Convention 2014 Logo

Convention

Why go to convention? The photos will show the many reasons. Lots of smiles, laughs, contests, educational presentations, friendly people and shakers (of course). While there’s lots of fun there’s also serious shaker sales, trades, and auctions. It takes your shaker collecting to a whole new level!

Shakers are Everywhere

The star of the show is shakers. They are everywhere….in the hotel guest rooms for sale/trade, at the auction, talked about in the presentations, and in all of the contests (including the costume contest!).

Lots of Shakers for Sale in Guest Rooms

Volunteers

There wouldn’t be a convention if it wasn’t for the volunteers. A big THANK YOU to all of them. Here are just a few who volunteered their time to make sure everyone had a good time at convention.
