Denton NC MV & Surplus Show 14-16 April 2016

[Ford Mechanic]

We'll set up where we did last year, 2nd gravel road on the right after the gate. Our camper can't fit in those trees. And it's up on the hill so the dogs won't bother anyone else.

You don't have to reserve a spot. The park has 10k plus people in it at any one time during the farm show. There are camping hook ups every where. Bring a atv if you have one, the wife and I rode around looking one afternoon lots to look at. Their website shows 400 camp sites and 5 bath houses.

Actually, 3 and 4 wheelers are NOT allowed per camping rules: http://dentonfarmpark.com/camping-rules/ . There have been a few at previous events and I don't think anyone has been reprimanded about their use. I am not one to stir the pot, but this IS their establishment and I don't think anyone should be using them at the park. Golf carts, gators, mules and lawnmowers are stated as the only vehicles allowed to be ridden inside the park. You might want to clarify this with the owners tomorrow if it is a problem for anyone.

Yes that will be a question I will be asking.

Does anyone remember what the camping rates are - primitive and camper. It seems like I paid $15/night last year without a camper. All it says on the website is that camping rates vary with each event.

I've already stated my questions. I'll be finding a more interior spot this year. Last year I was hauling my trailer and didn't want to get caught up in anything, less worries this year.

OK, I wish I could think of all my questions at once...but NAW!!

Is it ok to bring semi-well mannered dogs?? (He doesn't bite or bark much but he steals anything that ain't tied down)

I had a atv last year and never had anything said to us. Rode it all over the place. Please ask though

The site rates go as this.
$ 15 a night without water or electric
$ 30 a night with water and electric on 30 amp
$ 40 a night with water and electric on 40 amp
Water and electricity and showers and restrooms will be operational on the 13th. So we should all be good to go when everyone shows up on Wednesday or Thursday.

Fire rules
Fire pit will be above ground on grass or on gravel in some sort of container.

Their will be tractor trailer parking available. There is all kind of parking for that.

Dogs are to be kept on a leash and to stay at your camp site. Per park rules. That is what we were told today.

ATV rules are as followed. Golf carts, gators, and mules are acceptable. NO ATVS. There is going to be a few their but that will be for the ones helping out with the event. This is also PER DENTON FARM PARK MANAGER.


There is going to be a couple of us getting there early on Wednesday. So we should be able to direct you to where you need to go when you get their. From checking in to getting to the unload site to where you can leave your tow rig.

If i have left anything out don't hesitate to ask.

Please check with Cgarbee about setting up the MKT, I think an early arriver should mark off a spot for him?
