- Please DO NOT park in the neighbors driveway! Vehicles may be towed at the owners expense or their cars may be moved by the home owner.
- There will be a greeter at the end of the driveway, they will hand out materials, stamp passports (road stand tour), and direct you where to go.
- Once inside the event, there will be a market booth stand where you can check-in, ask questions, or purchase items.
- Event staff & volunteers will be wearing orange shirts with our logo and says “volunteer” on them, please feel free to ask them for help, guidance, or anything else!

- We also have first-aid kits on-site and there will be staff/volunteers who are trained in first-aid.
