Ok...with less than 90 days to go, we REALLY need to start a collection for the fan table display....for the past few years our table has pretty much been a dumping ground for weapons and helmets, and its looked rather "not so professional". This year Ive decided to come up with a back wall type of display for us...Since I live here in Atlanta, Ive taken it upon my self to order everything and bring it to DC...Ive found something that is easily broken down, transportable, and easily set up...since we have to take it down nightly. I have the display planned out, and have already made a list of what is needed...

The display will have to fit behind our single table...so here is what Ive come up with...

A 4 panel grid wall....there will be 2 flat (parallel with hotel wall) and the 2 on the sides will be angled at 90 degrees....
it will be 6 ft tall so we can have the flags at all corners atop the wall. It will have various hooks for weapons and stands for helmets, as well as shelves for other props. I will be bringing a torso to display a set of armor also....Ive also looked into getting a few sign holders...my idea is that we can put "specs" about our weapons and armor next to where they are hanging..

Now for the damage...Ive searched and the best price I can find is $308.01...thats TOTAL with shipping.

Right now, I can't save for DC and buy it all myself, thats why Im asking for donations...Im thinking that if everyone attending DC can donate about $12.00 to $15.00 we should be able to have a nice fan table....

My Paypal is uscm91 (at) bellsouth.net...please put "display donation" in the subject line so I can distinguish between the AL Dinner and this...

Thanks in advance..

Thank you Derek :D

I have one of these setups that I can bring along. I would need a bit of help getting all moved in considering its all pretty big and hefty. I could leave all there for future use too.

Last year there were some USCM flyers on the table, but they were a little out of date, with things like the old-old forum address on and such. :wink:

Anyone doing one this year?

If so, I'd be happy to get some printed up if the master pdf/Word/some other format file can be shared around? 8)
