The Director of Ohio’s Dayton Convention Center has just announced his resignation from the position in hopes of finding a new job opportunity. Barton Shaw, who has held the position of Director at the convention center  since 2008, has already taken a new position as the Director for the Grand Wayne Convention Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Until the convention center can find a permanent replacement for Shaw, the center’s Sales and Marketing Manager Michael Cashman has been named interim director. According to Shaw, “We’ve certainly seen our struggles with the economic situation, but all in all, we still bring 20 to 25 conventions a year on average.”
