Flamingo Net will host a walking 2m Fox Hunt
Good afternoon my friends , I hope you are all doing well.
We are getting close. It is almost time for the 2017 50th Anniversary Tropical Hamboree. The show is scheduled for Feb 3rd & 4th. We have had a great response this year, not only from previous and new Vendors that will be participating the this years show, but also from guests and patrons from all over. This show is a special show as we have dedicated it to our founder Evelyn Gauzens.
Just to let you know, we have been advertising on multiple radio stations, Gordon West has been promoting our Hamfest on his show, and there are multiple ads in the pasts month in both the Miami Hereld and El Nueno Herald,( The spanish version.) as well as the January edition of QST.
We have also sent out over 7000 brochures to all the hams in the 5 counties that surround us, Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Collier and Monroe and have been receiving a great response for tickets.
This Years show will be held at the War Memorial Auditorium in Ft. Lauderdale Fl. They have been advertising our show on their main Marquis as well as on all there social media pages and at all events held at the auditorium. There is going to be an inside show as well as an outside tailgate section, hourly forums, a fox hunt, QSL card checking along with a fully operational HF station, much, much more as well as hourly drawings for some great door prizes. The GRAND PRIZE this year will be a YAESU FT-857D Multi-Band Radio. This is going to be a huge show.
Regardless of how many vendors we get, the show will not be complete unless we have YOU there representing YOUR company. The show is almost 3/4 sold and we are expecting a huge crowd of patrons, We still have space available and would love to have you at this great and exciting show. Please visit our website, HAMBOREE.ORG where you can find all the great details . You may also contact me directly at any time.
We look forward to seeing you in Ft.Lauderdale…
73’s and have a great day.
