Heard back finally. Mr. Guidotti is turning me over to another Park Ranger, but because I am in the middle of getting files and stuff transferred from my back up computer to my main one, I haven't had a chance to connect with this guy yet. I doubt highly if this weekend is going to happen. I am jammed up on Sunday but I will report back about Saturday. Will post as soon as I get some details.

I think we can scrub the weekend gig, but if anything changes I will post here pronto.
Now if you guys want, we can still meet at the new area and I can show you guys around. One thing I have to establish with the rangers is if there are any particular areas they do not want us to operate in. Until I have that info its a little tricky to plan. I can sure as heck give you guys a tour if you want to do that.

Don't forget about the mines, motors, tanks, and 88s we will also be using. I'm sure they will want to know about that!

Yep, the Saturday after next, but it is not set in concrete quite yet. I should be hearing something soon.

I don't know guys, the 21st isn't looking very promising either. I've yet to hear from our Ranger contact even after two emails. Stay tuned, I guess.

Tomorrow is a bust as far as meeting with the park ranger as he never got back to me. If he contacts me some time tonight, I will post ASAP. Otherwise I can just meet with him and get some questions answered.
What I am going to find out is: -Are there areas of the park where they absolutely do not want us to operate. -Where can we assemble. -Can we use era vehicles. -Will we have overnight privelages. -Can we operate and have battles at night. -Where do we get out permit and does that permit only cover a specific event. -How soon in advance must we have a permit.
Was also wondering if we've gotten any farther on the insurance angle?

I have insurance paperwork. Need to do some research and should have some answers soon on that.
Also:
- are there some kind of facilities on the camp, i.e. barracks for doing overnight that may be available and restrooms. - Drinkable water - Use of smoke - use of flares (red is usually a no-no for example)

[glow=red,2,300]Tomorrow at 10am![/glow] Just heard from Ranger Vierra. I am going to assume that he'll be at the park entrance just south of the 7 Mile Bridge on the west bank of the river, hopefully this will be verified before tomorrow.
I beleive there are a couple of outhouses near the river road, but nothing else. There may be water at those points also, but I've never seen or used either.
Edit: [glow=red,2,300]We will be meeting at the park office at 9 Mile.[/glow]
