    I think we’ll have both tasters tickets and cook tickets available this year.  My recommendation if you’re coming for the first time is just to get a taster ticket, in which case you really don’t have to bring much of anything.  People generally bring their own adult beverages and some folding chairs, but aside from that - you don’t need much!

    Yeah, It would be a bit intimidating to cook in front of you guys right out of the gate. I would like to help out with anything else you guys need. I've put on a lot of events in my time so I know how much work goes on behind the scenes.

    @johnnyp you better be there. We’ve gotta test our menu for DizzyFest on these knuckleheads and get some feedback! 

    Besides it will give us some more time to peer pressure @tarheelmatt to road trip to Manassas with us.

    @frazzdaddy don’t worry about skill set, it’s all about the journey. @bgebrent served his brisket with ketchup on Saturday night!  ;)

    Man....

    It's my plan.  I've gotta get momma on board. 

    But we need to peer pressure @tarheelmatt for sure (and everyone else).

    based on what i am told with the consumption it might be safer to leave them at home, they are only 3 and 4 so they cant drive us home yet.

    Rent a camper. It really is kid friendly. Fishing, mini golf and @bgebrent favorite, a petting zoo.  Too bad he got banned.

    Drinks flow (more) when the sun goes down, but the event is extremely family friendly overall.  Multiple forum members bring their children.

    There is RV Share. Maybe a couple of guys could split one. I stayed in the cabins twice. First time and last time.

    I thought about that, but happen to have a new tent that I need to break in. A 3-day bender sounds like a good way to do so. lol

    In my opinion, they are run down and nasty. No running water. No way my wife would be down for spending days in one.  Renting a camper is a better option. Personally, We just stay at the Courtyard. We’ve got enough points that it’s always free.
