Are you up for a "how to" seminar?
We will have a schedule for the seminars, and you will get to do yours.
You add a lot to this group and your knowledge is on the top of my list, of who to ask, "how to do something?".

And then just have a running total of "expectations" at the bottom. Whatever works for you. That will really help with planning.

Great!
I believe you just tell them when you check in and they may ask you to set up in a back corner of the park.
No open fires and clean up your spot when your done.
They don't advertise camping, but are not against.
Cost is the show entry price.
Here is a number to call from their facebook page.
(816) 237-8480
Post up what you find out.

Dave with a 66 GMC from northeastern Iowa and Bob from Kansas, in a 64 GMC Burb, pulling a trailer with a running V-12.
That will be fun to watch fire up.
