It's open to the public. It's about $4.00 or $5.00 bucks admission.

This is one of the smaller shows, but fisrt in the area.

Tom, The Berea show is a Division 4 (I think) show. It is at the Fairgounds and fills 4 large buildings. It's a two day show, Sat and Sunday, around the first weekend in Oct.

WHAT AN AMAZING COINCIDENCE!!!!

My son lives in Maple Heights. I was there this past weekend and needed to pick something up on an emergency basis. We went to some place in Parma - and I had never heard of Parma before. And here it is again in this thread!

The icing on the cake though is that my son just told me that he accepted a high-school math teaching position in Berea!!!! Never hear of that before either - and here it is in the same thread.

Sorry to jump in with nothing more that a personal story but I just had to!

BTW: any Berea residents or teachers reading???

Tom - the Parma show

Walt - I grew up in Maple Heights. I lived there for 40 years. Just moved to Seven Hills, which is right next to Parma, 2 years ago. What street does your son live on? I know Maple Heights like the back of my hand.

I guess I can't make it now either, (Parma) but the Berea show will be top priority. Sounds like a lot of guys will be making that one. Thanks, John

I just got back from an empty parking lot. The show is on Sunday NOT Saturday. I hope no one drove a long distance today. It's no biggy for me only 15 minutes. So for those of you that couldn't make it today you can go tomorrow.
