- DEALER TABLES WILL GO FAST!
Sunday October 18, 2026

- Admission is $5.00

- SAME NEW LOCATION
- We're excited to be STAYING in our new location on the Owens Community College Findlay campus, in their Education and Wellness Center building.
- The address is 3200 Bright Road, Findlay Ohio.
- DIRECTIONS:
- Google maps will take you the longer route to the front of the campus on Bright Road, then you enter the campus and take the beltway road around to the venue.
- But if you get Google maps driving directions from your location once you're in Findlay, they'll give you the more direct route to the back of the campus, taking you in from Crystal Rd., where the building is.
- (This link is an example -- https://maps.app.goo.gl/Xc1oVYz7pAoUT5FS6 )
- Hotel and restaurant suggestions remain as in previous years, at the I75 / Rt 224 / exit 159 area.
