Maggard's 2018 meet up.

Planning to go. Anyone else going?

Barrister and Mann will be there.

I wish I could go. I actually bought a ticket and had to have it refunded because we're going on a camping trip that I forgot about that weekend (oops!). It's usually the 2nd weekend in May but they moved it back this year. I've gone the last 2 years and had a blast. Be prepared to do a lot of waiting though unless you just bully your way through the crowd. The place got packed last year! I would also suggest bringing a small container with some coffee beans in it to clear your nose between sniffing soaps, lol. After a while you get nose fatigue and everything starts to smell the same!

It would be awesome to attend. I'm sure Will would love to meet me. But I have business planned elsewhere. Have fun gents.

I would love to go as that there would be braggin' rights. Unfortunately, no time & even less spare $$ for such events.

Jeff - thanks for the advice.

Will - I look forward to meeting you and talking about soap. FYI, I will most likely recognize you as I have seen some of your videos. To help you recognize me, i will be the one with the fresh shave.

Thanks for clearing that up.

I won't be able to make the meet-up.  However, I shall be visiting friends in Toledo in October and it's only about a forty minute drive to Adrian so I'm hoping to get my first peek at Maggard, though I have used their on-line shop.  I was only in Adrian once, in 1967, and remember nothing about it.  I was there because my college roommate was on the basketball team and we were playing Adrian College.  Who knew that more than 50 years later I'd be returning for a completely different reason.

Do it Freddy! You won't be disappointed. It's truly a wetshaver's paradise!

Jeff, the only thing to stop me is if my friend won't drive me there, as I won't have a car.  However, he promised me he would so I'm looking forward to the experience.
