**Special Notice to all participants wishing to camp at the race site:**
Wayne County Commissioners met on Monday, October 5th and voted to impose a $40 PER NIGHT fee to those wishing to camp at the race site beginning with this event. This is beyond race committee control at this point in time, however it is being worked on to try and have a better solution for the future. There are no amenities or hook ups available at the race site and your camping will have to be self-contained as it always has been in the past. As an alternative there is a Campground at the Heavenly Acres Arena, http://southgeorgiarodeo.com/ , from what we have been told they have 34 sites with full hook ups at $30 per night. The address is 4761 GA-203 Screven, GA 31560 - phone # 912-579-6967. This is approximately 1 mile from the race course, you would exit via Griffis Rd to Route 203 and take a right, Heavenly Acres is located on your left fairly quick.
