Contact Dick Ledford [email protected]

Directions: I-77 to exit #138.  Go south on Route 62 for 0.6 miles.  Left onto Parchment Valley Road (across from WVSP barracks) and go 1.6 miles to conference center.

hmmm, I doubt I go (too damn far) but hey, if it does good and they have it again, I may make a trip sometime

Ripley is one part of WV I have never been to.  That part of the state seems like foreign turf to me, one place I've not been

The Winchester Va show is this weekend also.  I know no one will go because it is small.  But its this weekend none the less

See that's what sucks for me over here in the mountains, the only decent show we have is Fairmont, and it's a 1.5hr drive
