Expo 2002

[Brickman]

Just for curiousity I was wondering how many others on this site are planning to attend Expo 2002 in July?
I am going to do my best to go, this would be the first year for me. When I lived in KY I never went, now I live a long way away and plan to go. About that time of the summer I know I will need a break.

[Phishook]

Verry intrested in going. Hopefully things will work out this year so I can get away. Things like this should be scheduled in Feb.

But I guess that would eliminate testing the equipment.

Any one know what all is going to be there?

[Brickman]

Yes I agree they should schedule this in the winter. If they had it in like Florida they could still do testing in the winter. Or Arizona.
Check out the web site, tons of info there.

Origanily this expo was not geared twords us, is was for dealers.

So the dates have stayed the same and they have geared it to all buyers

I will be there, and I will be at the Flex-Deck booth most of the time.

Come by and visit Brad, Mrs. Brad, Mrs. LGF, and I

And you all are invited to come by and stay a while or meet at the booths

I wouldnt miss it! I went last year and learned so much and found so many interesting products. (Also looking forward to the SIMA Snow and Ice symposium in St Louis 6/6/02 thru 6/8/02)

I think we all need Lawnsite.com T- Shirts!!!!!

[P&J Lawncare]

I will be there (it will be my first time)

[FrankenScagMachines]

I will be there. Lawnsite.com shirts would be cool. It would be neat if we could all meet somewhere so we can put a name to the face. I'll definately swing by the FD booth to meet the LGF in person! COOL!
Anyone else interested in meeting up sometime there?

I live here in Louisville and will be there for sure. I am pretty new to this site and have only made about 10 posts but I would like to meet and talk to all of you guys.
If anyone has any questions on hotels or resturaunts or anything just let me know.

I'll be there. Get to go North for the summer.

[Barker's Lawn Care]

Yeah i went last year for the first time. I thought it was awsome. I'll be there.:blob3:

[JimK]

Jim at TURF here. We'll be there ... at our booth and at our New Products Showroom.

Last year a bunch of lawnsite warriors used our booth as a meeting spot. Please feel free to do the same this year.

By the way -- I agree ... Louisville in July? Jezzz. But, it is what it is. Hope to see you there.

[Pro-Cut Lawns]

My wife and I went last year, but not this year. Im only 85 miles from Louisville and hate to miss it but I've just got too much work piled up (including the honey do's:cry: )

[dodgeman]

I can't make it to the July Expo but I am thinking of going to the one in November in Nashville.

Is it worth going to? I am new to the business and need to learn as much as possible. I say that they have different "educational sessions". Are these any good?


Thanks

Pete

[JimK]

The GIE show is very much worth going to. They had it in Nashville a few years ago ... it was great! My gang and I will be there.

[dodgeman]

I have been taking alot of advise from this forum and you guys are great on advise on equipment. They say the have on Thursday you can see the equipment and try it. This would be gereat for me because where I live it is to far in between dealers to see al of the neat stuff you can get. (I do love my toys)

Thanks and maybe I'll se you there!!

Got my stuff in the mail today and all ready to go. See you there.

[Brickman]

Update.

I just won Rodney Carrington tickets off the radio for the SAME friday as the expo. So now I have a choice to make. Rodney C. in Cheyenne, or expo in KY. I suppose that I will make the final choice the week of the expo. Since both have not cost me any thing, I can bail on either one and not be out any money.

WHY couldn't they have been one week apart? So that I could do both.

[mark2]

Hey, I don't remember hearing of the show in Nashville. Can anyone tell me more.

Are these shows sim to the GAME in Atlanta.

I'm hoping to find my next mower at $1,200 off. I wish I had bought in Atanta last year.
