Workshop or Funshop?

We recently returned from a 3-day class and one-day workshop in Burbank, thanks to I.A.T.S.E. Local 728, who hosted the events. As Heather Hillmeyer-Newsome (former lighting programmer on "Desperate Housewives") said, Alan Rowe, who is the safety and training director for Local 728 and helped put it all together, "is responsible for the best damn education program any organization has ever put together!" After the class, Alan, Roger Lattin and I conducted a workshop at Dadco (Ron Dalquist's shop) and it was really a lot of fun because we had access to portable power generators, portable power distros, and lots of HMIs. It went so well that Alan and I have already decided to do it again next year. APT is also considering taking a similar event to other locations. If you have any ideas about where we can hold such an event, we'd love to hear from you. We look forward to your suggestions.
