I just sent to following email to Mayor Eades, Stephen Humes, Safety Director, and Peter Tobin, Police Chief, and Todd Eades, Fire Chief...I'll post their response, too, if I get one.
BTW....City of London's website is...
http://ci.london.oh.us/ where you may find phone numbers to all city administrators...including the Mayor, Safety Director, as well as both Police and Fire Chiefs.
I might suggest all of us either send and email, or call and thank them for their hospitality and assistance.
Here's what I just sent....

ATTENTION: Mayor David Eades
I wanted to take the time to thank you all for your hospitality during the recent London Cobra Show. I have read nothing but good comments up and down the internet from event attendees relating to the cordial welcome extended by the City of London, City Administrators, and both Police and Fire Departments. I trust all of us lived up to our end of the bargain and left your city with a good impression of Cobra replica owners, and hot rodders in general.
We certainly couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful city, nor a more beautiful venue to hold our annual event. Simply OUTSTANDING! Please communicate my sincere thanks to everyone involved in working with the Ohio Cobra Club during the organization and operation of the event. The effort put forth was apparent and did not go unrecognized by each and every attendee.
I presently live and work in the Memphis, Tennessee, area, where we are known far and wide for our “Southern Hospitality”. Let me tell you…we’ve got NOTHIN’ on you folks! I could not have been made to feel more welcomed than I was on Saturday, June 24, and I cannot begin to thank you enough.
Mayor Eades, thank you for allowing your city to host the London Cobra Show. I know without your endorsement, the event would not have gone on.
Mr. Hume, thank you for allowing your Police and Fire Departments to help run the event. Again, without your endorsement and cooperation, I know the event could not have gone on.
Chief Eades, thank you and your firemen for their assistance during the event.
Finally, Chief Tobin, a HUGE thank you for your department, your men, and their fine efforts to keep things running safely and efficiently. Believe me when I say the motorcycle presentation was indeed one of the highlights of the day. It was very apparent your comments following the presentation were from the heart, and your invitation to return will be remembered for years to come. What other city would permit burn outs on Main Street…? Unbelievable…THANK YOU. I still wish I could have been a fly-on-the-wall when they first told you about the event…! I would have loved to see the look on your face.
This was my fifth London Cobra Show, and by far, this was the best to date. The hospitality and attitude exhibited by City Administrators, Police and Fire Departments, along with the merchants and vendors involved with the event were excellent. I know I’ve already made plans to come back next year and I’m already looking forward to it!
Again, please convey my sincerest thanks to all involved.
Most sincerely,
Frederick V. Rice
