Parks staff: Outdoor Expo moving to Hope City Center Jan. 9–10, new name proposed
Summary
Staff told the Parks board the Outdoor Expo will move from the fairgrounds to the Hope City Center on Jan. 9–10 and the center has agreed to provide space at no charge; the committee proposed renaming the show 'Terre Haute Indiana Boat RV and Outdoor Adventure Show.'
Staff told the board the Outdoor Expo will return next year with a new venue and date. “We are moving the venue from the fairgrounds now to the Hope City Center,” the staff member said, adding the center is allowing use of the space at no charge. The committee has met several times and is proposing new dates of January 9–10 to attract RV and boat dealers who were unable to attend the spring event the prior year.
Committee staff said they are also working on changing the event name and on a committee vote to finalize it; the working title given in the meeting was 'Terre Haute Indiana Boat RV and Outdoor Adventure Show.' The board did not record a formal vote on the venue or name in the transcript excerpt; staff said further committee action is required before the change is finalized.
