Things to Know
Nearby Airports
Charlotte Douglas Int'l Airport + Roanoke Regional Airport
Both airports are about 1.5-2 hours away. Keep in mind that the roads are windy and cell reception spotty. It might be smart to save some directions to your phone just in case. There may be others flying too, so there are possible carpooling opportunities. Just be sure to let me know if you are taking it to the sky so I can connect you with other flyers.
What to bring
Some ideas on what to toss in your bag
Think of this as a weekend in the mountains with a highlight, semi-formal event. We don't expect to see suits and heels, but we gon' get classy on Friday. For Saturday, think yard games and playing in the creek while sporting the digs that reveal your true self. For me, that's probably some gems, a sparkly outfit, and maybe a tutu with bring-on-the-dirt tennies. -appropriate footwear -headlamp -layers -sunscreen -your fav game -a wig or festival wear (ya heard) -bathing suit -if you're a snacker, snacks -if driving, a cooler and camp chair
