| Table Top Display - March 1st 2025 - Forest City, IA | |

| I will combine this with the 2025 online Global Power Up again | |
| this year. There is a hotel next door to the showgrounds, would | |
| be great to have a few forum members there again! | |

| Are tables and chairs provided for exhibitors, or do we need to | |
| bring our own? I would need about 6' - 8' of space. | |

| Yes, tables and chairs are available (the ones shown in my video | |
| above and plenty more available if needed). There is no | |
| permanent air supply like at some shows, but air can be brought | |
| over from the neighboring shop. I know one guy brought an air | |
| compressor last year. Not sure, but I believe you are more gas | |
| engines? Can�t guarantee a huge crowd of visitors, I know they | |
| are advertising it better in the area this year, but it was a | |
| fun get-together to run engines with friends. If anyone is | |
| bringing electric heated steam engines, I would recommend an | |
| extension cord. | |

| OK, sounds good. Yes, I mostly have IC engines and I don't | |
| expect to need air. | |

| I can�t recommend one over the other as I haven�t stayed at | |
| either one� The Forest City Inn�s parking lot touches the | |
| showgrounds. The Cobblestone Inn & Suites is 5 minutes or less | |
| away and is a lot newer/bigger. The show hours say till 4:30 on | |
| Saturday, but many of us stayed quite late Saturday evening and | |
| ordered pizza and had fun steaming engines. | |
