The closest decent cheesesteak is Carl's in Bethlehem and I am pretty sure that I sent Other Dog there last year and he enjoyed it. 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gates left open? Or would I have to wait until Friday morning? Or just plan on getting there in time for dinner and get in line Friday morning? Or get parked and thumb a ride to dinner? Can I even walk in after dark to get to my trailer? Not sure how tight you close up? Larry, the show grounds are pretty much open for you to come and go. However, message me on Facebook and I will give you my number, if you need a ride to dinner on Thurs I'd be happy to help you out. 1 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a diner across the street from the entrance and a pizza place next to it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

67RModel Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) Where would someone park a passenger car if travelling from out of town to Macungie to go to the show? I've never been there before and trying to go this year. I don;t know anything about the logistics of getting there, parking, entry fees, etc. Edited June 11 by 67RModel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been there before and trying to go this year. I don;t know anything about the logistics of getting there, parking, entry fees, etc. There are several options. 1. Macungie Fire Department charges $5.00 to park at their lot. All the money goes to their firefighting operations fund. 2. The Boy Scouts run a parking lot off of Main Street, I think it's $5.00. A good cause. 3. Many private residences along Walnut Street allow you to park in their driveways and yards for a few bucks. 4. Street parking where available. Pay attention to signs, you will get ticketed if you violate. Stick to the residential neighborhood off of Walnut Street. We are not ATHS. We are ATCA!!! There are NO entrance fees for spectators!!! The only fee is to enter a truck into the show!!! Check your private messages!!! And don't forget to meet at the Watts Mack Tent at 12:00 on Saturday for the BMT group picture!!!!! 2 Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 I’m not necessarily worried about food, but it’s always nice to go back there and have some food for gods which is hard to find here depending what you’re looking for I’m sure they will be plenty of food vendors at the show to fill up on bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are also a few other food vendors. Out on Main Street, there is a decent Diner and a pizza place both right across the street from the main entrance.

That's a great excursion, I really enjoyed the old steel mill, but I loaded beams there a lot in the 80's. Very interesting for anyone to see though.

other dog Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 I parked at the Boy Scout lot the first time I went, it's on the left just before you get to the park if you're coming south on 100. The other times we parked at the fire department lot, it's to the right just across from the park. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
