    We are planning an expo in Norwalk, OH toward the end of August 2013.

    For those who are curious,
    UPEW has officially become Parallax Expo, and UPENE has officially become Propellerpowered Expo.

    There is simply no reason to refer to either even as "unofficial" any longer.
    (and perhaps after 2006, there never was. :) )

    Any planned for the Chicago area?

    I moved from Sandusky, OH about 7 months ago and living in Kalamazoo, MI now. Chicago is closer to me now but Norwalk, OH was in my back yard from Sanduski, OH. Might be a good trip to take and possibly visit Cedar Point amusement park and see some friends again.

    Thanks Jeff.

    I'm hoping it's possible to have an expo in Chicago again.

    Ottawa IL was a great location for the Chicago area. Cheap, easy parking, good restaurants, good accommodations, easy to get too.

    Lets do it that again.

    @DiverBob,

    The Norwalk show has been moved a little south (not too far!)

    Good to see a date set for this... I'll be there! I noticed the link you posted says it's Saturday Aug. 13th, but the thread says the 17th. There's no Saturday Aug. 13th this year, so I'm gonna guess it's the 17th. ;) Just wanted to bring that to your attention. :)

    I just wanted to let you know that we are planning on having a robot contest (or two) at the PropellerPowered Expo this year.

    There is a discussion thread over at PropellerPowered (http://propellerpowered.com/forum/index.php?topic=495.0) and I would appreciate any input from anyone (even if you are not planning on attending this year.)
