Thursday morning for me.
Prelude,
What time are you leaving from Rochester Hills? I live at Squirrel and South Blvd and our group will be leaving on Wednesday evening... we should get a bunch of people together and hit up Coney Island or something for dinner and take off all around the same time.
I'll be there Thurs day morn and will also be in the inforoo camp only section. I'm staying the night Wednesday in Murfreesboro so if anybody wants to caravan in let me know.
Thursday morning I believe, but we'll be doing camp by car. Though, there's an off chance we may risk the sh*tty location and just truck on in there Wednesday night. Time will tell I suppose!
Leaving Fairfax, VA late Tuesday night...driving straight through to Murfreesboro to stay with a friend Wed night, then heading down the road to Roovile early Thursday morning.
Our plan is to leave Oklahoma City early Wednesday morning and drive the 11-hour trip all day. We hope to get to the farm to set up camp, have a few beers and get some sleep Wednesday night. I have a question, though: Have any of you set up your camp in the dark? Was it difficult? Last year we set up as the sun was rising Thursday morning so it wasn't a problem, but if dark tent-pitching (no, not that type, sillies) is frustrating or difficult, we may wait and roll in Thursday morning.
dark-tent-pitching is the best!!! To make it even more fun, first you need to get EXTRA-drunk, then do it!
No seriously, it's not that difficult. I usually just flip on all the lanterns and flashlights, crack a brew, smoke a bowl and go to work. I've set up in the dark at the roo a few times. IF you screw anything up, you can just fix it in the morning. All you really need to set up wednesday night is your tent and a sleeping bag if it becomes difficult.
I plan on being set up and drunk off my ass by Wednesday midnight.. just like last year.. I really don't care about the bad camping.. I like relaxing thursday. and I don't mind the walk, I'm at centeroo all day anyway
I might be a little too ambitious here, Me and my buddy leave Charlotte at 2 am Wednesday night/Thursday morning and I'm planning on getting in line around 9 or 10 am, so probably be set up by noon... hopefully.
Leaving Columbia by 1:00 pm Wednesday, arrive Manchester by 7:30, drive it on in. Should be set up by midnight even with a wait. Then I'm getting my sleep on, bigtime. There just ain't much after that...
A good cheap single burner propane lantern is a great investment for your nighttime arrival, especially if you have a hook or table to elevate it with.
Or put it on the roof of your car. You'll be fine. Watch for poison ivy on that fenceline, though!
most likely sometime thursday night for me... i will have family in town wed and i want to get a bit of sleep before embarking on a 12 hour journey all by my lonesome

i went two years ago and got in thursday morning and sat in traffic till 1 am friday so last year i got in wed at about 10 am and chilled in the walmart parking lot, and then they let us in the grounds wed night but locked us in to our campgrounds, and im thinking of doing the same thing this year in hope that they let me in wed night again like last year
