When you arrive, please go to the NARC registration table in the Hospitality Room to get your name badge and other materials.

The Hospitality Room is located in a room adjoining the parking lot swap meet area. Stop in to register and for complimentary coffee, pop, and snacks. Radio related video tapes will be shown continuously.

Don't miss this! NARC will hold an antique radio auction at the hotel on Friday at 7:30 pm. A nominal sellers fee of 5% on items sold (2% on items bought back) will be charged along with a $1 charge for a bidding number. Items must have a value of at least $25 (minimum bid). To allow everyone the opportunity to consign items, we are requesting a limit of 10 lots per person consigned the day of the auction. If you have more than 10 items, please contact Don Hauff prior to May 9th.

Plan on joining us for a hot buffet lunch on Saturday. This is a very good lunch and the cost is still only $6.00.
