Notes from the discussion of the Gem Show at the October meeting
    Attendance: 762 – about the same as the 2006 Show.

    Suggested changes for next year:
    Member displays and concessions put in the hallway behind ticket sales.
    Put up temporary curtains due to heat in the afternoon.
    Club to build a dolly to move tables in and out of the building.
