[MR] Pennsic land grab

[E. L. Wimett]

Yes, but you get that tag AFTER you troll into site and then go to the 
merchant office.

The key issue is the wording that says "You may not drive into the 
campground . . ."

For various reasons we have never tried to set up the shop before Sunday or 
even Monday in the past.  With the shorter war and promises of help in set 
up on Saturday afternoon by folks from land agent parties who were planning 
on express check in and having their own camps set up by noon or one on 
Saturday, it seemed a good idea to plan on getting on site around three on 
Saturday to set up at least the BIG sales marquee.  (That one always makes 
me wish for a couple of elephants a la Dumbo!)

Now looking like that is NOT such a good idea . . .  Psigh. . .

In recent years, merchants have been issued a special parking tag for their
vehicles that marks them as merchants so they can go in and set up in the
merchant space first thing.
