We were kind of eying up this event. It is about a 6 hour drive for us though. We were wondering if there is going to be a Friday night set up?

 

[benny z]

i believe that may be a possibility. i know they reserved a block of rooms at the holiday inn in case folks from out of town needed a place to stay. i would email the address posted and ask about friday setup...

 

[lcashman]

Friday night setup is available and there is a block of rooms reserved for those traveling to fragtoberfest. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.
Thanks!!
Leland
