Questions about WPPI Convention 2008

[Maui Kim]

I was wondering about the WPPI 2008..i found the dates and the place but I can't seem to find much about the cost. I wasn't sure if this was appropriate to ask on a public forum so if it isn't just let me know. I really want to attend but am trying to calculate the costs..does it cost to get into the actual trade show? and then per class/seminar? Two of us may be going..do you pay per person? How many of you have gone or are going next year? Is it worth the costs Thanks...any advice is greatly appriciated.

I also would like to know the answer to this question as I have been looking and have been unable to find costs as well.

If someone knows but does not want to post it in the public forum, maybe they could PM the info to those of us who are interested.

I think it is early in the game for them to list and have it all together...

I keep watching the web site and I am sure it will be posted here when an update happens...

Yes it is a little early..but has anyone attended in the past and possibly know the average cost?

This may or may not be helpful to you, but I am going to the DWF convention, which coincides with the WPPI show in Tampa next January. My understanding is that the DWF convention is going to be about $500, an include a pass for the WPPI also. Details will be announced within a few weeks, I'm told.

Thanks for that info...:)

The DWF convention in Tampa Bay coincides with the PPA ImagingUSA conference and trade show, not WPPI. There were too many complaints from pros that the convention in Vegas was held during the busy season, so Jeff decided to try an alternate location in January, the slowest month.

Liza,
Oops, that's right, I'm sorry, I was getting my abbreviations confused for a minute there. Yikes!

Im really curious to see how much it costs also since I may be going with Maui Kim :) How fun would that be? So if anyone had gone last year, an average cost would be awesome, thanks!!! It's probably a little more than last year but just so we can get a ball park figure. Anyone else going?
