Thanks Dave! Will there be security to protect our equipment while we’re at a campground? Thanks and Cheers! Richard ?

My thoughts exactly! A 2 hour drive from Ottawa, set up, tear down in the middle of the night, and a 2 hour drive home? Not a great “party”! However, if there were a place to set up a tent or
