River Hill Winter 2012

A number of counties have already closed :/ My county (Fairfax) has already closed unfortunately. Hoping for the best, but I doubt that the county will stay open.

I'm from Howard County. We're always the one county that doesn't close for just a couple inches of snow.
(I hope I don't have to eat those words)

Ahh well, I hope it breezes over; it is supposed to be freezing rain 7-11 am, and my dad said he really couldn't be driving in freezing rain like that.

I live in Harford County. My County is famous to the natives for dashing kids hopes whenever it snows. 3 inches of snow? Icing over? Let's get them to school anyway.

Sad. My dad said he isn't driving in sleet and freezing rain. I hope there'll be a spring or summer comp up there soon.

I suppose I should ask as noone has asked yet, and I can not find it on the website- What is the plan if it is closed?

 

[chris410]

Main roads will be fine, I plan on checking this thread before I leave just in case. If anyone hears anything please update otherwise, I will head up.

 

[flee135]

As of right now, the competition will still be going on. Keep up with your emails for any updates.

Too much snow and the way that I go isn't highway. I'm assuming a lot of it wouldn't be plowed at this time. I don't think I'm going to make it. My fav comp :'(

 

[chris410]

On my way! I recently put new a/t tires on my truck so this will be a good test! Be safe everyone.

I am coming. I hope the school doesn't kick us out

 

[cookieyo145]

sadly this is true...

The county has closed all buildings. We are trying to find a secondary venue. If you have not left yet, we suggest you stay home, as the competition if it happens will be very limited.

If it does get cancled, can we do a meetup of some sort?

 

[bluecloe45]

Please keep updated if we get a second venue

 

[bluecloe45]

Just drove by a church abot 15 minutes away. We could ask them

 

[masterofthebass]

We have found a new Venue!

It is at:

5440 Old Tucker Row
Columbia, MD

If any of you remember the Washington DC Open 2010 (which was held in VA at about this same time of year), a similar situation occurred in which it snowed and the county closed all the buildings, so as a result the competition had to be cut short which was quite inconvenient. It's good that you guys were able to find an alternative venue!

 

[RyanReese09]

So how many people actually turned up?

 

[AustinReed]

That sucks about the whole snow situation. See, this is one of the few perks of living in Arizona.
