luck at the Host Chapter Gift Store finding special mementos to remember
their trip to Charlotte. Located on the main Expo floor, the gift store
offers a variety of regional wares, including beautiful pottery, sweetgrass
baskets, handmade jewelry, and tasty Southern treats. Guests can also
pick up 2002 convention hats and T-shirts.
