Canoecopia 2026

Made my hotel reservations. Will look at air before long but not always less in advance any more, plus drive and train are not off the table. It's a great event if you've never been. this will be like no 20 for me.
March 13-15, Madison WI.

It will be interesting to see chat if any changes will take place with the potential sale of Rutabaga, at least they are not closing.

Yes indeed. But Canoecopia is after all the Rutabaga store relocated for 3 days to the Alliant Energy Center, so sort of inseparable.

Someone told me (when Rutabaga was closing) that they would be changing over to a different model where the vendors/suppliers would be bringing their own inventory to sell instead of Rutabaga’s. Can’t remember if that was in one of Darren’s posts or if it was Bill Swift that told me when I talked to him a few weeks ago. Now that they are not closing, I am assuming it will stay the same as it used to be - pretty much all Rutabaga inventory.
