We’re staying at the Hampton Inn gateway arch. Is it safe to walk back from the dome at night? I’m assuming there will be a large group of people walking back to hotels. Sorry to sound clueless but I pretty much am about the city. I can't speak for the uber service, as I don't use it. Looks like you've got a short walk, so I wouldn't worry about it. The neighborhood isn't great, but isn't terrible if you stay to the south. Go north and things get a bit more sketchy.

I will be a few hours away burying my younger sister who died from the same cancers for which I am being treated. She attended many greater Chicago-land DCI contests with me and also sent her kids to the same Catholic h.s. that the Scherers sent their son. Please keep us all in your prayers. Younger siblings aren't supposed to go first. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2014856708525373&set=p.2014856708525373&type=3&theater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t seem to private message you, but your sister, you, and your family are in my prayers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually park farther away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walk all over Indy so I’m guessing this is fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've walked all over the area around the dome at all hours of the night. The dome is right up against Laclede's Landing (which is a tourist attraction and has a large number of bars) and the Lumere Casino (which attracts people all hours). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStarsDad Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I saw a post that there is a party at the Morgan Street Brewery on the landing ... not sure who was hosting but Morgan Street is a great place to grab a beer. I plan on being there at 2 PM for my pre-contest beverage. If anyone else is there, stop by and say hi. I'll be the one wearing a Blue Stars shirt (as usual). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quad Aces Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Does anyone know why SCV is not at this show? I’m going to it, and don’t get me wrong, I’m excited to be going, but how can this be considered a regional if SCV isn’t going to be there?

Seems like the choice was Drums Along the Rockies or the St Louis show ... too far to travel from Denver to St Louis in one day. Not sure why they chose Denver over St Louis.
