Hi Adam and List,
This would be great! We could have the auction and Birthday bash at the
top of the Palms Hotel and Casino!

Subject: [meteorite-list] Tucson Gem/Mineral Show Relocating to Vegas?
Dear List Members,
Wow, I could not believe what I read the Mohave Valley Daily News and
the local
papers today.
It states that the American Gem Trade Association is likely to accept
an offer
from Las Vegas to relocate the entire Gem and Mineral show here in
Nevada after
a run since 1955 in Tucson. The Chief executive, Doug Hucker told the
Tucson
City council, "if we do not see progress on a hotel and upgrading of
the
convention center, we will leave."
Vendors have been complaining for years about the lack of
infrastructure to
support such a show in Tucson and state, it is time to move to a venue
that can
adequately host such an event such as Las Vegas which is at the top of
the list.
It looks like Las Vegas will bend over backwards to get the estimated
$100
million this show pumps into the local economy every year. Las Vegas
could
easily accommodate this event since it is the number one tourist and
convention
destination in the world.
Best Regards,
Adam
