So I see the banner ads and posts all over the place for various reptile shows. I have wanted to attend some of these events but do not live anywhere close. There isn't much for reptile sellers in my area (I don't count Petco or Petsmart).

I know that it is a large undertaking and may not even be possible but I wanted to see about organizing a show in my town. I am looking for suggestions or some guidance about how to begin this process. We do have a facility that could accomadate said event but before I would book it, I would need to find out if we would have the vendors/attendee's to make it work.

I live in Rapid City, SD. Population is about 75k and we are about five hours from Denver, CO. We do have a reptile learning center called Reptile Gardens but it is more focused as a tourist attraction.

Any suggestions on where to begin?
