Chris Schwarz gave my club's show in Saratoga Springs, NY 3/26-3/27 a nice write up again:

What are some of the places in Saratoga where people hang out after the end of the show days? Any good ones? Do the presenters all hang out together wearing gang colors and pushing people off of sidewalks? I've heard stories you guys are a rough bunch. ;)

Well... I had dinner with Ernie Conver, Chris Schwarz, and Phil Lowe one evening last year and dinner the next night with a bunch of the Totally Turning presenters (not sure how that happened... I'm a flatboarder... but I think it was Matt Clarke with whom I connected) in the hotel restaurant. Other years, like when Doug Stowe was there, we walked up the main drag and "just picked one." There are a lot of good places in Saratoga Springs!
The dinner discussions with the professionals are enlightening but generally have nothing to do with techniques and processes. They are more along the lines of trends, law suits (the Saw Stop nonsense was fodder last year), and what new and interesting stuff we experienced there. I suggest you start making your "dinner plans" very early in the day if you want to chat with specific people.
Definitely look for me!
