**Our showcase selection people volunteer an incredible number of hours to audition approximately 300 applicants. As a reward for this tedious procedure, they may keep any tapes/CDs they wish. This could benefit you, considering our committee is comprised of presenters who book various folk venues in the region and/or folk DJ's who may play your CD on their shows. They will bring to the conference any promo material and/or CDs they already have or feel they do not need. You may pick them up in the instrument check room during the conference. Sorry, we are not able to return any material by mail. Anything not picked up before the conclusion of the conference will be donated or disposed of.
