✅ Travel Tips & Best Practices
Book early — Popular hotels fill fast during event week; refundable options may save stress.
Rent a car — Crucial for getting between airports, hotels, and the venue.
Fuel up smart — Fill up in Henderson or Longview or CEFCO Gas station is 7 miles south of YRC.
Carpool or RIDE on 2 wheels — Parking on-site ( RV lot ) is limited; sharing rides helps.
Plan buffer time — Expect 20–45 minute drives with event traffic—leave early for key events.
Pack for East Texas weather — Evenings can cool; bring layers, sunscreen, insect repellent.
RV guests should pre-book their site — Ensure access to water, electric, and sewer. Sites sell out.
Confirm reservations — Recheck hotel bookings and RV site reservations within 48 hours.
Keep communication handy — Cell reception can be spotty—download maps offline.
