Dear Listees:
Greetings all. Not sure if this is an ad or a service announcement? : )
Well, it is warm and sunny in Tucson today, and I hear from one of my
spies downtown that the big parking lots are being cleared out in
preparation for the tents to go up.
This will be my 13th consecutive gem show and, in all that time, I've
always felt there was something missing -- an original, up-to-date
website dedicated exclusively to the Tucson shows. Yes, there are lots of
websites with dates and listings and show reviews, and so on, but I
wanted more.
So, we built one for you.
The new site was designed, written, researched and photographed entirely
by gem show professionals who live and work here in Tucson. As such, we
offer all kinds of local insider information that "Colored Stone" and the
like just don't have. The new site contains, among other things:
- A hip restaurant and dining guide with a multitude of restaurant and
cafe tips; most recommended venues are located very close to the shows
- Tucson bar, music and nightlife guide
- A brilliant essay on how to make the most of the show by Tucson native
and show professional Lisa Marie of Sirocco Design
- Where to stay: A guide to some of my favorite Tucson hotels, many of
which often still have rooms at or near showtime
- The best day trips out of Tucson, with photos and contact info
- A gallery of our favorite show photos from the past 12 years
- Pages on the weather, a brief history of Tucson, and general visitor's
info including road closures
- And, of course, a complete listing of every one of the 45+ shows, with
locations, dates, contact info. As there are a couple of new,
independent, local shows opening this year, we actually have THE most
complete show listing of any of the guides
We will also be adding a Special Events page with details about Michael's
auction, the Birthday Bash, etc.
This website is intended as a service to the community. I hope you enjoy
it and find it useful:

A SPECIAL OFFER TO LIST MEMBERS
To mark the launch of the new site, I am making a one-time special offer
to Meteorite List members. I am offering a very limited number of FREE
featured vendor listings to list members who will be exhibitors at the
'09 gem show, with a photo, details about your showroom and business, and
a link to your website. If you would like your site to be considered,
please email me OFF-LIST for details.
Here are the current featured listings:
http://tucsongemandmineralshows.net/tucson-show-vendors.htm
In addition,we will consider link exchanges with any List member sites
(non Tucson vendors) from our links page. I fully expect
www.tucsongemandmineralshows.net to become one of the top online gem show
resources, so this is a great PR opportunity for your site or business.
Please contact me off- List for details.
Finally, the Tenth Annual Meteor Mayhem Birthday Bash and Harvey Awards
will take place on Friday, February 6 at a very chic, new downtown Tucson
venue. I will post details separately.
Looking forward to seeing many of you here, very soon! Brings shorts and
sunglasses : )
Regards,
Geoff N.
