Apple Harvest 2002 - BNAPEX 2002

The last issue of TOPICS included a package insert providing complete information on BNAPEX 2002. The next issue will contain an ad highlighting this coming convention. As much of this information as possible is being posted at this web site. The following is extracted from material sent by organizers to the webmaster:

"We think the Spokane Convention Center is a great location for BNAPSers. One of the primary benefits of membership in BNAPS is the opportunity to attend the annual convention including the many educational features as well as enjoy the fellowship of friends with similar collecting interests. Participation makes it all worthwhile.

In looking at the last two shows - Ottawa 2001 and Chicago 2000- attendance from the western provinces as well as the western states has been light. With the Spokane show we have a great opportunity to change that image and hope many of you will help do so and not only attend the show but also take this opportunity to exhibit at the show.

Exhibits could either be in the BNAPS section or the Apple Harvest show. Qualified judges will be on hand and there will be ample time to discuss your exhibit. Too often this is not the case with the benefits of exhibiting not fully realized.

Spokane is located in an ideal area to warrant considering adding vacation time either before or after the show. In this regard I would be pleased to provide specific Information on any area or subject In which you may have an interest. For example, if you are driving in from points east, north or south of Spokane and you have never visited Cody, Wyoming - truly it is a must stop for at least two or more days. [webmaster's comment: you better believe it!] Our Spokane team promises you a great show and convention. We truly hope our timing is one that will let you participate and we look forward to seeing you next September."
