Any poop about this festo ? It's known as the WACOM Fest at the Washington County Fairgrounds , Washington PA. My oldest is considering the trip this Sunday, Nov. 4th.

Thanks,
Bob

Hey Bob,
I know nothing of this fester, but with the Fall Butler PA fest now non existent it has a potential
to fill a needed Fall Fester timeslot in W PA. I have family stuff going on this weekend or I would check it out..

Two of the hamfest sponsor's are coming in from Jersey, so "greatness" is written all over it.

Looks like right next door is the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum. What's not to like? A hamfest and "juice" in the same place. I might just try it.

Well, we did go.............
The fairgrounds was very crowded when we pulled in. Seems there was a gun show going on at the same time. Most people were at the gun show. It is a very small fest IMHO, but with very sociable and nice folks. There were only 3 (count them) tail gate sellers. Maybe I hit them on a slow year, but I spent a lot of time over at the Trolley museum.
