The zone meet was held at Spirit Mountain Lodge and Casino in Grand Ronde, Oregon last September (in memory of Rodger Eddy). And the event seemed to be quite a success based on attendee comments. In respect to attendance, we had: 71 registrations with 110 people at the Friday night social, 119 at the Saturday night banquet, 61 on the Sunday train ride, 10 swap meet stalls, and 48 vehicles for the show.
