Just an update:
We have been getting about 10+ calls a day at the shop from people all over the Midwest inquiring about the show. We can probably hold 100-125 vendors if need be.
I have trophies on order for the following categories:
BEST OLD SCHOOL
BEST SCHOOL-ON
BEST FREESTYLE
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT THE SHOP ABOVE OR ME DIRECTLY:

It has been mainly sting ray, but BMX has gotten more and more popular at it. Now i have amassed 50 or more freestyle and bmx bikes I figured why not add BMX show categories.

I can't find any info on the TIME of this show. Just the date. What time does it start? I've been there every year for the past few years, not missing this one either.

Or, I guess that would be 9 for spectators, buyers? Do people show up earlier that, or are they turned away if they do? I realize it's just a parking lot, but not sure of the protocol.
