shows

[NW Modeling List]

Maybe this discussion can turn into something even better for us internally
as well. Maybe some of us can get together at some of these shows that
we've never gone to. I know there are some big shows out there that I've
always thought would be worth attending, but I never committed to going.

Heaven knows I have enough models. However, I'm always interested in seeing
what's new, and getting together with other people from the society for a
day or two.
