This year should be nicer, except for the wind-possible gusts to 35 mph-probably won't put the Shadyboy up? Plan to draw the buses/vans into an appropriate wind shield/shelter configuration. I still predict the guys in thongs will still be doing the polar bear swim on Sat am-a scary sight, not for the faint hearted.
