Hello all.. Happy Holidays!

HELP ASAP--I still need more responses!!!?

It is pretty clear to me what I will need to do, but more responses would make this obvious to the park supervisors.

?

Thanks all that responded so far, a total of 16.? At least 4 of the responders have big RVs that, bless you, don’t care and are planning to attend.? I’m ok with that IF I have no expenses.? The lot has a decent field of view, and still a good place for observing.

?

But this does not look promising for this state park if there is no compromise here.? I already have my eye at another location that could be dark and could work, and not that much further from my location in York.

?

PLEASE if you have not responded, I need more numbers to work with.? I will clarify one thing below, and appreciate your comments, which I will share (anonymously) with the state people, AND the group.? Some of them gave me a laugh, which is appreciated!

This is what I sent out:

------------------------------------------------------

here is the one question with choices. ?You may reply by simply responding as completely as possible,

for example only: ???????A0 B20 C30 D 98 (A0 means zero percent) ??!!! ?NOTE:? THIS DOESN’T HAVE TO TOTAL 100%.? YOU CAN VOTE 100% FOR MORE THAN ONE CHOICE.?

ALSO NOTE: If you wish to clarify your earlier vote, some of which are confusing, or want to explain, please feel free to do so.? All responses are going into a folder.

-----------------------------------------------------

THE QUESTION IS: WHAT IS THE % LIKELIHOOD OF YOU ATTENDING THE PARTY IF:

A. you are required to use the official campgrounds in the trees at the north end of the parking lot, and could leave equipment on the field overnight (I've already told them the party won't happen here)

B. TENTS and SCOPES will be allowed on the field, vehicles are not allowed on the field, and you are required to carry all camping and astro gear to the ballfield

C. TENTS and SCOPES will be allowed on the field, but vehicles will be allowed only for unloading and loading, but required to park in the parking lot near the bathrooms (this MAY be an option if we can't fit enough people on the observing field for a SMALL TO MID-SIZE party. I don't know what that number is yet.)

D. SAME AS LAST YEAR: You can park next to your tent, and ONLY RVs and other heavy or 2-axle campers or trailers are required to park on the parking lot.

AGAIN, PLEASE RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL ADDRESS ASAP: philderosa1@...

Thanks everybody for your speedy responses!

Ok, now I understand! But I am not very picky about these criteria, so I would rate them as follows: A75; B70; C75; D80;?
