I'm going and looking forward to great time.
The Totally Turning and other Mini sysmposiums are a wonderful resource for turners.
You should have a great time, I know I will.
I have attended nine AAW Symposiums. I've been to three mini symposiums the first in 1994 and the most recent last January. Both are wonderful experiences. I have found the Mini-sympsoiums to be particularly enjoyable. Compared to the AAW they are smaller, more relaxed, and because of the regional nature participants are likley know or get to know each other quite well.
Happy Turning,
Al
