squonk 41,099 #7 Posted May 19, 2017 (edited) Yes same one as last year Scotland/Chamberburg. HHHOOOWWWWWAAAAAAAAAARRRRDDDDDDDDDD! GPS Address is: 3301 Black Gap Rd. Chambersburg P.A. 17202 It's about 25 min from the BlueSky on the back roads. Drive from the Sky like you are going to the show. Turn left just before the fairgrounds onto Boyer Nursery Rd. until it ends. Turn rt. onto Cashtown Rd. You will go a short ways and Cashtown bends to the left but there is an intersecting rd. on the curve that goes straight. That is Short Cut Rd. Take the short cut to Chambersburg Rd. RT 30 (If you miss the short cut Cashtown will connect to 30) Turn Rt on Chambersburg Rd. (30) and drive a few miles. There will be a stop light ( i believe the 2nd light you'll see where Black Gap Rd. (Rt. 997) meets Rt. 30 Turn rt. and drive about 5 or 6 miles and you'll see a McDonalds, Chambersburg Mall And the Comfort Inn on your left.

I gotta find'em first, it's been a while. 41 minutes ago, stevasaurus said: Thanks John...It was one of the hardest decisions I have had to make. Without a doubt, that had to be a tough decision, it's obvious how much you enjoy being there. Your first year was mine too so I don't know what it's like without you being there. The huge smile on your face when you won the tractor raffle is still one of my favorite memories of all the shows. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACman 7,618 #21 Posted May 28, 2017 (edited) Going to miss you this year @stevasaurus ... I've been having some bad juju following me around lately too . Hope your recovery goes well . I could just make a permanent seat at the bus stop ! We're staying at the Holiday Inn express in Shippensburg so I can be what ever I want when wake in the morning . Ship me some wine Steve and I can try to fill your shoes (without socks of course) and play the part of the old Dino . Edited May 28, 2017 by ACman 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
