I can tell you Brad did it again this year! He brought us a lot of great information and freebies! Ben Kinney also did a great job talking about less lead generation.

Howdy and evening to you Fred

Fred,
I've read that the RainCamps are always mighty good, and that folks get to learn some mighty useful things. But reckon I won't ever get to see first hand, seeing that the AR staff refuse to hold a RainCamp in New Hampshire or Vermont.

Have a good one
