+BunniK Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 Planning on being there again this year! We might even camp on the grounds instead of at a hotel.....not sure on that yet. Can't wait! Quote
+-Eleanor- Posted February 11, 2010 Author Posted February 11, 2010 Don't forget registration starts on March 1st! Visit www.mwgb.org to register for the event! Quote
No H Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 With registration starting soon, I went looking for last years reservation. It appears that previous registrations are not viewable on the web-site and the e-mail sent to me do not indicate site. Does anyone have any ideas on where this info may be? Quote
+jtbrady01 Posted February 28, 2010 Posted February 28, 2010 You didn't keep copies of last years reservation? Quote

I think you stayed in site A51-8 last year Jon. If that is what you were wanting to know. Quote

+Are_we_there_yet? Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 Area 51 East seems to be the place to be! As of right now there is only 1 campsite left open over there. We so missed everyone last year, can't wait til August! Quote
No H Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 Thanks all. Site 8 again. Although I was a bit surprised how few were available on the 1st... Quote
+The Herd Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 #14 again for me this year. Sharing with 501_Gang. Now...about that shower....Elwood??? Quote

wolfbait Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Never been to the MWGB before but I´m going to see if I can convince my sister to go with me this year when I get home from Paraguay. It´s only a 3 hour drive and we could camp for the few days for 30$! Quote
+gaijinboricua Posted April 16, 2010 Posted April 16, 2010 I have never been on this event before. What do you guys recommend in regards to camping spots to reserve. How about parking? Quote
No H Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 I'm not sure if you are a tent camper or RVer. From the tent camping perspective, I would camp in the general camping area. Unless you are a night owl, that allows you to retreat from the party area. (Area 51). Feel free to join us at Area 51 for as long as you like, though. For the general camping area, as it is a fairgrounds, there isn't much shade. A canopy can be very nice. I believe that general camping allows a car on the campsite. If there are more cars than can fit on your site, there is parking within reasonable walking distance for additional cars. If you are bringing anything electric, watch the specific site notes when reserving. Some require RV adapters to bring them back to normal 15 amp 120 volt outlets. (These are less than $10, but need to be brought along and are available at many places. [Walmart is one.) I know you asked about specific sites, but I don't think I can help with a specific site. Any other specific questions that I could be of assistance with? Quote
DJ Enigma Posted May 3, 2010 Posted May 3, 2010 Since this is such a large event, does anyone ever put out carpool requests or anything of the sort of they plan to attend and have extra seats? Frankly, my own personal dilemma is I'm not entirely sure if my vehicle (an '86 Pontiac Parisienne) will make it to Ohio and back (and even if it did, the gas it would use would be ridiculous!) and since I only know a couple people within a 15-mile radius that are passionate cachers (and are not even sure if they're attending), it may be tricky for me to finagle something. Just thought I'd post and see if this is a common practice for the larger events or is a taboo request. If this is inappropriate for whatever reason, feel free to let me know and I will cease discussion. Quote

I didn't look up where in PA you're from, but I would try NEPAG, TRIGO, PAGA, etc. A local organizations forums will generate a lot more info for you to find locals.
