CHA information?

[tracylynn00]

Hello everyone! I'm interested in attending CHA this summer. The website is confusing to me, so I'm turning to my dear SCS! LOL

Am I "allowed" to go? I'm not a member and not affiliated with any of the companies. I'd like to go! How much does it cost? I need any and all information, please!

Thank you!!

There was talk last fall about a consumer vendor faire at the end of the conference possibly being open to the public but after going out to the CHA website, I saw no mention of that now. You have to be a member or a guest of a member to go to the conference.

To go to CHA you need to be a member, or go with your LSS. There is a vendor faire on the Friday/Saturday after CHA. This will mainly be stores set up (to my understanding). If manufacturers are set up, they aren't allowed to sell anything. SO you are allowed to go to that (don't know about costs).

The CHA trade show is July 28-30, 2009, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, and is a wholesale show for trade only. The consumer show, called the CHA Craft SuperShow, is immediately following that, July 31 and August 1.

The CHA website doesn't have much info about the consumer show.

When you click for more information on the SuperShow ad on the home page, that only loads the exhibitor application.

This site has some other related links, but information on the consumer show is scarce.
