I dropped by Sun Mountain Fun Center today & checked out the Go Karts. Summer hours are 12- 10pm or until they can get you off the track! It is $6.00 per 5 minute run. mike
But, there is still fine tuning/tweaking to do, (times, menus, prices, etc). In negotiating the very best value for our dollar, (read cheapest!!), for the dinner & BBQ at the Shilo, and others, it is important to have as accurate a head count as possible, (I do realize the counts will be changing as the Gathering gets closer).
