This was our 2nd attempt to do the old Great Escape. We did a trial run of this facility back it back in 2008. We use to do it as a regional event where it was an all night event. We cut down the checkpoints to 5 and spanned the game from 9:00 - 12:00am
Dan Merrel came and offered his mobile cookhouse. So the event finished with Hamburgers , hotdogs, fries and beans.
