FL Wagonfest 2020 - March 27-29th

The spring Turkey Run is March 27-29 (last weekend in March).

I missed last year but I know you guys got the concrete pads next to SOFASST. Would you want to do that again?
Asking as Tim is getting ready to reserve theirs. After the holidays will get on with the look for a block of rooms for us. I like the place we have been for the last 5 or 6 years, but they keep jacking up the rates every year, so curious about other opportunities in the area that are close to the track.

TIme to discuss options is now.

I missed the show last year but would like to see pads used again.

The hotel is always fine with us taking over their back patio so that is a plus The first year I went I signed up for their rewards program so I always get a cheaper room than they normally offer.

That said it wouldn't bother me if the location changed but I know some are against it.

Depends on what the rate is, I guess.

I'll probably go. My work situation is changing and I can actually have weekends again - possibly.

I am going this year. Looking forward to it.

I believe the other motels have raised their rates as well. If we can find something for a bit less in the same neighborhood I would not have an issue with it. I am not crazy about Hiltons, but they advertise a guaranteed rate of 10% less than their competitors. I do not know if there is one nearby. Driving over 5 miles is a bit far. I liked the pads.

Don't want to piss off the cook

I'll show for at least one day with my stock 1991 OCC. Last year I learned a lot from this group and was blown away by some of the modifications y'all have made.

well, after the holidays conclude we will get on it post haste. I have also had a re-alignment at work and unfortunately, cannot take vacation willy nilly when I feel like it before so I have to coordinate with my co-workers which I won't start working with until the new year.....so fingers crossed as I have like 3 weekends next year that are non-negotiable for me.

put in a group rate request for 20 rooms. will see what comes back. One econo lodge about 9 miles away was only 50 a night, but will see where the rest fall in.....

Pads please (2)

Thanks Sprocket

I fronted $100 and got 4 pads, so that' good for 16. I believe that's how many were bought last year. THey are bundled in with the SOFASST guys so they probably got 2 or 3 themselves.. Waiting to hear from Robert, he was taking the point to call the hotels, but believe we will either be in the same one as usual or the LaQuinta across the street (where we had the BBQ the first time).

I have penciled this time off, looking forward to meeting the Southern group.
