I hope this year will be different. I have $30K to order hardware,
rigging and spars between now and the first of the year and a bunch of
questions. I wonder if it is possible to call in advance and arrange an
appointment?

absolutely. They'd much prefer that, usually before or after the show
hours, unless it's absolutely dead. A list of what you're shopping for will
get them both salivating and sharpening their pencils if you let them know
who *else* you'll be seeing.

Been there, done that...
