We used to have our National where the APA National was. Warren went out to MA or somewhere in the far northeast where the APA National and our National and there was 2 orps there. That is when we changed it to areas that would have alot of orps. This will be one of the bigger National with as many orps as they have. Also a good orp guy running the show.

Sandy and I always go to the Minnesota State Show. It is very well run. Hutchinson is about one hour west of Minneapolis.
