Maybe one of the members of DARA reads this list... Years ago, when the club farmed out the running of the Hamvention to a real business that new what to do, it was nice to have your vendor packet in the mail by January, so that you could make your plans way in advance and have all of your ducks in a row - the flea market was well- organized and the help was there (and also the policing!)
Since the club has taken over the duties, they have been very lax as to actual hamfest service, as I truly believe that THEY think we all will show up anyway, no matter WHAT level of service they give. I haven't been there as a vendor since then, and I don't think I'll go back as a vendor until they change their attitude... (...READ - Don't hold your breath...)
