Right now I've got a camping trip planned for that weekend. If that changes, I'll probably stop by one day.

I plan on going,look for the old tall dude walking and going oh.also will be bringing stuff for any trade blankets.
Most likely hanging around the knappers as I am just starting in the art of making gravel from large rocks.

I'll be the not-so-old long haired dude walking around dressed in skins (if I make it :D). I'll be all over the place.
This reminds me of another upcoming event..

My kids birthday is that weekend.. might be a nice family outing.. Me and the wife are talking about it. maybe we can fit it in the budget. work is picking up slowly and hopefully we'll have a little extra cash flow. I'll be able to tell you when it's closer to time. The event isn't much farther from here than Panama City so it's doable... I'll let ya know for sure.
