Looking to expand our range of influence, as well as providing a much needed service, Blackhawk for several years has been holding swap meets in the railroading hotspot of Northwest Indiana.
We now hold these three times a year, in January, April and October, always on a Sunday. Go to our Schedule page for upcoming dates.
Meets are held at American Legion Post 66, 132 N Wiggs St, Griffith, IN 46319. The hall opens around 9 AM for vendor setup and opens to the public at 10 AM. Selling runs from 10 AM to 2 PM and then we offer a presentation on railroading, usually covering Indiana.
8' Vendor tables are $15 each, however the first table is FREE to Blackhawk members. Click here to join us.
TABLES SELL OUT QUICKLY. The size of the hall is limited, and our floor plan allows for easy movement rather than packing in as many tables as possible. We do maintain a waiting list, but for best results, order and pay for your tables as soon as you can.
Requests for tables should be directed to:
