dude, with long blond hair, wondering aimlessly, in and out of the chemical and supply tent, or building, several times a day, with a big shit grin on his face, there is a good probability, it would be me. I will bring some extra disposable rope, for the Super String. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flying fish Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I'll be there Sunday and Tues-Fri I know some of the ACE guys pretty well so I will probably spend a lot of my time helping with their show. If I get the time I'm hoping to do a little manufacturing. I've been talking about this mint berry crunch shell for years now. It's the power of mint and berry combined with a satisfying crunch! The mint and berry are green and purple, of course, but I'm having trouble figuring out what the crunch is. Is it crackling? Is it timed reports? A bottom shot?

Mumbles Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Might as well use crackle, timed reports, and a bottom shot. Just to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nater Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 I set up in the overflow manufacturing area to the far left when you walk in. So far, all of my rocket motors have worked like I expected, my color headers not so much. The opening shows were spectacular. 2 very different and amazing pyromusicals and a true Heartland style National Anthem. I am proud to be a member of a club with the talent that was displayed.

dagabu Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 The last show of the night was bizarre... Good pyro but a little strange with live actors. -dag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
