Nick, I will get you the swap info tomorrow, I can't remember the amount offhand.

Last year we had about 197 cars there.

And there are a few campgrounds in the area. Let me see what I can dig up for you in that area.

obus--one of these years, it just may work out.

Hey Nick,
I'm from Altoona,PA. We usually cruise down after work on Friday night. You can camp right on the show grounds. The local fuzz likes to sit across the road and watch all night, so we all walk down to a local bar/restraunt and hang out there. (That way they can't hit us up for drinking and driving.) They have a good Friday night fish fry meal.
As a swap meet, I have to say this show is as good as Super Jam at Maple Grove. Dealers and vendors give better prices because they don't have to make up for a huge vending fee. And as usual, I'll have some parts, toys and collectibles for sale!! Hope to see ya all there!!
Keep on Turckin'

Rain expected on April 30th. I'm still coming in my stock '77 'Rocco(I'm local) but Accuweather says high of 59F and about 10 hours of precip that day. That's also the weekend of the Hershey Hillclimb which is always a blast to watch. Let's hope the weatherman is wrong!

Just remember, the weatherman is about the only job you can screw up every day and still have a job Monday. Laughing
