IMHO, this is the BEST show going. Not as many vendors as Aberdeen, in the past, but more than any other Eastern US show, and growing fast every year. Also much better organization than any show I have ever attended. They totally have it down to a science and it is a fun place to be. For both the buyer and seller there isn't a better place, I know people who come every year from as far as Michigan and don't blink an eye at the distance from home. Let's hear from some distant attendees, maybe they come from even further away? JT out

I think that NOS parachute is for covering cord wood, but what they hey, just ty it tight to my hand truck and make sure I make it clear of the basket... :jumpin:[thumbzup] OH BY THE WAY TO ALL ... !!!... THE HELICOPTER IS COMING SUNDAY!!!!!!! maybe a blackhawk or heuy we have had either in years past, all hurdles have been jumped and it is a BIG GO!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope they miss the balloon :) It wil hang around for a few hours for all to check it out, we had a Blackhawk land hang out and do a few awesome flybys at our annual picnic we do with the Red Ball guys last year, and the 30ish beautiful blond babe pilot really made that bird do a few things, This is a very big event please come on out and enjoy time with us, Remember U are welcome to come friday early AM ONLY if U are working the show OR DISPLAYING a VEHICLE !!!! FRIDAY has been turning fast into a very BIG and special early bird show This is the only way to get to the vendors before everyone else does, and the only way to get in is with a vehicle to display or actually work the show, all others will be turned away until saturday... NO PUBLIC YET ! and this is the biggest hands down show that has thousands of John Q public buying everything they can get there hands on, if U are a vendor U do not want to miss this show, we are ALREADY SOLD OUT of MORE than we rented !!!!! BUT it is a BIG fair ground and we are in the process of renting more space !!!!!!!!!!!! This year is going to be the biggest yet for sure... !!!!!

OH DID I MENTION WE are HAVING A SPECIAL GAMA GOAT CATEGORY FOR JUDGING !!!!!!!!!!just an fyi, incase someone was thinking of brining a Gama Goat... And like every year SS is welcome to pick and judge a vehicle for this site and offer an award if U guys want, it is an open invitation every year....

Minor detail that the show might consider. Let the vehicles park before registering. I got caught in a jam with a few other vehicles last year while the people registered. Kind of hairy with so many people walking around and trying to back out of the spot they told me to go to before parking the truck on display.

Great show, as it aleays has been. I have a handful of newbies to the MV hobby coming too.
