We will not turn guys away who behave and work to our goal but we are not to sway the focus of the event.  We are guests and need to honor our host.

Buildings, various products as loads all add realism and is highly encouraged.  So team up with others to make this a good whole experience of mini trucking and construction equipment. If all you have is a tank or other non themed item team up with another Trucker to haul you here or there etc.
Hello Chris & Travis ,
I know I been falling of the grid again since last year , just way to busy with work and private stuff , but I am coming too !

Willy

Plan to bring or buy locally some heavy paper.
Yes we will have the docks

Yes we are encouraged to travel the halls (lower level) during the show.

Travis, that's great! Tell your dad thanks! I'm sure it'll get used. Looks like it would make a good railroad bridge between shows!

Thanks guys, I had given my dad the lumber from a flat bed and he made himself a bridge and mentioned building one for the trucks so I went to town and got him some lumber before he changed his mind.
