To all Aug IN rally participants -

Have any of you stayed at the fairgrounds/ag campground in Goshen? We are thinking of staying there when we leave Shipshewana on the 8th. We will have already been to Auburn and all the museums on 8/2 and 8/3 and still want to tour the area and enjoy the Amish.

If not the campground in Goshen - any suggestions for others?

Looking forward to meeting everyone on Thur 8/4 at the pass-along dinner.
