Title: Deerfield - The Countdown Has Begun!
Post by: W1RC on July 12, 2007, 07:58:25 AM
Only three months to go until NEAR-Fest II opens its' gates at Deerfield Fairgrounds at 0900 on October 12th.

We will have a larger, more centrally-located commercial building, more restroom facilities, more food vendors and more goodies.

I would like to see the attendance top 3,000 in October.  You can help by talking it up on the air, online and with your buddies.  Get the word out that NEAR-Fest is happening.  We did it in May and are going to do it again in October with your help.  You won't be disappointed!

There is a great deal of work to do.  If you want to help e-mail k1twf@near-fest.com.


Keep checking the NEAR-Fest Web site for full details.

Mike,
Do you know what attendance has been for previous Hoss-Traders fests by any chance?

I'm afraid not.  They didn't release those figures.  Most event organizers keep the real figures to themselves for many reasons.  Probably the main one is to try to keep the venue from increasing the rent.
