swappers that vacate the premises on Saturday. You can begin lining up in
the swap queue after 3 PM Saturday afternoon. The cost of these swap
spaces will be $25.00 per space, with a two spot minimum. Depending on
spectator foot traffic within the grounds, we will start assigning swap
spots around 6:00 PM Saturday night and on Sunday morning between 6:00
