This is an early placeholder for the 2009 show. Reservations are open online at the Hampton Inn on Trabue.

Two new hotels are likely to be available and they are close by the Hampton. Don't know names of them at the moment.

Hampton reservations will go quickly.

What follows is the text of a recap of the 2008 show that was sent to all via email. I am pasting it here to give those who have not made up their minds an insight into LCC.

"The Kentuckians filtered in on Thursday afternoon, set up
camp in front of the Hampton Inn, and enjoyed a constant stream of visitors
from dozens of states and Canada.
Friday dawned with sun and warmth. People scrambled to join cruises to the Air
Force Museum, Mid-Ohio race track, Hocking Hills State
Park, Berlin Amish country and
some just wandered on their own.

Most of the Kentucky
folks went to Hocking Hills. Then it happened. Sixty one cars left for the lodge from the
Conkle’s Hollow rest stop parking lot.
All but Sam Jackson whose fuel pump hiccupped. Never fear, just across the street an
elderly woman offered a phone (no cells here), and the key to the garage. Then she helped push the cobra through some
gravel so they could jack it up and convince the pump. She was awarded an honorary KCC membership on
the spot. Sam and Juan raced up to the
lodge and joined nearly a hundred Londoners at the buffet. They arrived to cheers and colorful language.

Saturday is always the keynote day as the tribe is escorted
(260 strong) by the local police from Columbus, Ohio to London, Ohio and everyone
is parked on the streets in show mode.
Hundreds of rides were given in drag strip style to spectators willing
to make a donation to the cystic fibrosis charity. Later, a Superformance cobra winner was drawn
from a drum of ticket stubs in the big tent.
Being there reaffirms something deep inside you about your humanness. Quid pro quo is not the game. You definitely received more than you thought
you would or even should.

Sunday is a morning for hand shaking, a breakfast together
and a return to normal life. Somehow London
just keeps getting better. Next year
there will be two new hotels open close to the existing five. Make a plan to go. It will be a memory to relish."
