Can't wait until then. I was there in 2006 and spent 2 & 1/2 hours and had a blast that was part of the reason I got into the local faire here in Sioux City. Tried to come last year for the last weekend on Saturday and bring my kids but the weather wouldn't work out they were unhappy and can't wait until this year. I plan to try and attend earlier this year.

maybe my memory has mistaken me, but is it opening earlier than usual this year? i never remember faire starting in august...

Brother Gregory

The last couple of years its started around Labor day weekend and Labor Day is earlier in September this year.

TKM

ah... so i see. well, that means a longer faire season, doesnt it?

KCRF always starts on Labor Day weekend.  This year Labor Day is September 1, so the start date for the weekend is still in August.  Doesn't change either the length of the run (still 7 weekends) or the start - it just looks a bit weird because of the way the calendar works this year.

Hello there!

I am planning to head to the KCRF this fall and am wondering if there is a gathering place for R/F members.  I will be living in Omaha, so making the run is a lot easier than driving from, ya know, Fargo.  Thank you all!

Cheers!  Doc

You are right TKM, in all the years I've worked KCRF, the only gathering place I've ever known about or participated in was when AFR used to do their yearly invasions.  Then, we'd meet at a vendors booth who was also on AFR.  That hasn't happened in a very long time though.

so, are any KCRF vendors on these forums?

I'm quite looking foreward to kcrf hope to meet many of you there.

Doc Tyma

Would it be worth setting up an R/F meeting location for each of the weekends?  I know, at MNRF, it is typically by the Meade booth just after first cannon, so if such a place might exist at the KCRF site, maybe something can get started.  Just a thought ... but a mighty good one, m'thinks!   ;D

Brother, I would love to join, but that is the weekend I am planning on heading to MNRF to see peeps.  If anyone is going to KCRF opening weekend, please meet up with this man!  Perhaps you can scout a proper permanent meeting place for R/F peeps for the rest of the fest?
