Default Snohomish Regionals

A few, well hopefully a bunch of us Canadians are planning on coming down to the good ol' US of A for the regionals. I am planning on bring a small travel trailer and coming down on Thursday night. What generally happens as far as camping and festivities?

Russ - you have plenty of space for dry camping at the field - no hook ups. On the festivities, I will work with Francis to get a flier up quickly. I don't know if he is planning anything or not.

I still plan to make it down but I am looking for a co-pilot for the 14 hr drive.

Patrick Stubbs is asking his parents if he can come along ... he is one heck of a freestyle pilot. Anyone else from Alberta wanting to go, please speak up!

FWI
To Cross the border you will need a Drivers License with a birth Certificate at minimum to cross from Canada to the US. A passport is however the best. Children can cross with a birthcertifcate only as long as they are acompanied by a legal gaurdian.
The Canadain dollar is at $.97
Things could not be better!
