Hey everyone! There is a snow advisory for this weekend so PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE leave very early and allow plenty of extra time for travel. We don't want anyone rushing in slick conditions. WDFKP has a very tight schedule which doesn't permit routines to perform out of order. Please drive carefully and plan to arrive at least 2 hours early or when doors open. BE safe out there!!
