Not sure yet. One of out regulars retired and moved to AZ, so we have to change our standard operating procedure.

Wodstock and I have to go. She's an assistant chair for the testing sessions.

My job is to get her there in 1 (or so) piece. I'll be parking in the Committee lot, look for the BFL, Magpul, and FUAC stickers on the back window.

Looks like we'll be staying at the Extended Stay place near the Waffle House near WPAFB again. Next year we'll be towing our own hotel room.

Yes and one of my friends from my fire department as well currently researching where to stay. Will be my first time going

for places to stay
I would suggest the hotel in octa. its a truck stop and not too far from the ham fest .
look for hotels east of Dayton the towns are smaller and less crowded and the drive is just about the same.
Washington court house, Wilmington are good choices
if anyone wants a tour guide or dinner partner look me up.
pm me and I will give you my cell number

Thanks, now that I think about it, this makes a lot of sense. I may have to rethink my hotel choice.

I have a very early flight out of CVG on Sunday and unless I have a compelling reason I will probably find a hotel near there Sat night.
