* * * Changes to vendor layout this year * * *

In order to accomodate more vendors, we've made some changes to our show layout. Vendor spaces are now 10'x20' for $11 each. This means if you're a small vendor who only needs room for a few parts or a small easy-up, you don't need to get a larger 20'x25' space for $16. If you're a larger vendor who needs more space, you can still get multiple consecutive spaces for $11 each. We hope this will help fit in more vendors as we typically sell out of spots early each year!

* Due to the possibility of camping field being closed due to rain, we will have no pre-registration for camping this time.  If available, camping in the field will be on a first come, first serve basis.
* Camping in the field is limited to tent and VW campers only.  Depending on the condition of the field and the weather forecast for the weekend, small, light weight vintage and pop-up campers may also be allowed in the field (This is at Volks Folks and Camp Jordan officials’ discretion).
* The camping field will open at Noon on Friday.  The gate will be closed from 11 PM Friday until 6 AM Saturday and 11 PM Saturday until 6 AM Sunday.  Vehicles will only be allowed in and out of the field in emergencies during these times.  Vehicle trailers must be stored in the lot next to the camping field.   Local noise ordinance must be observed (keep the noise down after 11 PM)

As in the past:

* There is limited power and water available in the field, first come, first serve.  Bring your own drop cords and splitters!
* All camp and cooking fires must be off the ground!
* No generators after 11 PM.
* All dogs must be on a leash and owners MUST clean up after them.
* Camping fee for the field is $5 per person for the weekend (plus spectator fees if applicable).

Camping in the RV Area:

* RV sites are on a gravel lot and have water and power hook ups and are within walking distance of the show.
* You may set up camp in the RV area beginning on Thursday.
* Camping fee for the RV area is $10 per site, per night (regardless of the type or size of the RV or the number of people camping).  Tent camping is allowed in this area, but the same $10 per site, per night fee applies.  Spectator fees are separate.

Also on Facebook.

Won't there be a reunion next year, just make sure it's not the same day as BAP. Then you won't have to miss 2 reunions

Got off from work and looking forward to it. Hope to have my bus ready by then.

I just found out that the school play my daughter is in is Friday night. So I'll probably be coming up early on Saturday morning. Save me a spot to park Pippi.

I'm afraid I'm not sure, you may just need to call ahead and find out.
