Is there media coverage of the event. 
Do I get to wear my broadway suit? 😆

There will be Carnity media coverage for the event, so get the Broadway or even Tuxedos ready.

Perfect time to spice up the after-event party at the campsite.

So maybe this is on everyone's mind 😅; with all the weather predictions of a rainy week, would we start later around 10am to let the sand dry or just enjoy the mud at 8am? 😂
