Two hours of traffic to get in. Disorganization at the donation area near the actual entrance. Parking inside the show was not organized. But other than that it was a great show with TONS of people and cars

Seems like the FB page is down, probably a good thing. I just wanted to share this, hoping people see it and it takes some of the edge off.

1- the dirt coming in- the airport did that 2 days prior. We didn't know it, they thought they were helping even something out. Miscommunication.

2- parking inside the event. We had 35 volunteers raise they hands to help park. 9 showed up. 9. Parking 5000 cars with 9 people is almost impossible. Because of this. Spectators got spread throughout. Unfortunate. But it happened. Thanks to those of you that did come, we know you worked really hard, and couldn't have done it with out you. We owe you big time

3- the airport, in conjunction with the police department shut the event entry down at 12:30. It was deemed unsafe to have anymore cars come in.

4- multiple 100+ car caravans made it absolutely positively insane. As they all got there at once. And caused chaos.

5- we did not anticipate more than 4000 cars. We had parking for 4000. We parked about 5000, and probably turned away another 1000.

6- sorry about the food. We had 3 food vendors this year, but they had enough food for 6000 people. 10000 showed up.

7- we raised over $20k for the jimmy fund- final numbers this week


Last but not least, thank you for your support, it was nice to see so many of you. And as you know. It's very rare we have issues at an event- it just happened to be at our biggest ever

Thank you again

Guess I missed one hell of a friggin show. Man I wish I could have went

This show was an epic fail in terms of enjoyment factor.
I stayed for an hour then left because it was just such chaos and unorganized.

What i shoulda done was brought some lawn chairs and parked em at the exit.
