Will there be many Sunbeam folks at the Dayton British car show
at Eastwood Lake this weekend, or will most be headed to
Rootstown for the Hillman Centennial (currently underway)?

Well, I found three references in various other club newsletters, and all indicated this week and weekend. One of them also said this:

********
This will be the biggest Hillman meet ever held on the North American Continent-so plan on attending. The meet is also open to Sunbeam sedans and 4 passenger convertibles, all Singers, all Humbers, all Commers and Plymouth Crickets.
*********

To me, that means no Alpines/Tigers. Not that you couldn't drive one there, of course, but that they'd rather see some sedans and 4 passenger convertibles.
And that's fine, too.

The above-mentioned newsletter also placed in in Streetsboro, rather than
the oh-so-appropos Rootstown.

Other factors have influenced our decisionmaking, and it's Dayton (or bust) for us.
