Re: [QUAD-L] abilities expo

[wheelchair]

If you attend the show last year in September, it was like a funeral.  Less than 100 exhibitors and mostly government agencies and non-for-profit groups.  Even Social Security Ad, had a booth, but didn't show up.  It was probably the worst Midwest Show ever.   On the other hand, the Parade is getting bigger each year.   W               In a message dated 3/2/2006 4:16:00 PM Central Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Did the abilities expo bail out in favor of a Michigan site or did the Rosemont no longer want to make a weekend available?  I say we should find out and raise hell with somebody.   Parade?  Does that give me access to hundreds of vendors of disability product?  Not to mention the seminars.  What else goes on besides rolling along a parade route?  Eric
