[SJDXA] 2017 Hamvention will not be held at Hara

Dayton Hamvention® 2017 News Update

The Dayton Amateur Radio Association (DARA) 
regrets to inform our many vendors, visitors and 
stakeholders that, unfortunately, HARA has 
announced the closing of their facility. We have 
begun execution of our contingency plan to move Hamvention® 2017 to a new home.

DARA and Hamvention® have enjoyed many successful 
years working together with HARA Arena and we wish the Wampler family the best.

DARA and Hamvention® have been working on a 
contingency plan in the event HARA would become 
unavailable. We have spent many hours over the 
last few years evaluating possible locations and 
have found one in the area we believe will be a 
great new home! Due to logistics and timing 
issues, we will make a formal announcement 
introducing our new partner. This information 
will be coming soon. We all believe this new 
venue will be a spectacular place to hold our 
beloved event. Please rest assured we will have 
the event on the same weekend and, since it will 
be in the region, the current accommodations and 
outside events already planned for Hamvention 2017 should not be affected.

We look forward to your continued support as we 
move to a new future with The Dayton Hamvention®.

Ron Cramer

General Chairman
Dayton Hamvention 2017
