BSCC- NH Spring Dustoff

[Karl Haakonsen]

Hello Bay State Corvair folks....

It will be at least a couple of years before I drive my Corvair 
anywhere. I was thinking of bringing my family to the dustoff so I can 
gawk at a bunch of Corvairs. It would have been awesome to get Ray and 
Kathy's house and see if there were someone with room in their Corvair 
to accommodate us to ride to the show. However, even if someone were to 
be so accommodating, it wouldn't be practical, and there's no way I can 
get the entire troupe to Milford by 7:45 in the morning unless our lives 
depended on it.

Anyway, what could you tell me about the show as a spectator. How many 
Corvairs are expected to be there (i.e. is it worth the trip for someone 
who's not driving a Corvair just to check out the cars with his wife and 
two wee ones aged 8 months and 22 months)? When does the show end? Will 
there be anything else going on (i.e. food, other attractions that will 
be helpful to amuse the rest of my family)?

I know the area, though I've never been to the Hopkinton Fairgrounds, I 
have driven through that part of New Hampshire on I-89 about a thousand 
times and I figure that it's probably about an hour and a half from Boston.

Anyway, thanks for indulging my questions. I do have a few shows I'd 
like to get to this season, but as I will be a spectator only and I will 
be using rare family time on weekends, I want to choose wisely (and want 
to maximize my Corvair exposure).

Karl
