[CQ-Contest] MRRC Dayton Hospitality Suite

        Back in the Good Old Days, hospitality suites at Dayton meant a 
rather small room on an upper floor of whatever hotel (Sheraton, Admiral 
Bimbo, Stouffer's, etc.), packed with people and with crowds flowing out into 
the hallways.  We fondly remember the visits from hotel security about 
complaints from the one poor non-ham on the floor who actually thought 1 a.m. 
was a good time to be sleeping!

        With the advent of the main floor suite, and its crowds overflowing 
into the hallway outside (with no guests there to complain), the upper floor 
suites, including Mad River's, have not had the people like in the Good Old 
Days. 

        Recognizing this trend (not to mention that many of us now find 1 
a.m. a perfectly fine time to be sleeping!    zzzz ~ :-)-<--<    ),  we have 
chosen this year not to have our suite at the Crown Plaza.  In its place the 
Mad River Radio Club is pleased to announce:


                        THE MAD RIVER RADIO CLUB "SUITE IN THE SUN"
  

        The "Suite in the Sun" will  give contesters a place to meet, talk, 
and relax in the flea market during the day on Friday and Saturday, May 
13-14.  Soft drinks and light refreshments will be offered, as well as a 
place to sit down and talk contests.  Just show up and use any good contester 
password, like "running Europe", "new multiplier", "FT-1000MP", or whatever!

        The "suite" will be located in flea market spaces  #3858-3860.  This 
is several rows back from the Arena, just off the main aisle,  to the right 
as you head back from the hockey rink rear door.

        Stop by, say hello, and hang around for a bit while you take a break 
from your search for bargains. Get a head start on the evening hospitality 
suites!  Or take some time to look for some fine bargains among the goodies 
our club members will be selling.

        We're looking forward to Dayton, and seeing our friends and fellow 
contesters at the first MRRC Suite in the Sun!   (Only two weeks away!)
