Tucson’s Electric Promoter: A Tribute to Al Sargent
Al Sargent passed away suddenly, July
4, 2010, in Tucson. We who are in
the industry know that Al owned and
operated the Denver Expo and the Tucson
Electric Park Gem & Mineral Show. Some who
read this tribute knew Al much better than I,
really knew him-his true gifts and abilities, his
faults and fl aws—like his best friend, Dianna
Kramer, and his son, Josh Sargent. Al and I had
a business friendship, one in which we usually
put on a smile, engaged in some surfacy chit-
chat about the show, bitched and moaned about
not getting paid on time by advertisers (me)
or vendors (him), etc. For the last six years my
company produced the programs for the TEP
Show, and Al placed ads in our various show
guides and on our website.
Th ough we didn’t venture
much beyond our businesses
in conversation, a few of my
experiences with him taught
me a couple things about this
gentleman that will have a
lasting impression on me.
One thing I learned about
Al was that he would rather
lose money than to have
any part in bad business
practices. A couple of years
ago one of Al’s TEP vendors
who advertised in one of our
Tucson show guides wouldn’t
pay us for their ad. Al and I
were talking at the TEP show that year, and
I told him about it. No questions asked, Al
simply asked me to follow him. He marched me
to the vendor, asked him why he wouldn’t pay
me, decided his reasons weren’t satisfactory, and
swiftly informed the vendor that he needed to
pay me for the ad or he wouldn’t be permitted
to be in the show next year. Whoa! Al was six
inches shorter and 100 pounds lighter than
me—and the vendor was even bigger than
me! But Al would have none of it. No matter
the physical size of a man, no matter the
circumstances, Al insisted on integrity
in business.
Another thing, Al was as generous a man
as I have met in the rock, gem and mineral
industry. Not that I haven’t met a lot of sincerely
wonderful folks who deal in this trade, I
have, but I can point to several times when
Al selfl essly went out of his way to make life
easier and better for me, and these gestures,
more than anything else, impact how I will
remember Al. Such as, after the fi rst year that
I published the Tucson EZ-Guide I met Al
for the fi rst time, and he off ered to store our
magazine racks in his storage facility every year
after that; he allowed me to have the Tucson EZ-Guides shipped to TEP each year where he
made sure they remained under tarps or in a
big truck to keep them dry; every year when he
learned that I was at the TEP show in Tucson
he’d hop in his truck and drive to the back of
the show and spend a few engaged minutes
just chatting over a smoke
with me; in both Denver and
Tucson he would inform his
security guards who patrolled
the shows at night to be sure
to let me into the show facility
after hours so I could make
sure our racks were restocked
with guides; Al paid for all
his Xpo Press ads as soon as
he received an invoice, and
when he said I could pick up
a check in Tucson he had a
check waiting for me (or he’d
have Dianna write one as soon
as I arrived at the show)—in
my business, this quality says
a lot to me about a person; and who can forget
the nicest outdoor restroom facility available
anywhere—complete with classical music—for
which Al would pay tens of thousands of dollars
just to serve the folks at TEP (my wife loved Al
for that act of kindness!).
All in all, Al took care of his people. He
served us very well, and for this I am grateful
and will remember him with utmost respect.
Many of you can attest to this as well. If
you would like to write any kind notes of
remembrance concerning Al, I will pass your
notes along to Dianna and Josh, and I’ll publish
some of them in the 2011 Tucson EZ-Guide. You can email me at [email protected],
or mail to Xpo Press, P.O. Box 740864, Arvada,
CO 80006.

For two weeks every winter, the rock and gem world meets in Tucson as it becomes a bustling, international marketplace of buyers and sellers at the Tucson Gem, Mineral & Fossil Showcase. The “Gem Show” is much more than a single event at one location. Rather, there
are thousands of participants and attendees at nearly 50 sites around town. Dozens of shows take place at the same time - in giant white tents, at hotels and resorts, and at exhibit halls.
There’s something for everyone at the many open-to-the-public shows—from gold and diamonds to granite bookends and glass beads, and from fi ne specimens of dinosaur fossils to opals dug from the Australian Outback.
Most of the gem and mineral shows around Tucson are free and hours vary. For show schedule, vendor lists, and fl oorplans for the 2011 Tucson Gem, Mineral & Fossil Showcase go to www.xpopress.com. For information about individual shows use the contact information below.

Quartzsite, Arizona, barely 20 miles east of the Colorado river, on I-10, may be the RV boondocking capital of the
world, and the town has been a rockhound’s dream since the 1960s. Quartzsite has indeed become a mecca to well over a million visitors and hundreds of vendors for rocks, gems, mineral specimens and fossils during the town’s famous two-month-long gem show and swap meet every January and February. From its humble beginnings the now-massive Quartzsite show has grown to RV-epic proportions, with vendors offering everything from a Navajo rug to a new turbo-charged RV engine. Admission is free as is camping on the nearby government lands, where RVers claim
a bit of dusty desert soil for their very own. Quartzsite is HOT and folks are scarce in the summer when the temp tops 100 degrees as often as not. In the winter, when the town of a few hundred permanent residents swells to tens of thousands at a time (most in RVs), the temperature is typically mild with sunny skies, so if you show up bring shorts and suntan lotion. For more Quartzsite show information go to www.xpopress.com.
