Exhibit
"The show continues to grow and develop. The people are friendly and so helpful! I think it is a great show. I came to see Michael Simon and he was awesome. I found myself so engaged and I took out my phone and began to take notes. Such a great show right here in central Ohio. Great job everyone! See you next year!” - Linda Sebok, Director of Training, White Caste Systems
