Of Note: Manpower Park is an outdoor venue, athletes are encouraged to bring pop-up canopies and chairs to have a shaded place to rest between events. Also, we will have to rent porta-johns for the day and we will try to ensure that their is an ADA compatible unit on site. This park also has enough space to accommodate vendor booths. Anyone interested should reach out to me, we are asking a $150 donation to set up a vendor booth.

We are going to have food on site (not pizza this time) for this event. We haven't got the specifics down yet, but we have some good ideas. As always we will have cold drinks available for sale at a very reasonable price. As we get closer to the show I will continue to update this section as the details unfold, be sure to check in from time to time for the latest info.

Weigh-ins: Day ahead weigh ins will be at the OVSC clubhouse behind 75 W. Huron St. in Jackson from 8-9am and from 5-7pm. Last chance weigh ins will be in the shelter house at the park at 7:30am sharp. We will rig up a privacy curtain for anyone being so close to weigh that they feel the need to strip down.
