Is the banquet just for those who won the awards?
Is it open to the public or just to ABS members?

Thanks for posting this Dan and thanks for all the time you spend on the ABS in so many ways.
I am looking forward to seeing everyone at the show and will have the Banquet tickets at the ABS table. It is always a great time at the show and a great time at the Awards Banquet. The tickets are available on the Website under Store, then under Event Registration. Please feel free to give me a call if you want to make your reservation directly through me, you can pre pay or pay at the show, but it will be very helpful if you do this early so we know how many to plan for. I appreciate you getting your reservations in as early as possible and want to thank you in advance. Dan has kindly listed all my contact information, but again, my email is cindy@americanbladesmith.com and phone is 419-832-0400.
Also, if there is anything anyone would like from the store and you want to save on the shipping, let me know and I will have it for you at the show. The American made solid black hats are finally back in stock, as well as the other hats, shirts, jacket and pins. We have Handles and Guards books and many others. We have a good supply of all the educational DVDs, too. I will have all the DVDs we stock at the show, but if there is anything you want for sure, I will have it set back for you.
Thank you and we will see you at the show.
