Homecoming Swap Meet

Post by jeffstag » Mon May 24, 2021 2:44 pm

Hey, I've got a quick logistics question on the swap meet. I've never been there, so I don't know the layout. If I drive in in the morning with a trailer, can I unload it during the setup time and park it somewhere else (I see it says there's no trailer parking at the museum)? I want to have a couple spaces there (not enough to park my giant trailer) and I'm just thinking through the nuts and bolts of how I'm going to unload and then park somewhere not too far away.

Since it's just a one morning meet, I figured I'ld bring a couple tables and maybe a half load of stuff that I can reasonably unload and organize in an hour-ish.

I have seen guys park the whole trailer on the street and sell off the trailer.
