Just thought I'd let y'all know what Ron hood, Mike Fuller from TOPS, myself and a couple others are up to. I've copied and pasted our press release here:
Hoods Woods, TOPS Knives, SGFIVE, and Reed Exhibitions proudly announce the biggest international training and equipment event in history for law enforcement, military, search & rescue and the extreme recreational enthusiast:
T.A.G. Extreme!
This training and gear exhibit event has been conceived, designed, and implemented by professional operators for their peers, and for the consumer enthusiast who trains in everything from shooting to parachuting, mountaineering to orienteering, and all other activities for extreme assignments and/or recreation. Everyone in attendance can benefit from cross training with their peers from around the world to improve their skills, and try out the latest gear available from top manufacturers in the industry.
Who Will Attend?
--Operators and procurement officers from many federal, state, local, and international police agencies.
--Military units from all branches of the US Armed Forces, France, Germany, Japan, and many other countries.
--Search & rescue organizations from around the world, including firefighters.
--Consumers interested in everything from backpacking, camping, rock climbing, martial arts, and more.
What Kind of Training and Demonstrations Will Be Offered?
--All aspects of professional enforcement, special operations, search and rescue, and many other techniques will be covered for attendees from around the world.
--Civilians will be able to try out gear and take classes from the pros, in everything from shooting to outdoor survival and camping skills.
--SWAT teams will measure their skills in dynamic entry and shooting competitions against Spec Ops units, plus much more.
--There will be a well-coordinated, international intelligence-sharing symposium for police and military agencies in order to gather information on terrorists, international criminal gangs, and rogue governments (not open to the public). This list is just a partial example of activites.
T.A.G. Extreme will feature the most admired and recognized trainers from around the world. The top manufacturers from the firearms, outdoors, extreme sports, and tactical industries have already signed on board. This event is designed to allow manufacturers of tactical gear to have their equipment used, evaluated, and purchased via the training and demonstration events, and allow attendees from the pro and civilian sectors to "try before they buy." Manufacturers will have booth space on the trade show floor in order to interact with the procurement officers from every group in attendance, and with the greater consumer population.
This is the most comprehensive, action-oriented, fast-paced, and exciting conference event in the history of the tactical industry! It is the MUST-ATTEND event of the year!
Dates: October 4-7, 2002 Location: Las Vegas Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada.
