Seminars started today!

The seminars started today, and the expo opened this afternoon... and Dwayne and Patti are two tired puppies! This learning and walking and shopping and participating is exhausting!

The event is being held at the Rawhide Event Center - there is a large building where the vendors are located (it is behind me from where I took this picture), there are lots of coach displays (evidently they end up selling a lot of coaches at these events - we've met multiple folks who have purchased a coach at previous events in our travels), and then there are seminar rooms spread throughout this "village" that is set up like an old west town, as well as two seminar "tents" over near where the expo building is.

This morning, there weren't a lot of people out - we started this morning by attending the early morning exercises - unfortunately, we won't be able to do that on the other mornings as we'll have coffee bar duties.

I shared a "You are here" sign that FMCA had put up on a map... here is another one - but this one just tells you "You are here" - cute, huh?

More people were out this afternoon as we continued to attend seminars. The expo (inside a big building) was so crowded that it was uncomfortable!

One of the sessions I went to was "Mac the Fire Guy"s Fire/Life Safety presentation. We first heard him in October, 2014, when we went to our very first FMCA regional rally in Shreveport, LA, and he about scared me to death! I appreciate his practical recommendations though!

There is a contest going on - 10 questions posted at random locations around the facilities... you have to find the 10 questions and answer them on a card that was in the welcome packet... I found question 3 (and I know the answer to it!)...

I also found question 10, but I don't know the answer to it! I have looked up some information online... and I think I have found the answer... at least, I found where the first "professional" rodeo occurred... would that be the same as the "first rodeo on record"? What does "on record" mean? Like, an LP? (Ha!)

So, I need to find 8 more questions and figure out the answers, and, I think I can enter for a chance to win a guided RV tour to the Calgary Stampede... I hope y'all can figure out the answers and help me out!!!
