Ok kansas city is central to the greater number of people in this area of the country. But those of you who can afford to come from parts elswhere are certainly welcome. (YES! Tony B. Even you Crazy Texacans, :lol:)

April 8-9. Kansas City, KS: Ararat Shrine Swap Meet. The Woodlands Race Track, 9700 Leavenworth Road, Kansas City, KS 66109. Vendor spaces for April and August events $70, April only vendor space $40. Car Corral spaces $25 each. Buyers $5 per carload. Gates open at 6am each day. Toll free info line for those outside of the Kansas City area call (800) 211-4129; KC Metro number: (816) 923-6220.

You'll want atleast traveling money. And food money. Plus $5.00 to get in at the show. And maybe some money to buy stuff with. Maybe we could all split the bill for breakfast if this would help everybody out.

I beleive we could all meet up at Dennys and eat breakfast together. The morning of the swap meet and when we get done if we want / have time to look for something else to do. Maybe we could all go see a movie too. and those who can arrange can stay overnight and have breakfast together again the next morning.


Fordman is there a denny central to the area of the swap meet affore mentioned?

Also please travel in grooups when possible.

not very many good eating places around that area. it is right off of 435 west or north. i can give directions if anyone wants them. i can look around for a good place to eat if that be the task at hand. i do know where there is a good mexican resurant near there. but it's kind of small. it's in a strip mall.

here is what i found out so far. here is the woodlands resturant guide but i don't think it will be open on the swap meet. but there should be some venders with food if not.

here is a general map of the area that might be able to be of use for looking up other things going on. or other resturants in the area.

What time does the meet start? Could we do lunch instead of breakfast? Wendys(yes shamefull.. I mean shameless plug here) Has some good food. big salads for around 4.59 or so and 2 smaller ones for aorund a 1.10 after tax prices folks and combos ranging from 4.27-6.50 or so after tax. Plus 13 items including burgers fries and drinks for $0.99 before tax 1.06-1.10 after tax.

Or we could meet at a local shop and pick a resteruant. you don't have to eat if you prefer not to.

There is some good places near the race track and hotels, so there has got to be a dennys somewhere near there. The Red Barron is a nicer good place or there is a restaruant in Cabella's I think.
