August and September Hamfests
« on: June 27, 2003, 06:46:26 AM »

I guess this new topic is for such items as this,
guess I'll find out....
Now is a good time to remind folks in the South of
2 well known Hamfests and a local but fun Tailgate
Party that occurs in August and early September.
(1)The Huntsville, Alabama Hamfest will be held on
   August 16 and 17 . It is usually a very good
   Hamfest.With new equipment dealers and new and
   used parts galore. A great place to get happy.
(2)The Shelby , North Carolina Hamfest will be held
   August 30 and 31, Labor Day weekend. This is a
   great Hamfest and is growing each year. It does
   require advanced lodging reservations and to
   avoid standing in line at the ticket tables you
   want to order gate tickets. There is lots to see
   and great food and for us die-hard Iced Tea  
   drinkers they have real SWEET iced tea , not
   the kind them Yankees say "well ,you can add the
   sugar" HA!
(3) The annual Cedar Forest Tailgate  Extravaganza
   will be held on Sunday ,August 24. It may not be
   large but it is a great opportunity to see old
   friends and pick up a part or two. There is a
   great deal of variety but ,to date, no new
   equipment dealers. Bring your umberella, it often
   rains. Follow the signs through the "Cedars of
   Lebanon State Park" , just south of I-40 at
   Lebanon , Tennessee. Get there early, Southerners
   like to spend Sunday afternoon relaxing on the
   front porch .
