Question about tomorrow: if we want to access the park before 12 to use as a family (and then stay as part of the event) is that possible? Or is the park completely closed for a certain amount of time beforehand for set-up etc?

Conversely happy to be there beforehand and then leave to get ID'd...

Absolutely, you're more than welcome to come before 12 and use the park, we don't close it at any point.

We will be setting up though, so we'll be moving a lot of stuff in during that time.

Love the partnership with brewdonkey for those people on this side of the river who don't want to worry about driving. Going to miss it due to a cottage trip but hopefully can make the next one in QC.

Nice meeting you Cass. Great job on this one. Like I said, perfect setting and the food was a notch above. L'oree du bois' fois gras platter was something else.

Thanks for making the trip and nice to meet you too. It was a pretty amazing setting and the food & beer were delicious. Here's hoping it's the first of many in QC!
