[Fourlanders] UPDATE! : Re: [Hamvention] Hamvention Moving

Thu Aug 4 02:38:25 EDT 2016

FYI, I made my hotel reservation today for Dayton at the Doubletree.  Apparently the renovations are just about finished.  It will be interesting to see what the place looks like.  Kim, any plans for another VHF banquet?  I also made my hotel reservation for Huntsville.  I couldn't get in the Embassy Suites but there is a Homewood Suites that is less than a mile away so I went for that.  Looking forward to seeing folks at Huntsville and telling you about our adventure with customs in Jamaica.

>>> The Dayton Amateur Radio Association (DARA) regrets to inform our many vendors, visitors and stakeholders that, unfortunately, HARA has announced the closing of their facility.  We have begun execution of our contingency plan to move Hamvention® 2017 to a new home.
>>> 
>>>

>>> DARA and Hamvention® have enjoyed many successful years working together with HARA Arena and we wish the Wampler family the best.

>>> DARA and Hamvention® have been working on a contingency plan in the event HARA would become unavailable. We have spent many hours over the last few years evaluating possible locations and have found one in the area we believe will be a great new home! Due to logistics and timing issues, we will make a formal announcement introducing our new partner. This information will be coming soon. We all believe this new venue will be a spectacular place to hold our beloved event. Please rest assured we will have the event on the same weekend and, since it will be in the region, the current accommodations and outside events already planned for Hamvention 2017 should not be affected.
