N2IC mentioned there was a nearby high school. If you remember there was a year that the contest forum at Dayton was held at a high school down the street from Hara. Maybe they will do the same in Xenia?

I took the exams for Advanced and Extra Class license in Dayton, April 30, 1978. The test sessions were held at the high school.

I remember that memorable tornado event. I’m in Wooster, OH, about 150 miles from Xenia as the crow flies; I read about paper debris found in our local area identified as having come from a financial institution in Xenia.
