"TELECOMMUNICATIONS FAIR July 14, 2012"

[teka-bb]

The Stage is set for the LARGEST Vintage Telecommunications Show in the United States, and possibly the world!

July 13th & 14th 2012, in Lansing, Michigan at the Causeway Bay Hotel and Convention Center!  

Mark your calendars now for the event-of-the-century.

The Michigan Antique Radio Club (MARC) has sent an open invitation to ALL vintage telephone collectors and aficionados to join them for their famous EXTRAVAGANZA July 12th - 14th, 2012 in Lansing, Michigan.
This event will easily be the largest Antique & Vintage Telecommunications event of the 21st century, encompassing literally hundreds and hundreds of radio and telephony collectors from the world over.

You can read more about this annual event at MARC's website: http://michiganantiqueradio.org/?q=content/extravaganza
Antique radios and telephones, a natural technological match! This event draws over 1,000 attendees annually, and July 2011 was no exception!  Coupling with their event in Lansing, a telephone show will have more walk-through traffic than has ever been seen!

With MARC beginning their festivities on Thursday, July 12th, our portion of the 15,000 sq. ft. ballroom will be available for set-up by the many telephone collectors sure to attend.
This extra day will provide an additional day for set-up of those working displays that often require extensive lead-times to complete.

Rooms will be a reasonable $89.00/nt, and with the hotel's recent multi-million dollar remodeling, they now feature flat-panel TVs and WI-FI in every room, along with a fine restaurant and large bar and grille for relaxing and meeting friends.

Registration will be $25.00 for this very special event, which provides entry to both the Radio and Telephone expositions.
Table rental for both events will be $15.00 per 8' table. As an added bonus, you may also elect to set-up at MARC's huge outdoor flea market.
Rates are $35.00 for an outdoor space, or $45.00 for a space under the "Big Top Tent", which includes 1 – 8' table and chair.

For more information or advance registration, contact Ray Kotke at kleenax@gmail.com or call 517-230-6730.
All telephone collectors of the world are included in this open invitation.

Tables will be assigned in advance, and preference will be given to all advance registrants.

Just so I know - is the $25 for entry into the show; or registration as a vendor?

Thanks
Jim

I should probably answer this question since I will be the host of this show in July. The $25 is your registration fee that entitles you to attend all of the events and shows. It is for entry into the show and registration since I think that those 2 terms are synonymous, right? Everyone will be required to register, as it is required for attendance.

The last I heard, Ray still has table space available for 2014. Contact him if interested.

Is anyone in the group planning to attend?
