Some time ago my wife mentioned that IF she were ever to come to Dayton during the Hamvention, she'd probably spend time at Wright-Patt. There's lots to see there, including several former Air Force One aircraft.

Dayton Hamvention Input Wanted. My friend Tom is directly involved with the Dayton Hamvention. His position in the 2006 year project is more toward the public relations side. He has asked me to poll you folks for new ideas, opinions and information for the 2006 Hamvention. The primary goal of this poll is to source ideas, which will be used to make the whole Hamvention event more attractive to non-hams... ie spouses and persons not normally attending the Hamvention. The quesion is: "What would it take to get your spouse to want to come to the Dayton Hamvention or spend time in the Greater Dayton Area while you attend the event?" We're looking for ideas regarding things we can offer at the Hamvention and off site. One example might be a special shuttle service to available local shopping, tours of historical locations and culture. A new well posted list of non Amateur-Hamvention events and resources will probably be started and expanded with all the available input we receive. This is just the starting point for this poll. The grass roots operation of the DARA people means they're trying hard to return the Hamvention to its more fun mode and they are looking for ideas to offer up to the public. **** I'll forward anything you want to send in, even the gripes and groans from past troubles that would result in making the future Hamventions better. One report I sent in from last year was related to the available Disabled Persons Electric Carts. Understand some of those resources are provided by the HARA Arena People and not related to Hamvention. So the feedback was received and sent in... how that information is used might not be under the control of the DARA People. Thanks much... DARA would like to know what it's going to take to make your non-ham spouse or friend interested in going to the Dayton Area or attend the Hamvention while your in town? Please reply direct back to me and I'll forward your ideas and comments along. thanks skipp skipp025 at yahoo.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
