World Balloon Covention

There's a balloon convention in Dallas, www.worldballoonconvention.com, that I'd really like to go to but it's $895 to register. That's a #### load of money. Do balloon conventions usually cost this much?

They are pricey and I think you have to pay a small bit to each instructor as well.

That's not your run of the mill balloon convention. There are WONDERFUL instructors from both sides of balloons, but that one focuses more on the decor side than the twisting side.

Take a look at www.balloonconvention.com being held in Chicago the end of February. I've been to a couple of Twist and Shouts in the past. GREAT place to learn a LOT! Your head will SPIN!!!!! Registration is $225.

Unfortunately, my twisting days are over due to an acquired latex allergy from twisting. And I was just getting started!
