Yes you can.
I believe it was 28.00 a night separate from actual rally days.

Hi Bob,

When will the 2014 registration form be available?

Here was our thinking in setting the schedule as it is:

For those who are working (assuming a Mon-Fri schedule), we thought that having the FROG Rally start with dinner on Sunday would give them Friday evening, all day Saturday, and much of Sunday to travel without having to take off days the week prior to the event. Similarly, finishing with a light breakfast on Saturday would give most of Saturday and all of Sunday for travel without having to take off days the following week.

Overall the thought was that those within about 600 miles would only need one week off of work. If we started on Saturday or ended on Sunday, travel would require taking off additional days the week before or after.

That was our thought process, but we'd welcome hearing from anyone who thinks something else would work better.

It does make sense to do it this way for most.

Our problem is not the way the days are situated, it is that they are at the beginning of the month and my wife is an accountant and those are the busy days for her.
Otherwise it is a fine time and I like the amount of time there is to travel because it is just over 1100 miles for me.

Did the Faigrounds have a Verizon 4G signal?

Not today.

My original target date was 3/1, but I'm going to see about moving it up to shortly after the first of the year. When we get back from the western tour I plan to sit down with our IT folks and try to get online registration set up, so that it's not necessary to download, print, and complete a registration form.

We'll send out an e-mail blast in advance to make sure that people know when the registration will be open.

Thanks to one and all who attended, and we hope to see even more next year. Cindy and I just left the fairground this morning (Monday), and I'm at Cummins to have the generator serviced before we hit the road. Today, Tuesday, and part of Wednesday in the office, then on the road for Colorado and points west. We're taking the entire staff with us -- Cindy, myself, and our fur-kid Rascal.

I love my job!

Safe travels Bob and Cindy. You guys did a great job with the rally. The rally dates worked out perfectly with my work schedule. I'm back to work this morning as well.

Yes there is. The Verizon 4G is strong all over the mid-west area. We use it and the signal was super in Goshen.

The fairgrounds also has free wifi but it is limited at times throughout the day due to Frog usage.

Great! That's the nice thing at the rally's, Your time is yours..do what you want when you want to do it.. need to do a little work? no problem. Take a tour or make your own tour. Set up all night around the camp fire or crash early. It is a lot of fun and we'd love to meet you. Hope you can make it.
