Announcing...
On Friday and Saturday, October 13 and 14, 2006 you’re invited to
gather at Silvermont Mansion in Brevard, North Carolina for Narrow
Trak 06. This annual convention will feature camaraderie, seminars,
manufacturer displays, operating modules, popular-vote model contest
and Saturday night entertainment.
Seminars, as usual will feature a mix of prototype and modeling.
Some of our presenters and the subject include:
•Jerry Ledford, The narrow gauge logging railroads of the Champion
Fibre Company in Western North Carolina, 1908-1947

Our Saturday night, October 14th, we’ll have Roy Chapman and his
group, True Blue Grass (with special guest, Clarence Brown) perform
exclusively for us. If you’ve never heard bluegrass, you’re in for a
treat. If you already love bluegrass music, you’re gonna hear music
in the finest Bill Monroe tradition.
For those of you that already have your registration forms, get them
in here! We need to know how many dancing girls to hire.
