Last I heard we (meaning anybody staying in the campground) are supposed to hold off on building platforms until further notice from Jac as things might be changing...

#1 - If you are planning on building or rebuilding a platform, please wait with buying materials. There may be some new regulations coming down the pike.  I will let you know as soon as I find out.

#2 - To all of you who have sent in your applications and taken care of your fees, thank you. You make this job much easier.
To those of you who haven't, you will not be allowed to set up until you show me a completed application, and written proof that your fees are paid or otherwise taken care of.

Be Seeing You

We were just out on the grounds yesterday and there were a few people in the camp grounds building away...

Nothing clever to say here.  Not enough caffine yet.

No updates after that.  Might be worth contacting him first.  And this is not his call.  Scott County's call.

Y'all are camping this year? Fun! I myself don't care for camping, but nonetheless the idea of camping at Fest has a certain charm.
Masquerading as a normal person day after day is exhausting.

Camping isn't really my thing either,  :P but back and forth to Coon Rapids every weekend is just a bit much..  ;)

So here's the deal kids.. Steve spoke with Jac this morning..

The rules and regulations.......

If you plan to leave your platform in the campground after the season is over it can be no larger than 10 x 12.

It can be 15 x 15 if you break it down and take it with you at the end of the season..

So there you go..

Yeah, I feel ya... St Paul is far enough but Coon Rapids is even worse!

Speaking of wood....

If anyone has any general crap wood that they want to get rid of please please please call me and maybe bring it to fest with you?  And let Safety Services have it to burn so I can stay warm enough to yell at miscreants all season long. 

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease???

I have lots of branches left over from some tree removal this year. The largest is about an inch and a half in diameter. You're welcome to the whole lot but I'm not schlepping it.

I could bring out some old shipping pallets from work this weekend. I will be assisting working on a booth there on Saturday. Let me know I'll see what I can do for you folks, we don't want anybody catching a cold.
If it weren't for the gutter my mind would be homeless.

pallets burn good & hot... I've stripped paint off a house burning pallets before. :)
