2014 Ultimate Sport Show Grand Rapids Volunteer Schedule

[djkimmel]

Hi Dan, I can help Thursday or Friday from 5:30 till close.  Which ever works best for you.  Let me know.

Okay! That helps! I'll add you to the badge and volunteers lists. Thanks!!

I've updated the schedule with the latest contacts I've received from various people.

LGMOUTH I moved your Sunday schedule later by 1 hour. Hope that is okay with you?

I am heading over there in the next hour to setup and will turn in the latest batch of exhibitor volunteer badges for you. Looks like I still need a little help middle of the day on Friday and early Saturday morning, Saturday evening.

For Thursday (thedude) I probably won't make it by 3pm. I found out yesterday that our bill SB 869 to remove the Michigan bass season limitations from state law, is coming up before the state senate Outdoor Recreation and Tourism committee at 12:30pm. I need to testify since the bill is a favor from Senator Hansen and others to help us (hopefully) get a longer bass season through the NRC. I'm told the senate session might run long and there isn't necessarily an order they bring the bills up for testimony. There are 8 bills on the schedule. I'll get to Grand Rapids as soon as I'm can testify and get on the road. I felt a little weird but let them know that I appreciate them taking time from their busy schedule for us but I have a seminar on the Hawg Trough at 5pm I need to make...

Okay - great! Thanks! You squeaked in just under my bedtime for the night. Got you on the list. You should be able to see the private instructions board in a few minutes by refreshing or reloading the forum.

Last change tonight. I'll check again tomorrow morning before the senate committee hearing to see if there are any more changes.

Thank you to every one of you who helped out at the booth! Especially those of you who were flexible when it was needed! There were a number of flexibility opportunities!

It was nice seeing and meeting all the members who stopped by and said hey. We answered lots of questions of a wide variety on many topics - one of the primary reasons we are there! We got a number of new people to take a look at GreatLakesBass.com and/or GreatLakesIceFishing.com (more people than average showed interest in that), and we signed up a few potentially good new members! Always good!

We had a great location near the Hawg Trough. Easy to watch seminars when we weren't talking to people plus seeing how awesome Dan Armitage did with his many kids fishing seminars. He had good to huge crowds every time! That was really great to see!

If you didn't make it down this year I hope you watch for it next year and make a point to come on over!
