anybody know if you can park a RV at the convention and keep it there for the weekend?

by **Charles** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 12:36 pm

No-one you know in the shots.

I'm sure you can park an RV there, or we can find somehere you can. I'll take the heat if there are any problems.

Man, Charles is really whoring his post count! He just upped it by almost 5%!!!

by **Folic_Acid** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 2:43 pm

Peacemaker, I'd bet that you probably could, and nobody would care much. If not, there's lots of nearby shopping centers with big parking lots where you could stay. If worse comes to worse, Bull Run Regional Park has RV hookups, and it's not too far away.

Oh, and Charles, stop spamming the forums.
