APBA Driving School and Testing May 19-20 in Dayton- get a room!

posted Thu, 02/09/2012 - 2:29pm in Official APBA Communications
Region 6 Chairman William T Noonan offers a VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT DAYTON TEST & TUNE (APBA DRIVER SCHOOL) If you plan to attend testing or the APBA Driving School in Dayton, OH on May 19-20th, you need to start trying to locate motel accommodations ASAP! The Comfort Inn across from the Air Force Museum only had 13 rooms. Most of those will be for staff and students. There is a very large ham radio convention in town that same weekend, so rooms will be hard to find. I would suggest the exit on I-75 just north of Needmore Road. There is a motel of every kind there!
