NAN 2014 Show Day Reminders 7/3/14

Hi All,

NAN 2014 is almost upon us!! Are you all ready?

Yashka and I will be on the road starting Saturday and will be arriving in Lexington sometime Sunday.

I've created a Confirmation Packet document that has been uploaded to the NAN page at https://www.namhsa.org/nan.htm

Note that Tuesday morning is going to be a bit rough since we will not have access to the hall until 6am that day and nothing will have been setup. Please be patient and we'll get you in just as soon as we are ready to do so.

Here are the directions to Lexington Hall/Rupp Arena. NOTE that these directions are from the Clarion Hotel (formerly Holiday Inn North) on Newton-Pike aka "The Party Hotel".

From Coleman Ct (next to Clarion) take a left onto Newton-Pike and take towards downtown.

Turn left onto W Main St.

Turn right onto Tucker St.

Directions from the Clarion (Breyerfest host hotel) to NAN.

This will bring you into the rear of the hall into a parking area.

Notice that when you get into the parking area you will go left up to the loading dock area. It is here where you can unload your vehicle.

We will need you to unload your vehicle and then IMMEDIATELY move it down to the parking spaces area so that others can get in and unload as well.

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE AT THE LOADING AREA! PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE OF OTHER SHOWERS. EVEN IF IT'S RAINING.

We'll see if we can get use of some trolleys again this year as this really helped out. Please, if you use a trolley, get your horses to your table, unload the trolley and then return it so that others may use it.

I ask that you do NOT block the doors for entry as I and Yashka will need it clear to bring in all of our stuff. Please form a line along the wall and as tight of a line as possible please. We will endeavor to open the doors at 7am but again, we may be bit late if we are still setting up.

When you pick up your Show Day Packet PLEASE DOUBLE-CHECK your classes and if you find any problems bring them to my attention ASAP. As I have mentioned before, bringing up an issue right before or during class loading is NOT ACCEPTABLE as nothing can be done at that point.

My mobile is 719.660.5676 if you need to reach me for any reason.

Safe journeys everyone! Yashka and I look forward to seeing you all next week!

Clear skies,
Jim West
