LOCATION: WRIGHT STATE UNIVERSITY, COLONEL GLENN HIGHWAY, BEAVERCREEK, OHIO.
Soon, Wright State University will be putting on the annual Wright Brothers Day celebration and we're considering an antique bike show as part of the event. Now, I'm trying to figure out if there is any interest from our CABE members nearby that want to enter the show.
It's crucial I have an idea how many entries we might have to justify the space it will take up and the effort to put it on.
The show would not be judged and certainly no swap meets. This is purely for educational purposes and would be a great chance to show your prized machine to the general public. You might even bring some new comers into the hobby. At the very least, people would know more about a piece of American history (cycling, the birth of aviation, and Ohio's past industries). The event will be held inside the Wright State University Student Union on October 8th from 10:00-2:30. The time is NOT set in stone as of yet.
Again, I'm only trying to get an estimate of how many people would show up. If the show gets the green light, I'll post the official information in the proper subforum.
Thanks! Please reply if you would like to come!
(DO REMEMBER, I see lots of discussion about bringing in younger restorers and collectors. Now is a chance to possibly do that)
