Not only has Lynn been a part of the contest scene his entire life, he has been an esteemed judge for multiple contests, hosted the Boonsboro contest for several years, and has played band gigs and dances across Missouri.

ALL contestants are responsible for their own fair admission fees.

Contestants wishing to park closer than general admission parking may pick up one (1) complimentary parking tag for Lot R at the Visitor's Hospitality Booth on South Highway 65, next to the Missouri Dept. of Conservation office building before entering Gate 11.

These tags are NOT available at the gate.
Any additional vehicles should park in general admission parking.

I have attached a photo map from Google. Gate 11 is in the right lower corner in this image, you can zoom in and see it. Hopefully this helps those of us not familiar with the grounds layout.
