We'll meet between 5-9pm (or more!) on the west patio of Great Basin Brewing Company for their great beers, and as a return-to basecamp.

Then we are on our own, as there's tons to see and eat, at each person's choice. Most years several groups of people hang together, but feel free to go--and eat yum--at your own pace.

There'll be a good performer on the main stage, always is; a good local band on the Plaza stage, and a small band right where we meet, starting later...

So Great Basin patio is our "home base-camp" for meeting back up when desired, on and off...:-)
