Patrick Konopelski, President of the IAHA sent us this, so we thought we'd pass it on:

Greetings,
 
To all our new friends we made at HauntCon, I say welcome.  I'm sure everyone involved agrees it was a huge success.  Leonard and Jeanie Pickle once again did an outstanding job at bringing people in this amazing industry together.  I told Leonard personally he will go down in our industry's history as the person that made it possible for the haunt owner to see other haunts around the country. 
 
Speaking of haunt owners, a huge IAHA thanks to past president Tim Gavinski and his wife Ann Marie for putting together one of the best haunt tours and party this industry has ever seen.  It was a great tour, the food was excellent and the open bar...well what else do I have to say about an open bar!  A special thanks to Wristband Resources for underwriting the party! 
 
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the many vendors that donated products and certificates to our very successful auction held at the party.  Please review the list of vendors and their contributions in this Screamzine.  Together we raised almost $7,000 that will go toward our national marketing campaign the will benefit everyone in our industry.  We also kicked off the IAHA Great Hearse Raffle.  Tickets are $10.00 and will be available on our website and at all the conventions for the next year.
 
We also unveiled our IAHA hospitality suite at the hotel.  It was enjoyed by attendees and vendors alike as a place to meet and greet or simply unwind.  The next and final convention for the season is the Midwest Haunters Convention in June.  Hope to see you there!
