KRK Sr. Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 1967 red DeVille, the judging school will be at the host hotel Friday afternoon. Your latest AACA magazine has a postcard On the cover postage sheet that you can cut out and return to get the registration information as soon as it is ready to be mailed. That sheet also has information to order your 2023 calendar from national. Thanks for your interest, Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1967 Red Deville Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 So let me ask, Is this on Grass like the Hershey meet or on pavement Looking forward to the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlier Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 AACA Nationals held at this facility in the past have been a combination of blacktop parking lots and a few grass areas. The vast majority of the show fields have been on the blacktop parking lots. There is a large grass area down from the hotels near the movie theater that has been used for trailer parking in the past. This layout seemed to work very well for both the AACA National and Grand National events I attended at this facility in the past. Looking forward to attending this national this year. KRK Sr. is the Gettysburg region going to use a similar layout for this year's National? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK Sr. Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 1967 and Charlier, The president's circle of cars and the earliest classes will be on grass. All others will be on black top. This is the same format as the 2020 special Fall Nationals and the Grand Nationals. This year's meet will have the flea market moved to the field next to the fountain and not hiding in the back as before. Flea Market opens Thursday Morning.

charlier Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Karl, What are the hours that the Gettysburg Region workers will be assisting with the parking of trailers on Wed/Thur/Fri before the National? Knowing those hours ahead of time will be a great help to those attending that are bringing trailers. Thanks, Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK Sr. Posted April 22, 2023 Author Share Posted April 22, 2023 Charlie, trailer parking will be from 7 AM until 5 PM each day Wednesday through Friday, 6 AM until 11 AM Saturday. We will have very good signage and people to help you get parked each day. Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get there make sure you head to the hospitality room. Our region members will be there 8 AM till 5 PM, we have some great raffle items and a 50-50 drawing to be held on Saturday. This is one of the great items that you can win. It’s a buddy L truck converted into your fire extinguisher carrier. This truck has been restored and painted with AACA logo by one of our members and then donated to the raffle table. All of our members are looking forward to your visit!
