A very special "Thank you" to the Stanton Auction Service for their financial support in sponsoring this event. Steve received the prestigious "Founding Fathers Award" presented by the Indiana Chapter and it is well deserved. The facility was outstanding for the sale and swap meet and the educational displays of phonographs captured the interest of members and visitors. It was one of the largest sales ever for Phonovention and business was brisk. Over 60 tables displayed the wares of vendors for the Friday and Saturday sale. Many interesting machines, parts and records filled the tables with a few bargain-prices items changing hands. It was good to see vendors and friends from Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Missouri, Pennsylvania and perhaps more. The central location is accessible to all. Informative demonstrations and discussion seminars were held in the afternoon. The banquet and evening talks were well attended. Over 50 members enjoyed the program and very tasty and affordable evening meal. It was a festive occasion and the party room at the LaQuinta was filled with phono enthusiasts who enjoyed Greg Kline's tasty home brew and our good Wisconsin beer and other selected beverages and snacks brought for the occasion. Plans are in the works for Phonovention 2009 to be held the first week in August at the fabulous Kruse facility. Hats off to the Indiana Chapter and all who helped put this grand event together.
