Will meet up to leave with the caravan and definitely want to do the VIP parking. It is so worth the extra $20 dollars. We will be bringing shrimp dip, maragarita and rum balls, boiled peanuts, marinated chicken skewers and jello shots along withe neccessary libations for about three different kinds of shooters. Staying at the Battlefield Inn if anyone wants to drive to the lowes parking lot as a caravan from there.

Here's my question: How many people have committed to meeting in the Lowes parking lot?? (You can pencil me in as 1)
What time are we rolling out? With all the posts, it's very hard to get a sense of scale for this shindig!

Well that's up to 4 so far.

Thats better than 1. That would be a sad caravan.Sanjuro's tequila wrote:Well that's up to 4 so far.

Sounds like a plan Linda, we should shoot for about 11:30??? at Lowes?Carolinadreamin' wrote:Right now the information I have on the lots is this:
The general admission lots will open at 2:30. The premium lots have traditionally opened well before that time. I think we should meet at noon.
My suggestion would be to meet at the Lowes in Gainesville. Here's the address for those that need to mapquest it or plug it into the ir GPS:
13300 Gateway Center Dr, Gainesville
It's about a mile and 1/2 from Nissan it's just a sraight shot on Wellington Rd.

Meeting at 11:30?
Departing from Lowe's at what time?
BNers in the caravan so far:
Sanjuro's tequila
BFinnsUp
backstreets77
BftFan
docandjeanie
Carolinadreamin' (since she made the recommendation, I can only guess she's in it too!)

I think one can assume they mean "meeting at". And if one can assume "docandjeanie" aren't handgliding in, we can certainly add one more vehicle to the list for them!SkoolGrl<3 wrote:

I plan for our group of 5-6 veh to leave Fredericksburg around 10:30, we are staying at the Comfort Inn Suites and will possibly try to swing in and drop bags off there 1st but should be ready around noon. Ill call when we are close to see what the caravan status is so that we can hopefully meet up 
Posted: August 25, 2008 3:01 pm
Y'know... I guess depending on who's going to general parking and who's going to VIP parking, we might have two different groups; thus two different departure times.Sanjuro's tequila wrote:I think one can assume they mean "meeting at".
