For those of you who travel Rte 11 / 81 into Carlisle from the turnpike, you might want to watch this. Traffic alert. Hopefully you can see it, if not, Lance can you post it so everyone can see it?
And according to my son, the turnpike is heavy under construction from Blue Mountain to Carlisle and vice versa. Widening the road. Heavy police presence too so watch your speed. Unmarked cars.

    Default Question for Lance about Wednesday arrival.

    Hopefully Lance will see this and be able to respond....

    I plan to arrive Wednesday afternoon, and purchase my event fun field pass. Will I be able to set up /stake down my ez-up canopy in a non reserved spot and leave it overnight in a half- down position? Or do I have to wait until Thursday morning to do that?

    Can't wait for the fun!

    It is my understanding you can only do that in a reserved space IF the ez-up canopy is lowered and properly secured. Even if you could leave it in a non-reserved spot it will not hold your parking space.

    I've done it, along with hundreds of others, for years. However, I'm always there until 5, and back the next morning by 7am...

    Vette's almost packed, got my best jorts on, and just about to hit the road. See ya on I-81 southbound from NY! Look for an Arctic White C5.

    Safe travels, everyone.

    Safe travels! If you have time upon arrival can you post any traffic issues encountered on 81. Our group leaves tomorrow morning from central CT.

    Can't wait, couldn't go last year. Leaving tomorrow morning 3:00 AM, coming in from SE Mass. on 78, stop for breakfast at Shady Maple in East Earl. Should get into Carlisle around 12:00 noon. Next year my daughter is getting married, so won't be able to go.Might see if the hotel will take reservations for 2018 !
