food update: hugely sad!! every year the only food i buy at stampede is the bannock..this year they have new management, and they don't have icing sugar or cinammon! the only thing they have is cheese or jam...that really ruined my food experience i look forward to every year! note to self: bring icing sugar next year

Thank you for the heads up, kind sir. We had a lot of fun, and swilled a lot of yummy booze. Do you have any other tips?

Sure did. We showed up, mentioned something about an EPC company sending us over, and that we might not be on the list, to which the woman mentioned a name, to which we replied "Yeah ...**** told us about it"
Presto. We got our name tags, and started the boozing. We got pictures on a fake chuckwagon, ate some grub, and spent the whole time chatting with friendly people from Sunshine Village(which probably helped shield us from one of the hosts, who mentioned "I know you don't belong here, you had better keep in line") and generally had fun.
Oh, there were girls as well...

You said it. We've almost made it through the work week. I even got a "nice work keeping the product flowing this week" after stumbling in every day around 9:30.

I've gone toe to toe with Stampede 3 times so far.
I'm currently 0 and 3.

Technically today is the longest possible time until next stampede. So why not head down to the grounds and celebrate with some mini-donuts!!

The longest time between Stampedes when it is not Stampede - thanks for the catch.
My group from the office went to the grounds at 11:00 AM for lunch and the rodeo or something. I went home. I'm happy with my decision.
