Sorry! I'm just used to you always having a camera! Of course you're more than welcome to leave it behind if you prefer.

Count me in as a spotter. Wanted this to be my first troop but my armor is somewhere between Orlando and here.

Thanks for signing up to help out! We're going to be heading to the main entrance at 7:50 to meet our contact to drive us in, so please make sure you're there before then. It will be easier to get in if you're with us :)

We're going to have a parking lot change in the area circled in red below. If you don't have a costumer with you, I'd like to try and save those specific spots for people changing so if you could just park near it and walk over that would be awesome. It's a limited number of spots and we've got a pretty big group coming. We'll be arriving around 7:15 so any time after that you should be able to find us pretty easily.

Oh, and I should mention - we all have to pay for parking. I'm not sure how much it is, but everyone should be prepared for that.

I have an annual pass at the zoo. I know about parking. Heck, I'd have my own squad of costumes if it wasn't for parking at the children's museum and zoo.
