Here is a vendor list:
Al & Josh Shoemaker, Anthony Ellis, Billy Buice, Billy Macallister, Bob and Michael Buckner, Bob Harwell, Brandon Washington, Brian Lawter, Chad Scruggs, Dan Harris, Darrell Gibson & Daryal Gosey, Darrin Dawkins, David Anderson, Dean Mundhenke, Dickie Champion, Doug Morgan, Duncan Dobie, Ed Jenkins, Fred Cox, Gene Gardner, Harold and Derick Fowler, Herb McClure, Hoyt Brown, Irving Whitt, Jamey Rex, Jeff Erb, Jeff Lacey, Jeff McKamey, Jeremy Stafford, Jody Harrison & Jackie Lea, John Dangerfield, Joseph Martin, Kelly Puckett, Kevin Cantrell, Kevin Dorsey, Kevin Farr, Kevin Kirkpatrick, Kevin Poschel, Kyle Osborne, Lamar Williams, Lee Chadwick, Lon Trice, Mark McPhail, Mark Prodomme, Mark Sharpe, Marlin Watkins, Matt McLain, Melvin Newman, Mike Lapp (and Company), Olin Humphries, Richard Hudson, Robert Glover, Ron Watters, Russell Beard, Scott Vieting, Steve Mann, Tim Bullock, Tim Sanford, Tony Quarino, Wayne Hendrix, Wendell Lancaster, Will Dutton and William Lambert.

Unicoi does have just a few rooms left. If you are wanting to stay at the lodge, I'd recommend giving them a call soon. Don't book online. Give them a call and press "0" for the operator. Their online booking isn't the greatest in the world and it may show they are booked. The promo code is "Unicoi Turkey Show" for the discount.

Just called and reserved the LAST room at Unicoi for the weekend. It was a double room, which I won't need. I went ahead and booked it, but this is a heads up for anybody that is already planning on going but has someone else that wants to tag along. I'd be more than happy to trade rooms assuming we get it cleared with the lodge, the double is only $115 a night with the discount. Anybody interested in this opportunity just PM me. If not, I'll probably need the extra bed to sleep in after the first night at the convention anyways, because the woman won't be too happy.

The lodge number is 1-800-573-9659. Remember to press "0" for the operator.  Tell them Unicoi Turkey Show for the discounted rate.

Mapquest says it's a little under 3 hours to go from Charlotte NC to Unicoi TN.  Given I have never attended, are there places closer to the event that we can get a hotel?  Thinking of flying into Charlotte and getting a hotel there but might be more convenient to get a little closer.  Either way, I have to fly in and out of Charlotte.

The event is in Helen, Ga at Unicoi State Park, not in Unicoi, TN.

All rooms are supposed to be priced the same.
