Just wanted to let attendees know that this is a fairgrounds and not a
campground. It is advisable to bring additional electric cords, water
hoses, and some blocking may be advantagous. In some locations blocking may
be necessary to obtain being level.

Too late. I’m in. Georgia. I have hose and electric cord but not much blocking.
We can probably find some at Home Depot if a lot of people need it

Matt and Emery,
It should be noted that the following went out in an email to every attendee that was registered as of March 15th. In the portion below labeled "Things to bring" it states specifically "Additional electric cords, water hoses, and some blocking. This is a fairgrounds and in some locations blocking may be necessary to obtain being level."
So this is the second time this info has been made available to you.

Larry,
I personally believe that Kim does a really good job, but transmissions of information are often less than perfect. This isn't the only thing we didn't get.
Matt - alongside at Round Bottom Road
Sorry you didn't get the info.
Double check and see that she has your correct email address.

You are making some assumptions that are incorrect. Also, I really don’t need you to tell me that I’m an asshole because I didn’t read a message.
