The Show Was a Huge Hit!

David Reis, Trade Show Manager,
reports that the 10th SouthWest
Leather Workers Trade Show in
Wickenburg, Arizona was a huge
success. In total, over 700 people
were involved. Leatherworkers
came from far and near.  He
expresses his sincere thanks to
the instructors, students, visitors,
facility director and most of all the
exhibitors who make it possible.  
Dave says, “This show keeps
picking up more and more
momentum. It is so thrilling to see
more and more folks learn more
about leatherwork, get the supplies
they need for their benches and
shops, make new connections and
most of all celebrate our special
industry with pride. Needless to
say, it is with pleasure that
The
Journal
serves our people with
vigor, rigor and urgency. And let’s
not forget all the after parties!” Be
sure to mark your calendar for next
year’s show dates:  Feb 17–19,
2011, Thursday & Friday 9 to 5 and
Saturday 9 to 3. FREE Admission

17th Rocky Mountain Leather Trade Show
Gets Balanced Blend of Workshops and
Another Great World Leather Debut
Trade show manager Dave Reis and staff
are working hard to create a balanced
blend of workshops for this key industry
show. Cutting to the chase, the workshops
should not take up the entire weekend. The
folks need quality time with the exhibitors.
At the same time it is necessary to have
workshops to get folks excited about their
work, motivated to discover more
techniques and to be better-qualified
buyers when making purchases at the
exhibitor booths. Dave says
enthusiastically, “I think we have hit that
balance, that sweet spot if you will, with the
workshop line-up at Sheridan, home of the
Rocky Mountain Leather Trade Show.”  The
show dates are May 21 – 23, 2010, with
workshops starting as early as Monday, May
17, 2010. Admission to the show is FREE
while workshops carry their respective
fees; online registration will be available at
www.leathercraftersjournal.com.

Along with this blend of brisk activity is the
9th World Leather Debut. It is picking up
momentum by the day. To date there are 30
companies sponsoring a total of $6750.00 in
prize money. (The list of sponsors is posted
in The Leather Crafters & Saddlers Journal
magazine.). There are 13 categories to
enter along with a special youth category.
Anybody can enter. Kindly remember: be
sure to register your entry by May 6th, 2010,
to enter your leatherwork in this contest.
