I have havn't been in 2 years now. But I was on staff for 7 years.
You will have the time of your life. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. The dealers are all GREAT. Be sure to tell them coco said hi. And your husband will not be alone either. There are several family members who do that. The boardwalk is a little slow until the weekend but then it is in full swing. Be sure and have a slice at 3 bro. pizza on the boardwalk. Normaly one of the few places open all week. The ice cream, half vanilla and half orange is also a must.
Be sure and compete. It is user friendly. A good place to try things out. There is make-up, skit and paradability. Trust me, there is no shame in trying anything there.
If you don't get on stage you will wish you did while you are watching. I promise. Judging is VERY gentle. The don't even like to call it judging. Oh and there is balloons.
Watch for my little friend Bridget. She is 8 now I think. We have worked together. Her grandpa, Jim Mareska (cool breeze) is wonderful at balloons and often does the jam. Give them a hug for me.
I wish I was going. I am having convention withdrawl.
