This year's Sign Invitational was a little smaller than last year's event but was more fun than ever! Six outstanding entries vied for the most votes. We all won by simply participating and each of us was enriched by the experience as we shared techniques, stories, and friendship. Over the course of the three day show I was privileged to talk to so many people whom I have met through the years. This industry has been kind to me and I am much richer for the experience.

Thanks to all of the sponsors and to each of those who helped make this year's event so successful.

This time around my entry garnered the most votes of the 900 show attendees who filled in a ballot. Thanks! I hear the voting was very close. Now we look forward to next year's show. The exciting and fun process begins anew. Are you up for the challenge??
