This up comping March convention, just around the corner, is relatively close to me here in Lower Missouri. However, I cannot get there until maybe late Wednesday. And....I will be "stag" as I don't think my wife can attend at all.

This will be my first convention, as in my previous ownership years, just could not get away.

Having said all that, is it worth it for me to attend a "partial" convention? Thoughts?

Sure. I only got in 2 full days on the last one but it was close as well, so worth it. Laughs, learning and new ideas to be sparked along with new friendships.

One word of caution, if you go for even one day you will realize how much fun and how much you will learn that in the future you will want to arrange your schedule around GMCMI rallys. You will, as they say, be hooked.

Larry, nobody has mentioned that you're sure to enjoy the ice cream socials
and strawberry shortcake at least a couple of nights. Check out the
schedule and you'll find plenty to help you get hooked. Sandra and Bob

I would rather put Clyde in charge of the ice cream. He can not eat as much of it as you can so we would know there would still be some left for the rest of us.

ABSOLUTELY!

Only problem is you'll only experience "partial" fun! ;-)
