Camping and Attendance Notes

Camping, per the IV blog:

"With the recent weather, camping has been a hot issue. We are working on a solution with the goals of dryness and cleanliness. As of now if the weather clears, Del Mar will charge $10/night for the stable area. There is a full hookup campground on the property for $34/night but there may be a parking lot we can use but we have not been promised that yet. "

Because conditions are probably going to be sort of miserable, make sure to dress warm. The arena seats and track are covered, but make sure you're prepped for the inclement weather!

Happy racing/spectating!
