ED just raised all the prices for October 2018. Spoke with the security people the Fairgrounds is dropping the contract with their current security company in favor of in house police force. Cost is going up.
Also, someone hinted that they may go to once a year. I think that is simply a rumor. Seems the ED loses money on the meet.
The moveto Thursday to kill the bandit meets seemed to work for the first couple of years but now I think it’s a non factor.
I think the weather had more of an affect this April. Thursday was horrible and Friday with the winds was not much better.
