E-mail from our crew chief, Lee. (Who loves to use exclamation marks!!!!)

The following is a recommended [list of stuff to bring.] We will be getting a team T shirt--distributed in Oceanside.

Please don't over load the RV. There will be 16 of us living out of the RV and using the space to store stuff.
