No, but it IS a GFCI receptacle on a GFCI breaker (yes, expensive)

The zip tie is temporary until I get this baby set up...

here is the latest info....

i spoke with shawk this morning and he had gave me this info to pass along to everyone...


prices for the party:

campers - 20.00 per person

non-campers - 30.00 per person

this money just helps with the cost of the food that is brought in for the party night, it helps to pay for the campground allowing us to use their property for the party and it also includes a money to help give the band some money for playing for us, they have to bring their equipment and everything so its nice to just give them a little something to show our appreciation.



the food on the list that SGY started will be food that will be used on friday, sunday nights. i plan to arrive down there on the 15th to get settled in and help prep for the party and stuff before ppl show up on friday.

Ok.. not to sound so nit picky, and I understand the campers paid theirs with their camping fee, but I think making someone pay $30 to show up to party for an hour or two, maybe longer is a little extreme. Perfect example, there was a family that came last year, stayed in a hotel. For them to come to the party this year would cost them $120, for a few hours. That's a little much.

From what I figured up, IF all 50 people on the list shows up.. multiply that by 2, majority of the people who came last year had at LEAST one person with them. At $20/head, we're looking at a minimum of $2,000, just for the party. I think that's more than reasonable.

For someone to show up for a few hours, and have to pay more money because they chose to sleep in a bed rather than a sleeping bag, whether it is because they wanted to, or because they flew into town and can't carry a tent on the plane, seems a little unfair.

It was $10/head per night for camping, and $20/head for the party. With all the donations with alcohol and food, I think that's more than fair..

Remember guys, there's a lot of people that go to this airshow and don't show up to the party. The goal is to get them to come, and charging them 30 bucks to see what everyone looks like is not gonna get them to show.

Just my $.02

I'm sure this year will be a blast, unfortunately I can't make this one. My wife laid down the law this year, she said if I go anywhere it's to visit her Mother in Florida so I guess I'll be staying here in Connecticut this summer lol! I'm sure I'll be texting PK to tell me what's going on though   

I'm already laying the foundation for the next year though

Ohio kinda sort of on the way to Florida.

[DaPup]

Lol Lyric, but then it would imply that I'm considering visiting my Mother in Law which definitely isn't happening
