I will be bringing a large group of kids for their first Bonnaroo experience. I have been going from the first year and want to give something back. I will be bringing my limo-shuttle with a trailered Harley davidson. I know the trailer will probably not be allowed so I need a place to stash the trailer. I want to bring my Harley into the venue so I can get in and out for food runs and such. Does anyone have any input or ideas that may help me? I will be working a booth in center roo so maybe I can plead my case using that card. Please help me find a spot for my trailer. Thanks!

I am pretty sure that they do not allow motorcycles in the venue. I remember someone asking about this last year. You need email the Bonnaroo people and check.
You may want to try the local storage facilities, usually they have areas for people to store their rv's extra cars and such. If nothing pans out maybe you could ask them for a discount seeing you are adding to the community business scene by working for a vendoe. Hint you MAY want to say that you are *apart* of the vendor ( with vendors permision of course).
If that doesn't work last resort polish up your game plan and contact the Business chamber of Coffee county. Maybe the good folks of the chamber know of a business that has a convient spot for you.
If all else fails give Mayor Pennington a call. He has an open door policy and from what I've read and heard he would do anything to help you. I figure this last resort would be more successful for you seeing he may suggest a person that is a member of the camber of commerce for you to contact.
Good luck and good for you giving back and keeping the journey going!
Yeah I was like what the flippin flap jacks in sandusky is that all about?
But he really is a nice guy, I read an article where he gave the interviewer his personalhome number and told him to call the mayor if he needed a meal or a hot shower during the festival. Pretty cool to me, seriously. The Mayor (according to the article) has His very own personal Coffee County collection/historia memobillia collection. Sounds pretty dedicated to the County all around.
I have no worries at ALL that he will assist you. Heck Id be shocked if he didn't put it in his drive way for a few days hehehehe ya neva know!
(And guys I do make sure my two cents are worth their value before I throw em out there)
Good luck, I live in jax, so I can't help you out, but just adding my 2 cents. Coffee county might be like Jacksonville where the county (duval) is the same as the city. So I guess the mayor of Jacksonville works all of Duval county. But we never call him the mayor of duval county. I'm not sure if there are a lot of City/Counties like this. But thought I would add what my dad always calls the quest for knowledge. Ha, I really hated that saying as a kid because it normally meant it was time for school work.
For some reason in the last decade, most TN counties have changed their executive's title from County Executive to County Mayor. I have no idea why, I guess they just think it sounds better.
Edit: As of July 1, 2003, the TN State Constitution redesignated all County Executive as "County Mayors." No reason or change in executive powers were included, just a title change.
Sorry this is of no help with your actual problem.

Capttrip, I live in Manchester (Can hear the music from my house if the wind is blowing right) and I can probably help out. I am also a school teacher that works with kids and I applaud you for trying to give back. You must be a very courageous person if you are willing to be responsible for all those kids in the Roo. The question concerning the Mayor. Coffee County has a county mayor and a city mayor. Pennington is the County mayor and Betty Superstein is the city mayor. I am aquainted with both of them. (Pennington also owns a restraunt in town called the Jiffy Burger...best burgers in middle Tennessee btw.
Capttrip, send me a PM with more details.. I may be of some use. (Of course I will have to ask my wife)
