The Reno show sounds like fun, and something a little different for us chippers...and others. I haven't planned that far in advance, but could see myself attending it PLUS (of course) the CCA annual convention at South Point 6 weeks later.
Regarding your extra activities as you described: "there will be a LOT of fun and interesting activities for you to take part in, both around and during the show" ... here's a suggestion:
If the AGA exhibit at U.Nevada Reno is available, how about some tie-in with them?
I hear that they will be packing up for a while as their space is being renovated, but if they are open (alternate location?) during your show, it would be awesome to see it again. And the Univ. of Nevada Reno campus is only 4 miles and 7 minutes from Grand Sierra Resort (according to Google Map).
For background, here's link to the AGA/Nevada Historical Society webpage, and also a write-up from a "chip dig" event that occurred there 10 years ago (with Howdy Herz' involvement).

I'm looking forward to hearing more about the show as details follow.
