Finding Your Tent Space
Teams that have signed up for Food Tents will be assigned tent spaces. These spaces are spray-painted in yellow/orange. Everything inside the box is yours, you may NOT have anything outside the box. Food Trailers are included in this. On the venue map, you will see spots to park emptied food trailers along the woods line. NO, absolutely NO vehicles can be near waterfront. Coaches, PLEASE make this clear to your parents. Teams will need to bring their own hay if they want it. There are 10 dumpsters onsite. Please may sure your trash finds one of them. Thanks in advance. Food tents on Saturday need to be out by 5pm, so that Sunday teams can get in and set their tents up. Thanks for the cooperation in advance.

Arrival
It is strongly recommended that all food tents are set up Friday BEFORE 4:00 pm or AFTER 7:00 pm. If you cannot get there Friday, you will need to arrive by 6:30 am Saturday to be out of the food tent area by 6:45 am. Please note that NO vehicles will be allowed in food tent area after 6:30 AM. If you come in after that time, parking volunteers will get you as close to tent area as possible but you will need to walk and carry from that point. BUT that is a very busy time with lots of traffic and you might not get close at all- so get there before 6:30.
