Well, I and some others are going down the night before. And last year, there was an after party of sorts, so I'm staying down there the weekend. It's optional of course.

'Bout time you pipe up.

Doubles at the Red Roof via Priceline are ~$55/night. I haven't booked yet. I hadn't looked at singles. Are you coming down Fri night or Sat morn?

Dudes, I'm not making it. I don't want to spend the money, quite frankly. Sorry!

Hello all!

This will be the last update for this event! Based upon the amount of cars coming, we have made some changes to the layout this year. You will notice on the map, that the center point of the show will be shifted so that nobody is "out of the action". We had the opportunity to get closer to the highway with Skillman's purchase of the dealership in front of them, however we would only be able to park on a gravel lot. We opted against the gravel lot and adjusted.

This year you will be able to enter from either entrance off of US-31. There will be two areas for spectator parking.

To answer questions regarding the "Afterparty" -- There will be no after party this year. Instead we will have a "Pre-Meet" at The Suds will begin around 6pm. This year we have put together an "Amazing Race" style scavenger hunt for those arriving on Friday. We will give you a list of several items to find, get pictures of, or simply do to win great prizes on Saturday. The Scavenger hunt envelopes will be passed out at 8:00 PM at The Suds!

Again, the whole purpose of Mazdafest will be to support the Johnson County Animal Shelter so please bring donations to support that cause. We will give raffle tickets for each donation that will be good for prizes and a shot at winning a set of Mazdafest 2010 Cornhole Boards and Bags!

Just a reminder that the Johnson County Animal Shelter is run by the Sheriff's department, and there will be uniformed officers on the site this year. Please DO NOT drink alcoholic beverages on the premises.

This year in addition to what we had last year we will have live music by Truett and the Traitors a band featuring Mazda3 owner Grazamataz (Chris Greig)!

Don't worry too much about the weather, we will have lots of food, fun, and prizes for everyone! Gates open at 8am!! See you there!

More of the Chicago area folks need to show up next year. The weather, though it looked bad, held out for us all night. It just started raining about an hour ago. Can't complain about that.

Had fun the weather held nice and cool. Perfect for the cars not too hot not too cold. For those who didn't show you missed a great event.
