Event Organizers Plan for Severe Weather

Summer event season is in full swing in the Quad City area. And as the events go on, so does severe weather.
Event organizers must plan for any possible weather conditions. Burlington Steamboat Days President and Des Moines County Sheriff, Mike Johnson, said organizers run through exercises with emergency management crews.
"We think of all possible scenarios that could happen at Steamboat Days," he said.
The
catch ya there!!!
See you soon! Happy day
check your profile, cheryl
Can't wait to meet all of you!
I posted mine on your profile and I have Mrs Cedars
Cheryl: the wrif booth by the carnival area. Time depends on parking. Cedars is probably already on the road but I have her and KRLO's cell numbers.
Yes I am write on my profile Thanks
Cheryl: write me back on this thread if you are online at the moment.
Where are we meeting?
I have a sign, I'll be obviously KRLO. See everyone hopefully today. Sooo excited!!!
I think so :)
I got up way too early also...it's gonna be a loooong day! So are some peeps gonna have signs? Hope to meet everyone today :D
God why am I up so early. Need to alive and wide awake for tonight!
Well goodnight all. Big day tom. Woooo Hooooo!
yeah i looked it up to, but says that you can get individual seats to concerts too. they said something about the seats filling fast
Ok Videoace, sorry this may not be a good option. Went to nightmove.com and looks like you have to book it. You may want to look yourself, maybe I read it wrong. Well good luck. Don't know what my kid is going to do either??
I believe so. My son's friends have used it. But I really don't know much about it. Give me a min. and I will see what I can find out.
ive never heard of the night mover to be honest. ive heard of the people mover, but thats strictly downtown. is the night mover a shuttle service?
@RSMSThat would have been nice. Maybe for the next one.
@Videoace have you ever used the night mover? From what I understand it leaves Ferndale and Royal Oak and goes down woodward. It was listed in the Real Detroit paper. My son is thinking about using it so he won't have to pay those parking rates.
They need a congregation booth.
@KRLO nope the kid crap doesn't stop. Least I'm still waiting...have a 23yr old daughter. She graduated, moved out twice and moved back twice. Big kids - big problems! Glad your daughter is ok though. We are staying at the Westin across from HI express. Maybe we will see you guys. Sounds like it will be crazy.
no prob, KRLO. I have been running around like a chicken without a head, getting ready for tomorrow. Seriously, what I have to do to be able to have a night out---I'm already exhausted. Going to be up for hours but I know tomorrow is going to be a blast. See you then!
RSMS, thanks, nothing serious, my kid just waited forever to tell me she probably had an infection. Came to me this afternoon, It hurts to pee, basically when we got to the doctor she said she has had it about 3 weeks. On the way home, I asked her why so long to tell me, she said, well there are grad parties, and boating, and jet skiing, now she is on very strong antibiotics and pain killers. Something tells me she will say something sooner next time. Kids ya can't live with them, can't live without them. I'm not sweatin' the small stuff, we can find each other I'm sure. Sorry I get long winded when I'm so excited!!!
krlo: hope nothing serious with your youngest.
I have your number and Cedars. We should all be able to work it out. Can't wait. See y'all tomorrow!
OMG JelloShots!!! ....I didn't even think about that! too late now...I need to plan that better next time...
RSMS, Cheryl mentioned meeting at the HI Express, on Washington where I'm staying, Fine with me, I'll have a sign saying KRLO or something to that effect. I think Mrs. Cedar is staying there also. I'm open to meeting anywhere, we can't check in until 3PM, but will try for early check in, either way, you have my husband Ken's phone, and we have your number. We couldn't get there today to pick up the Jersey's so going tomorrow early. Hope my size isn't gone, but don't really care. Well I'll be gone for a bit, my youngest needs to go to emergency, does this kid crap ever stop?? So brainstorm w/ others and I'll check in later.
Got the jerseys and met some fun people in line (jerseys are white). Will call begins tomorrow. Saw the stage through the gates. Ferris wheel is up and located where the Tiger's handicap parking lot is. Looks like that's where all the booths are going to be. Took my kid's to Hockeytown for lunch and brought coneys home for dinner from Lafayette. WRIF booth sounds great but what time?
I just got a email from Wrif saying that on Friday Meltdown will be at Cheilo's from 3-7 & at the Comerica Park lot Anne will be spinning music at the beer garden & to sign up at the Wrif booth to register to win a Kid Rock guitar. So it sounds like there is a Wrif booth there : )
Making the jello shots tonite! We will be there around 3:00 would love to meet some fellow fan club members and share! We will be parked at Bookies Bar on Cass, about 3 blocks from Comerica. They have free shuttle to the concert. Make some signs that say your a KR fan club member so we can find you!!! Can't wait - going to get our shirts tonite at the Fox
Off to work be back at midnight. Darn job hope I'm not this tired on Friday. Yikes
