Posted By: <b>Josh Adams</b><p>After seeing the Northwest traders group posting, it made me post this thread. <br /><br />I would like to start a Chicagoland area branch of Net54. I posted a thread about this a year ago, but never did much to get it off the ground. With Sportsfest around the corner, I figure this would be a great time to have our first "meeting" so to speak.<br /><br />If people want to either email me personally, or reply to this thread, I'd love to finally organize a get together. <br /><br /><br />Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you all.<br /><br /><br />Josh<br><br>Go Go White Sox<br />2005 World Series Champions!

Posted By: <b>Andy Baran</b><p>I live in Naperville, and am hoping to attend the show on Friday afternoon. Unfortunately, I am not available on Saturday or Sunday.<br /><br />I don't have anything really to trade, but I'd be happy to get together with anyone who is going to be at the show.<br /><br />I'd also be willing to get together at other times, but it's a little tough for me with 3 kids under 4 years old, including a newborn.

Posted By: <b>Mike Ernst</b><p>Josh--<br />I'm in suburban Milwaukee--and would be interested in future gatherings.<br />Weekends are a bit tough, because I do 5 worship services a weekend and often have 1-3 weddings, but would be very interested in being involved.<br />Back in 1974, when we lived in Central Wisconsin, I hosted George Husby, Jack Urban, Dick Millerd, Ron Greenwood, and we had a great trading/information session. the biggest problem was knowing what to bring for trading purposes. That of course, wasn't limited to vintage stuff (but obviously nothing later that 73).<br />Mike

Posted By: <b>Joe Jones</b><p>I would be interested in meeting as well. I am in Michigan but could justify the trip with shows like the sportsfest.
