President’s Message

Hello. I thought it was about time for a few updates for the 2025 Tampa Bay Hamfest. 

We have some changes In our venue. Nor sure yet how it will affect us. The Strawberry Festival is building a new building in our tailgate area. We may have to start using the land south of the Armory building for tailgate or maybe some other solution but we will have the 2026 Tampa Bay Hamfest there in any case. Also the Armory has been converted from the meeting rooms to a museum but we have other rooms for our forums. We still have a large tailgate area, the Carriage House and the Expo building so not a huge difference. Make your plans to come see use in December.
