HamCation Chairman's Message 2012
A big THANK YOU to all Vendors, Visitors and Volunteers,
Orlando HamCation® 2012 was a huge success!
We sold more commercial booths tailgate spots, swap-tables, RV-nights and tickets than ever. In most areas we were completely sold out. Many vendors decided to secure their booth, tailgate spot, RV nights or swap table space for 2013 before leaving.
The weather was great, even a chilly Sunday morning did not deter visitors from coming to enjoy the event. To all the volunteers; you were absolutely incredible. You all went the extra mile to make our guests and vendors feel welcome. In the next couple of months I will be visiting all the local clubs who helped out by volunteering, to express my gratitude for all you did.
All of this would not have been possible if not for you: vendors, visitors and volunteers!
I hope you will join us again at Hamcation® 2013.
Keep checking this website for additional information through the year.
