N,S, E or west?

I once again got six spots for everyone down in the corner of W row. Be sure to stop out and say hello.

Which corner of W row?
I may be making it up there this year, was up there 2 years ago when it was way too hot.

I am heading out on the 9th and have reservations in Stevens Point and will be at the show till Sat night or Sunday, this will be my first time in attendance so needless to say I am very excited to actually partake in this event as opposed to just hearing about it!

Good to hear you are going to make it Mike! I should be there at least part of the weekend. Looking forward to the fun and green.

I am at the end of W row right by the MMVA meeting tent. Just look for the guy with more M923 and Hummer tarps than you could ever imagine in one place.

??? about attending Iola in a MV

I'm sure it's in here somewhere, but I'm having a hard time finding it.

For us newbies thinking of attending Iola and possibly bringing their own MV, what can we expect? How much to get in? Do we need a reservation? etc?

I tried the website, but none of the links worked for me. They all opened up to a page of Gibberish code.

Any help would be appreciated.

I was hoping to make it up there but is does not look like it is going to happen this year. Does anyone have pictures of previous years they would like to share?

Thanks,

Plenty of pics to be found by searching Iola here on SS. What can be expected is a great time. I will not miss this for anything.

Great link, but as stated before, none of the links on that page go anywhere. It's been that way for years. I don't think they will ever fix it.

My first MV show

I called Mary this morning. And for those that haven't been there, There is no charge to pull in if your driving a MV and you want to park to 'show it off'.
Come in Gate 3 of Co. J and watch for a bidge out on 49 if you're coming in through Waupaca. Easiest to come in off of Hwy10 she says.
I did not ask about vendor spots or camping...

Hope to see you all there. I'll be driving the dirty, rusted out M813 with the bent bumper ... (Not sure If I'll put the cover on?) Not bringing my 105 trailer as the harness doesn't work for the lights yet.

 

[kennys@wi.rr.com]

How is everyone planning on going with the bridge being out on 49? It looks like I will be taking 22 up and over.

 

[skinnedknuckles]

Kenny, there are more than one way into town I'm just going however my truck takes me or in other words I'm going to Symco first then head over to Iola.
See ya there,
Paul

I plan on taking 49 out of waupaca to elmvalley rd. Than right on blueberry rd. To J Thanks Brad

 

[Driven To Build]

So for us first time spectators looking to buy a m35a2 is the show open on Friday or Saturday? I see vendor setup on Friday according to the flyer, does that mean it is not open to non participants on Friday? I can only make it there one day.

I have never been up there for the MV show is there many trucks for sale or is it just a parts swap meet?

 

[Chain-Saw]

Elm Valley Rd. looks pretty small, I'd be worried about weight limits on the bridges. Expecially since my M923 will be loaded up with "stuff". Think I'll head North on 110/22 out of Weyauwega, and angle over on Cty K to Cty B then Cty J up into Iola.
Here's a pic of where the bridge is out just south of Scandanavia. 49 @ Cty V.

If you can only make it on one day then make that day Saturday. My opinion is it's the better day to see more of everything.
