I won't be able to make it, but am amused to report that promotional cards for the festival can be found at all sorts of apparently unlikely places in Oakdale - fast food places, supermarkets, you name it. Someone has definitely been getting the word out. I passed one of the cards on to Chris Jones.

Bump
Lynne,
Make sure to register ahead to avoid late admission fees.
I don't think that she has internet where she lives and works.

John M et al.
Never ceases to blow my mind how thoughtful the Campfire of Climbers is. Thank You!
I start back at my job with Nomad Ventures on 10-21 after a 5 month hiatus. Just didn't have the cojonas to ask for 4 days off just after I start back.....so I WILL TOTALLY miss you all!!!
What's the next event on the Climbing Calendar?
Cheers and Love, Lynne

Hey Dave,
The 50th anniversary of the first ascent of the Dihedral Wall is this coming Saturday so check Ken's thread to see about the details.
The Oakdale Festival is the following weekend.
See you there!

The camping options are described on the City of Oakdale website for the event linked above.
Tell ANYONE that you think may be interested in this presentation about it because I would hate to have folks miss out on this singular historical opportunity.
You won't see this line up of speakers assembled again so come and check it out!

Free registration ends tomorrow and we have a few more speaker additions like Nick Clinch and potentially Tommy Caldwell (if he is not up on El Cap) to sweeten the deal!
Don't miss this one folks!

Bump for the Climbers Fest!
The speaker's lineup for all three days is loaded and the gear symposium on Sunday will be exceptional for you ironheads.
Do your best to make the first annual event. It's going to be a blast!

Nightly bump for the festival this weekend.
Forgot to mention a very tasty Mexican restaurant in town: Suzey Belen's on 140 N 3rd Ave.
Hope to see the ST well represented!

Thanks for that sully. I did a search for pubs and didn't see this one. I presume they have a healthy assortment of ales.

Damn! Verdict from the dentist; he's goin' in, so I can't make Oakdale either!
