2015 Great Taste of the Midwest

Post by Matt F »

Tim, Steven and myself have reserved campsites 14-16 at Lake Farm County Park on the south side of Madison for Friday and Saturday night of Great Taste weekend. Good way to stay in town for cheap. Just 3 miles south of the fest. If you are going to camp, pick a site near us. Or don't, your choice. :wink:

My wife and I will be in our popup. Not sure if we can add a tent or not. Usually can. Tim may know.

I would think each camper could have a tent and usually you can have a couple tents on a site. We'll find out this week. They also have non electric sites that are cheaper. I have a camper so went electric. Still cheaper than a hotel.

I received a mail-in ticket for Great Taste. Guess I'll look for lodging/campsite.

I have been released from going to a wedding next weekend. I am hoping to drive up and scalp a ticket or two. If anyone knows someone who might have an extra ticket or two, let me know please. I would greatly appreciate it.
