The Commodore Vegas Expo has continued for 12 years with the support of   
   the Fresno Commodore User Group, the Clark County Commodore Computer Club (of   
   Las Vegas), the Southern California Commodore & Amiga Network, and the   
   Portland Commodore User    
   Group.  Without the involvement of these clubs, CommVEx would have not gone on   
   to being what it is today -- a successful, yearly Commodore/Amiga event.   
        Last year I was contacted by Stephen Jones of the Living Computer Museum   
   in Seattle, Washington.  He wanted to know if I could do a similar event in   
   Seattle.  I replied but heard nothing back.  A few weeks ago I visited the   
   Living Computer Museum    
   and talked to Matisse Fletcher, events coordinator for the museum.  I talked   
   to her about a two-day, Seattle Commodore/Amiga event in the vein of a   
   CommVEx.  She was very open to the idea but wanted more details.  I sent her a   
   follow-up e-mail when I    
   returned to California and received her reply shortly thereafter.  She has   
   agreed to such an event and has locked in a date for it -- June 10-11, 2017.   
        The event will be called the Pacific Commodore Expo NW or PaCommEx for   
   short.  It will be like CommVEx, except we cannot have buying/selling/raffling   
   due to the non-profit status of the museum.  The museum will charge its own   
   admittance fee, which    
   will be a few dollars per person.  We can set-up on Friday, but on the days of   
   the show, we are limited to the hours the museum is open.  PaCommEx will be   
   supported by the Fresno Commodore User Group, the Portland Commodore User   
   Group, the Puget Sound    
   Commodore User Group (of Tacoma), and the Commodore 64 Enthusiasts of Greater   
   Victoria.
