Does anyone know the dates for the National next year in Cleveland?

I saw an article that said Cleveland 2018 Aug 1-5th.

Not to hijack the thread, but does anyone know when the Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will be next year? This could create quite the dilemma.

My Late July through Early September of 2018 is looking like this...

End of July, 2018: Baseball Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony (HUGE Thome fan; assuming he's a 1st ballot inductee)

Early August, 2018: National Sports Collector's Convention in Cleveland, just 45 minutes from my house. Last time I went (first time attending the National) I screwed up and only went for half a day.

Mid August, 2018: My Bachelor Party

Sept. 8th, 2018: My Wedding


That could be the greatest month and a half stretch of my life, but I need the induction ceremony to occur before or after the National.

The answer is obvious, cancel the wedding.

I'm kinda bummed I'm not there....it's just such a long drive!!!!!!

What am I missing...show me something! please!

The 2018 induction ceremony is actually slated for July 29.

While the annual VFW show in Cooperstown was still very good this year, it wasn't the same without some of the usual attendees like Ted Z and Mark Macrae.
