Also, I just heard from Mitch and he’s no longer able to attend so we can spread out a little into his space if needed.

If I have the extra space, I’ll bring them just to have. Trying to figure out how to pack a smaller trunk has been a unique challenge. 🤔

They have an internal deadline of mid-May to finalize their layout and then shortly thereafter to Todd. This year, Todd sent them revisions and they made changes. If we really want to grow our space, we should think about following a similar timeline, if not sooner.
