Polls can be fun while waiting for open water.

I drove by the Country Inn & Suites on Saturday and the parking lot was empty. Hopefully we'll be back at it next year.

I'm squarely in the LIVE Canoecopia category for next year as well. I'd echo PD's observations however the Q&A with some of the presenters worked well. Kevin Callan started drinking scotch about half-way through his session. The second half of his 1 hr and 20 min session was a bit more animated.

I've been hitting some of the 'sessions'....a few good ones in there. Haven't done any 'live' sessions. The good part is you can 'walk out' on a boring presentation without feeling guilty or just fast fwd through the lame parts. Visiting the exhibitor booths just isn't the same....may as well just go to their website. Interesting note, looks like Badger Paddles has moved in with Swift Canoes - watch Mike Ramsey's 'session'. Hope it works out for them. There's still gear discounts, but no real 'browsing', so unless you know what you're looking for, it gets old quick. I was disappointed in the 'new for 2021' stuff....not much to get excited about this year - but, hey, it was a pandemic year. That and there's no impetus to pore over gear when it seems I already have 3 or 4 of everything. Shocked

I know it's been around for longer and it's now not the same but... I give the other, other db a lot of credit for calling it off last year on short notice and wish him the all the best.

Bill, I agree on the show guide. Even a downloadable version would have been nice, but not the case. Regarding sessions - from the online show guide, section 'Getting the Most out of Virtual Canoecopia' - Since room sizes are unlimited and most presentations will be available for viewing up to 60 days after the event, you won't miss a thing! Some speakers have requested their content be removed after a shorter period of time, so for those few, that will be indicated in their presentation description. Live presentations and live Q&A's will be recorded and uploaded after the weekend.

Got my tickets/registered last night.
