As long as you can throw a frozen rope - you can hit the building from the parking lot...

Unfortunately, the guys at MSBA are legally not allowed to say it until the final contract with the facility is signed. The proposals are all done, the numbers agreed to with the facility, the MSBA has approved that portion - just making it official with the facility. So the work is 93.946% done - but they can't say anything...
And last night - someone asked me if there was a Tent involved - no, there is no TENT

All I can say is that the location is fantastic and you all aready know the place - many have been there - and I have been there with a few of you

But there is a Light at the end of the tunnel.. Jeeze - I hope I didn't shave that info too close....

I'm not saying that it is or it isn't Gillette . However, where there would ordinarily be a fee to park your car at this facility (and if you think about it, almost all larger fishing and boat shows you pay to park) - my understanding is that there will be no parking fee. There never has been for a MSBA Fishing Show, I just don't see a parking fee happening....

But I will say this about the facility:

Don't you just hate a punchlist? Hope it's not just the legal eagles padding the billing hours Whazzup? Is this Tuesday?

or Wednesday?

Guys and Gals,

Yes we are trying to tease up some excitement about the new facility....

No we are not screwing with you by not releasing the formal announcement....Lawyers, Insurance Companies, Sponsors all must ber completed before the Press Release...The legal stuff is done, MSBA has a firm committed deal for the Show...bottom line is that the 2006 MSBA Sport Fishijng EXPO will be held in Foxborough MA on March 25th & 26th. A formal Press release is being scheduled for next week

Sorry if anyone got frustrated with this process...I can tell you that if this years show is a succesws, then we will probably have found a home and will set a firm date for the future, hopefully a few weeks earlier

anyway watcdh for next week's press release

Are your Ready for the EXPO?????
