To make sure everyone is aware, the Shelby hamfest has moved and will be held in the town of Dallas (Gaston County) for the next five years.

Be sure to get the latest (although there's not much to change) information at http://www.shelbyhamfest.org/

I had a great time at the hamfest. I think the tailgate section was alot bigger at this location. Only drawback to some, was it was hilly. Lots of walking uphill and downhill. The indoor area was alot smaller, not to mention there was only ONE indoor area. But I still found some good deals, and we all had a good time. Will probably return tomorrow for a little bit, if the guys want to do it, then make the 6 hour trip back to GA. Hope everyone else had a good time too! Next for us will be Melbourne, FLA, if its still on the map... on Oct 11th
