Can anyone tell what the trailer parking situation has been here in years past?  I notice that the application asked if I will need trailer parking, so I assume that they are providing something, but I'm thinking that might only be for during the day.  I will also need overnight parking because where I'm staying doesn't have room for the tow vehicle and trailer.  Ideally, I'd like to be able to park the rig somewhere for the whole week and use the AMX to drive back and forth to the activities.

Cam, in 2011 arrangements were made with a nearby college in Kenosha that trailers could park there. It's a very big lot, when I was there in 2011 I saw no more than about 10 trailers there. Any one else not there I guess was parking their trailers at the hotel they were staying at.

If you use the lot you have to unhook, leave your trailer there and drive back to your hotel.

I'd assume the same parking lot will be used this time. But that is not official from me. 

I picked a hotel that has a large truck stop nearby. I was going to park there and walk back and forth. I might also use the big college lot. Won't make up my mind until I get there probably..

During the last show at Kenosha I parked my trailer at the school and it worked out very well.  There were several others there also.  Not all that far from the show and plenty of room.... Prior to that the hotel at the harbor where I stay did not allow trailer parking due to limited space and at least one trailer got a ticked for parking.   I don't recall what the security set up was at the school ....

I was able to book a room at the Super 8 today. First time back to Kenosha for me since 2002. Reviews online seem mixed. Can anyone here add a review of the facility? Google map looks like there may be some trailer space here which is a plus. Can't wait for July!!

Just got a room at the Holiday Inn Express (since I had Priority Club points I could use!)

Looking forward to my first Kenosha Homecoming! Won't have my car close to finished but can't wait to be there anyway.
