It’s official, we're having a hamfest!

October 17th 2009 at the Miami Mahi Shrine. Tailgate section and indoor swap just as last year. We hope to keep attendee and vendor prices the same as last year. As always we are open to ideas and suggestions and try to implement them if we have the resources and manpower to do it. for those that are wondering this is the weekend after the Melbourne hamfest.

Our new venue lends itself to more relaxed rules and a little fun. In keeping with our tradition of doing something no other hamfest has ever done, we're looking to do something that probably hasn’t been done in any organized event.. A hamabout demo derby! Ram'em in your rascal! Hit'em in your Hoveround! Last Hamabout still running wins a 1 year subscription to make magazine.

More info as things come together!
