They used to. AKC, Fox and several others used to set up there. I haven't been recently.
I met, and became friends with Angelo Campolin, Sr.. Angelo Jr., Gianni Campolin, Michele Beltrame, Maurizio Mazzoli, Michele DiBon, and others.

I didn't see any of the Italian makers there. There wasn't much in the way of Italian autos there

I have heard from others confirming GTS21's comment that there was little Italian or older switchblades there at all...I always wanted to go to Blade, but the attraction is fading based on what I hear of the last few years......
