9th Annual Autumn Leaf Slide Show - Post Show Thanks!!

Well this year is a wrap - what a great show this year - a big thank you goes out to the production staff of AL including Steve Eshom, Dale Skyllingstad and Paul Petersen. If it werent for their help this show wouldnt go on. Also thanks need to go out to our roadies on Saturday; Reed Skyllingstad, David Honan, Cortney Kinkead, and Gregory L Weirich.

Dale brought an amazing projector and sound system for the event that raised the bar from previous shows. Paul brought in his projector calibrator that had the shows "dialed in" for color reproduction. One attendee who is a veteran of alot of slideshows over the years stated the projection was better than he had ever seen.

I want to thank all of the presenters for bringing such powerful and fantastic shows this year - I know the time committment involved in putting together these shows and appreciate what each person has done to present their shows.

Attendance this year was right around 70 which is what we had anticipated. I also want to thank our attendees and presenters that came in from outside the Pacific Northwest. Its always great to see our Canadian brothers each year. Flying in from afar included California, New Mexico, Texas and Florida!

As for the venue, the Fox Theater is a fantastic location in which we will look forward to making home for the future shows. We are already working on some great new things for 2012 -

The 10th Annual Autumn Leaf Slide Show will be on Saturday, October 27th, 2012!
