some other nut would have to tow in the supplies.

Karlos  Cheers

It wouldn't take a lot more for me to bring enough for a "platform". LOL
So, I guess I'm that nut. Wink

I'm thinking more on the lines of a "simple" platform. Like a small scaffold. Thumbs Up

I would like to add another possible yet completely useless idea that we encase the entire split-rail fence in concrete to protect it during the festival...and for millennia to come!!

Festivarians Frolic Frequently

Maybe someone else knows which would be more expensive and time consuming:

a) building a scaffolding that would need a railing, stairs and wheelchair ramp if we are really objecting for the sake of the differently-abled

b) renting a lower chain link fence

Is there anyone who has mentioned this to planet folks.  I think discussing alternatives before it's too late - and discussing alternatives prior before any gorilla action (snipping fence areas) might be a simple solution.   If it is indeed for protecting the fence and not keeping people out.   

I will be happy to make a beautiful cloth banner that asks people who don't know, not to hop the fence when they can walk around, and to save the wood fence.

Judging by the word tried, I'm guessing they didn't succeed? Sounds like a fun story none-the-less.

Oh, that is a knee slappin' story, fur sure!

Back on Topic...

As Fuzzy mentioned.. is there any way the Planet can, at the least, ask Q to ensure that Kenny can have access around the fence of his camp?

2008 TBF Flamingo Slayer

I'm invisioning something along the lines of the platform type used to peer down into garbage trucks as they enter a landfill.  The thing has stairs, railed platform about 7 to 10 feet off the ground, and can accomodate a lot of festivarians.  We'll get the boys over at Steamboat to construct a lift for Kenny.   :hop

Heck, we might as well see if Planet Bluegrass will move the bleachers from the hula hoop/dance area up to Town Hall. LOL
If you want that big of a footprint, we may as well. Wink

A little birdy from production land has recently me informed that in a continuing effort to ease the suffering or our dust sensative fellow festivarians that last year's fence relocation was the first phase of a dust abatement program.  Phase two has been planned for this TBF. A privacy shield will be installed to prevent aggregate dust proliferation from entering town park. Just like the one at Warner Field.
