We’ve arrived at the 2017 Hamvention–the first year at the new venue at Greene County Fairgrounds in\u00a0Xenia, Ohio.<\/p>\n

By request, I’m posting photos taken today of the new site while exhibitors are setting up.<\/p>\n

I hope we don’t have rain this year as many of the tents have open seams and some holes. Additionally, it’s quite dark inside.
