I guess they're having some of the auction in another building next door. First time for that. I guess since there's two auctions this time.
Best Western =About 1 mile further. What rate did Holiday charge? I'm in at BW for $76 per night.

[Bodyman]

there charging me $90, but comes with a breakfast buffet

I talked to the coordinator yesterday again to make sure of a space for a pit for us and he was on it. Today, while I was emailing another member here I got a phone call from Gary the man in charge there asking me what kind of dirt I wanted again for my digging pit. We talked about how big of a space we needed and he has his old boat pond that isn't used there anymore because he has a bigger one now. He said the old pond could be made as large as 30'X60' and leave one side open for access. What I need to know who is going to attend and what they're bringing. Maybe you East Coast guys will want to bring some road trucks and buildings. I don't have anything like that so I'm more geared to the digging part of it.

[SmallHaul]

I'll be bringing: wheeled skid loader, rubber tracked loader, 2 tonka dt's, mack dump, dragline & dozer.

[Fireman700]

As a on-road guy, if I don't have have to work at the 15th I'll bring my 2 wreckers, my rigid and a king with van trailer. I know the 16th I'm free so If any of the East Coasters are thinking of going let me know

[ihbuilder]

I'll be bringing All my stuff running or not but seems the dump truck will get the most use maybe the tractor and lowboy for moving equipment ( by the way $50.00 / hr )

[Fireman700]

Steve if you get your dump stuck the tow company charges $250.00 for a Medium hook and for the heavy hauler its $450.00 payable before the truck is set back down on its sneakers.

[JAMMER]

I will be coming with my wife and staying at the Best Western and bringing my 1/12 scale Deere excavator. Ed

[BullDog]

I might try to make the event on the 15th. I can bring a tow truck and my green mack. York is about an hour and half from Frederick Md this sounds fun..

I can drive it and hook some chains and pull a building over with it , but still a lot of work to be done

[tc1cat]

I hope to be there on the 15th and possible the 16th. I am planning on bringing my military King, Studebaker, and maybe something else. Still need to make reservations!

Anybody that exhibits on Saturday is usually invited to a small party that evening with food and drink sponsored by the venders. Last year it was at the show in the lobby but two and three years ago we were at a industrial museum in York.
