    If you don't mind hanging over in the primitive area, there are plenty of trees. More than enough. If you want to be closer to the food/action and have a stand would not be a bad idea to bring it. For those of you with a luggage rack on your cars, you could also hang one end on the car and the other from a tree in the main campground area.

    You can only camp near your vehicle if you are in the main campground area. Sertoma Youth Ranch has hosted weekend events with crowds exceeding 1500 campers. They can accommodate our group of less than 300.

    The venue change for me has really pointed out how much we enjoy getting together in community. HangCon is about the community more than the event. I wasn't sure if some folks would back out with the venue change, but not one has as far as I know! You all rock!!!

    So many choices on where to hang.... Stay in the trees with many choices on where to hang, but a little bit farther from the central area. Sounds like a great place for my "bed".

    Or.... Use a hammock stand and get closer to the action and even get out into the open area for a little extra sun. A very doable idea.

    And.... I even have the option to bring an RV or camper trailer or even a teardrop trailer. I need to make me a teardrop trailer.

    So many choices.... Thanks, Gumbo, for your tireless efforts in getting us the best location for HangCon 2019 and HangCon 2020 location is also ready.

    Getting my gear ready and my canned food for the Food Drive in order.
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you

    It's about the people, not the place. I was coming even if my bathroom consisted of a trowel.

    You're welcome. Glad I could be of assistance. Payments can be made in raffle tickets. You can find me around the fire.

    thanks for the updates. Changed my destination for Thursday which is closer to where I'll be. Now just have to figure out my drive home schedule. Hoping to get enough Gator for chili Thursday night in Jacksonville. If not it'll be a mix of Gator and Wild boar.
