Aldo; Just a private hint for next year if you want the Battleground Inn. Last year I called the reservation desk at the Battleground within a few minutes of Dale posting the new dates. Also a waiting list for this year was started by the folks at the battleground for this year for the folks who stayed at the Inn last year.

Best regards, Peter
