The Fall/Winter Show was a real blast.  It was a sell out show and good times were had by most, if not all.   Many dealers reported that it was one of their best shows.  The Spring/Summer Show is rapidly approaching, so if you haven’t reserved your tables yet, time is   running out.  If you need information on table reservations for the upcoming show, you may e-mail me at: williamprice4@comcast.net.  We really need to have more members stay at the site of our show, the Franklin Marriott @Cool Springs.  By doing this, it will show our support of the hotel and the great facility they provide us with.  The member price for rooms is $79.00 plus tax.  This is very reasonable for a room these days and the cut off date is March 21. 

The 2005 Christmas party was once again a huge success.  Our guest speaker was Donnie Shearer.  Donnie is a newcomer to the TMCA and is a real asset.  Donnie was a USMC combat photographer during the war in Viet Nam and he is also an expert on edged weapons. Donnie’s presentation at the party - 18th century Scottish swords and pistols.  Great job!  See you at the show!
