(Fwd) International Convention?

[Allan L. Gilreath, RPT]

John,

The official registration was 1161 and that is the record to date.  With the
help of everyone on the list we can, hopefully, far exceed that number in
Chicago.  Hope to see you all there.

Hi Rob,
I attended the 30th Annual PTG Convention, in Toronto, Ontario
in 1987.
It had, I believe, the record for most attendees. I think the record,
still stands, although, I can't remember the number.
One of the big problems, was Customs. I seem to remember a Customs
agent, in the display hall.
The NE regional has been held in Quebec City and Montreal, and they have
been well attended.
