I am still getting things organized so I might be able to get to Lima on Thursday July 28, 2022. Does anyone know what time the gate will be open, and vendors are set up?

I don't remember how long it will take to drive from Newark, Ohio to the fairgrounds in Lima. I want to get there shortly after it opens spend about 3 hours or so and leave. I don't think I will able
to get around much more than 3 hours, on my feet and walking on pavement.

Thank you,

Garry-

They may have a shuttle running this year. That would be something useful, because that fairgrounds is so spread out. Come and visit me in the Rabbit barn. You can sit behind my booth and rest up any time you need a break.

2009? I went to Lima for an NTA show. Was a good un. Bobtailed in with a semi tractor. Left my trailer up at Findley in a truckstop with a lock on the kingpin. At first the guy at the gate wasn't going to let me in. called somebody. Finally let me pay camping fees. Real nice facility there.

I'm hoping to get there a couple days early and help set up if needed. Really looking forward to the road trip!
