The Great Lakes Regional Firebird Gathering at Dundee was a pretty good show until the economy went south. After a successful show in 2007, the 2008 and 2009 shows didn't generate enough registrations to come to pass. A friend of mine, Joe DiCicco, pulled togther enough sponsors and registrations to get the 2010 event on track, but it looks like Mother Nature may have dealt the most cruel blow of all.
