    Didn't find it, had about $140 in it, but I gotta tell you, I would have traded it straight across for that brush.

    No worries. You win some, you lose some. If it helps whoever ended up with it quit smoking, it was worth losing it. :)

    If it's ok with you, just hold on to it until next years event. That way you have another reason to make it :)

    Got a copy of the pics that a fellow attendee took. I will have more from the actual photographer in a few days.

    I would have enjoyed going. Too bad it was on the other end of the country from me.

    I was surprised when this person

    Foreground, far left, won himself a spot in front of the raffle table. I remember thinking, "well, at least he'll have a nice brush when he's old enough to start shaving." :)

    He might have been the youngest one there, but there was a lot more gender equality represented than I expected.

    As if I needed more proof that wetshaving is becoming mainstream. :D

    I'm sure his dad will be more than happy to show him the ropes :). I was also pleasantly surprised at the number of women who showed up. Some where obviously just accompanying their husbands, but quite a few were fairly knowledgeable and having a good time.

    Excellent show Matt! I don't think there was a bad product there. Venders did an excellent job showcasing their products. I know I'll be buying more from WSP and Captain's Choice.

    Look like a great venue and a really well organized event.
    San Francisco 2016? :D

    I was thinking Oklahoma City 2016....

    (I'm moving in a month. I am glad I decided to brave downtown Seattle this year)

    Well, I guess looking at our member's map...the west coast might not be the most logical place if you go by wet-shaving-density :)

    Oh wow... There was still a darn nice turnout this time... I do think we'll need a different venue next year though.

    I'm afraid Montana might not be in the running :)

    I vote for Asheville, NC its a popular tourist spot with plenty of hotels a local airport and its nearly halfway up the coast so a great many wetshavers should be able to make it. Its also surrounded by beautiful country with the parkway running through the best bits. By next year I hope I'm not living here so its not just to make it easy for me to go.

    I would really like to see a few regional meets. I think they have a much better chance of getting off of the ground and becoming a long running event. If and when that happens I could see the possibility of a "national" meet up.
