Mike,
I'm an ARRL member and can post the next event on behalf of VCF if directed to do so.
That would be great, thanks!

I would like to say I was happy to have attended this event as a seller and buyer. I did reasonably well selling items and picked up a couple things that I needed.
I wouldn’t consider this criticism, but I would say one thing.
To come up with more ways to advertise the event.
To Work with the antique radio guys & post the event in the ARRL calendar website if possible. Through the different places to get the publics attention.
I posted notices and events on Craigslist and Facebook.
I’m looking forward to doing this again at Festivus, hopefully!
Thank you Mike Rosen

We had 20 vendors and dozens of buyers. The weather was great. Logistics worked well. Everyone seemed happy. VCF raised a decent amount of money for warehouse renovations. It seemed like vendors sold enough to be profitable and get some good stuff from other vendors.
I got a lot of great constructive criticism about the event which was most welcome. I took notes on how to improve for next time. This was the first time VCF did a swap meet and we did a decent job. Any other feedback on improving for next time would be great. Either replying here or privately.
We are hoping to do one or two swap meets per year.
I want to thank all the vendors who came. I want to thank all the volunteers who helped with setup, especially Bill Inderreiden who made and put up and took down all the roadside signs. Thanks to Tony, Adam, Dean for getting all the VCF warehouse stuff for sale and taking back at the end. Chris Fala for help in breakdown. And to Corey and his son for helping at the main desk.
