Flintlock please feel free to email Bev n Jerry like she said in her post. They are great people n will bend over backwards to try n make sure ya get all the info n have the best time ya can at the Eastern. The site is beautiful n large by eastern standards. And well set up by the staff. There are wooded areas to set up in if your looking for shade n open areas if ya like the sun.Usually around 2000 people camped. Plenty venders(books to blacksmiths, leather bags,knives, guns you name it its there) n bookoo blankets out to barter n trade from. Like somebody else said with the economy the way it is ya never know how many folks will show up but the Muddy Run site has a good rep n so do Bev n Jerry for running a good event. Its not as active after dark as it used to be(we are all getting older hee hee) but there is usually something going on music wise someplace.Plenty shooting of rifle, smoothie's, archery, hawk n knife throws, n much of this done daily. Folks are for the most part friendly n when they find out yer from Alaska they will probably talk yer ear off. theres food venders that serve breakfasr lunch n dinner n the prices are right friendly.Ice is brought around daily n garbage is picked up the same. Water n wood are on site . Like I said the site is large so nobody is tripping over each others tent ropes by a long shot. Now remember we is in the eastern US so it ain't near as big as Alaskie, heck where yer from is most like near as big as the whole eastern US!! Its a great place n event hope ya come on down n enjoy
