I would like to thank all who came to the Big Show in Orlando I really feel it was one of our best ever!!!
The speaker line up of Tim Mathison, Russ Landry, Beni Meier, Glen & Margaret Martin, & Tom Perkins (RTI) provided the attendee's with more ground breaking information since Ron Wallace's "program" presentation in 2007. I would like to thank all the presenters for not holding back & sharing all of this valuable information.
It was also great to see Russ Landry get inducted into the GPC Hall of Fame his tireless efforts to promote this awesome hobby world wide makes him a true HOF congratulations Russ!!!!
We had our first inductee after establishing the Jepson Vine of Honor by placing Greg & Nancy Norlin in this exclusive hall. Their efforts to keep Anamosa Iowa an original GPC weigh-off site going for 25 years is outstanding & a well deserved award for them.
Congratulations to all the winners!!!!
And the big news moving forward the GPC will take the big show in 2015 to Wilkes-Barre PA. at the Gennetti Hotel. The registration fee will start at $95 & the dates will be March 23, 24, 25 2015.
We also unveiled our 2016 seminar site moving across the pond to Lymington UK where Ian & Stuart Paton will be our hosts. The dates have yet to be determined but the registration fee will start at $125, both Big Show registration pages will be up soon on our web site so you can start to make your plans!!!!
Thank you to all who support the GPC!!!! Dave

Why the change to Monday through Wednesday? Looks like a good location though for east coasters.
