An FYI note on lodging.
Granted things have (hopefully) changed / gotten better in the last 5 1/2 years, but when I attended the October 2010 Wash-In, I stayed at the Red Roof Inn - in Laurel. They had a severe bug infestation problem. Not only were these little water bugs or mini roaches(?) all over the walkways, walls, doors on one side of the building, they were in the rooms too! Not just one or two either, there was at least a dozen. I went back to the front desk and they gave me a room on the other side of the building. It was better, but I still discovered a few "uninvited guests" in that room as well.

WOW, Kevin, didn't know that, and thanks for letting us know. Laurel is 10 miles , more or less, north of Beltsville and another part of the universe. Motels there mostly serve the local horse track and truckers from the terminal, so prices are cheaper and you get what you pay for. Pretty sure Red Roof, College Park, is OK. Looks good, and it serves different folks, probably a little more expensive. It'll be good to see you again, we really enjoyed Long Beach and the Queen Mary.

Most of you I have never met and I've certainly never been to one of the "big ones" like this. I'm sending my registration form in as we speak and plan to be there. Thanks for the info! Many of you know my love for the GE's so can't wait to see some good ones up close and in person!

The BIG INTERNATIONAL WASH-IN is coming people!
If you HAVE been to a Wash-In before, you already know how much FUN they are!
If you've NEVER been to a Wash-In, make plans and go, you'll have an awesome time!!
Not only lots of unique machines to see and play with, but lots of people from AW to meet and chat with!
So.... TAKE that leap of faith, SUBMIT your vacation request, MAKE hotel reservations and BUY that airline ticket... you won't regret it!!!
Here are a few photos from the last Beltsville Museum Wash-In (Oct, 2010) to give you an idea of what you have to look forward to!

Have you checked the solenoids? Mainly the one which shifts the pump lever to drain. The wires connecting them for continuity? They are tugged back and forth by the agitator shaft the wig wag is mounted onto. It could also be a bad timer cam switch. |

Jetcone is working on the first batch of the convention tee shirts for those who have sent in their sign up sheets and said they wanted a shirt or two. Due to the time needed to make them, the end of July needs to be last call to get one. Also, we need your sign up sheet so we can print name tags. Hope to hear from you soon.

T-minus 36 days and counting people!
If you're planning to go and haven't registered yet, GET OFF YOUR BUTT and register NOW for the 2016 International Wash-In (Convention)!
Again, lots of major appliances to look at and play with, plus see the largest collection of washer/dryer combos you'll see in one location! Chat with a lot of AW members and other people too!
So sign up, see the collection, do laundry, eat, drink and have a great time!

Well, David and I are into our first week of our 8 week USA and Canada trip and the convention will be one of the highlights for me definitely!
Our t-shirts have been ordered plus I'll see the machines I'm bringing back to Australia finally in the flesh as well as John's extensive collection. Cheers Leon |

Guess this is it for tee-shirt orders, ( if you have an order already in the mail, We'll accommodate). But there's still time to send your registration for the event.
Hope to hear from you and to see you. |

Friday night's front-loader wash-in will feature Rosalie's Zero Suds detergent!
The inventor will be present to answer any questions. If you have not tried Rosalie's yet, bring some dirty clothes to wash, and see what Zero Suds can do for yourself. |

Jeff (thunderbird 6565) is the happy recipient. I am glad it is going to a good home.
I have a some duplicate dishwashers too... Some for parts, others may be fully functional. If someone is looking for something in particular please email me or respond to this thread and I will see what I have. It will be a good chance for me to clean out some space in my basement. I have been a little over zealous in my attempts to build my collection. If I have something to spare I will happily bring it up and give it to whomever. |

I would love to come out East for this year's wash-in but it's not feasible this time around. I started a new job 8/1 as a customer service rep for Lincoln Windows in Merrill, WI. This company is very hard to get into and I'm very fortunate to have gotten hired. Don't want to screw this up in any way! Hopefully in the future though. I'll be thinking of y'all though. The link is to our company website. Have fun! CLICK HERE TO GO TO polkanut's LINK |

I’m sorry to say that Charles and I won’t be able to make it. We had to take some more time off to help my brother. We got the phone call last week that he has advanced cancer. The doctors are going to try a surgery on him in the next few days to see if they can open up his throat so he can eat again. John I hope everything goes as planned.

I have contributed Farberware perks: an 8 cup, a 4 cup and one 8 cup with no guts. I have included an box and bubble wrap if you are flying in and need to get it to the UPS Store on Saturday morning for shipping home. |
