things to bring into a caravan stop
does anyone know what you are allowed to bring into these caravan stops? blankets? chairs? food? etc...

what do you recommend? I've never done a music festival before...

also, I see that doors open at 11AM each day. what time does the music start and end each day?

new to ants posting -- I hope I did this right!

    money is probably the only thing they'll allow you to bring in.

    Probably won't be able to bring anything other than money and a couple sealed water bottles.

    For Chicago, I'm planning on bringing everything else in the car and utilizing that as a base of operations during the weekends.

    From the FAQ section of the Caravan site:

    Are cameras permitted?
    Compact and cell phone cameras are permitted. Video cameras are prohibited.

    Per the FAQs, you can bring a blanket, an empty reusable bottle for water and a small, soft sided backpack to carry it all in.

    Always a good idea to have an inexpensive rain poncho packed for the Gorge. Unpredictable weather out there.
