June 5. I'm here! Re: [YCSP] JUNE 5-9 2024 PARTY UPDATE

 

Hi guys, nice to hear I'm going to have company soon.?
I've had only a few drops so far.? The radar looks interesting, though, and I dont blame anyone who is choosing the times to arrive here.? Please spread the word, though, I'm certain everyone has had a busy year, it's now time to party!

Its actually quite nice.? Cool, breezy, and everuone else has gone home for the day.? I've got my camper and storage tent set up, and that's only in the last hour.??

NOTE: I arrived around 12:30, they HAD ROAD CLOSED SIGNS EVERYWHERE, BUT CONTINUE.? They are repaving the road, one side at a time, and letting people pass asap.? I waited 15 minutes.??

I had help to get EVERYTHING COVERED WITH RED FILTERS.? That was my priority today.??

Now it's time to eat.? Looks like I've got to get things done quickly, I've got less than an hour before the rains arrive, raining for maybe an hour.
C u soon!
Phil

Great news!? The forecast is looking decent, and I plan to be there for Friday and Saturday.

Regarding the September party, that's a bummer.

Here is a list of a number of other star parties scheduled in the region (see page 3): ?

The original September dates were already a few days after the new moon; the following weekend (September 13-15) will have a more-than-first-quarter moon up until after midnight.

Any chance of doing Labor Day weekend (August 28 - September 1), which could possibly be extended through Sunday night since it's a holiday weekend?? That does conflict with Spruce Knob, which might be on some folks' radar.? That said, AHSP is already sold out, so if you haven't gotten your tickets already it's too late

Early August conflicts with Stellafane, although it's also worth pointing out that Cherry Springs will be limited in early August since the Woodsman's show is occurring over the new moon weekend, so folks might be looking for alternatives for the August new moon period.

The last weekend in September conflicts with the South Jersey Star Party, so that's not ideal since I know there are some folks who like to attend both.

First weekend in October could work.? That overlaps with the end of the Staunton River Star Party; not sure how much overlap this group has with attendance there.

Best,
Jeremy
