I just looked at their website concerning entrance security. It says a 30.06 will be posted at entrances. I didn't see it but may have missed it. Here's the link.

Just got home for the 3rd day in a row. Had to go ad part of work. I asked the LEO at the tent I was in. He said they were wrong to take away my knife and he didn't know anything about the entire grounds being posted 30.06. He suggested asking for an officer since the people working the metal detectors are minimum wage workers with no training.

I wish I had thought through it better. As said before I was disarming anyway so that didn't bother me. Not asking for clarification on the knife is slightly different, not because of value but principle.

I never saw either sign. I've been in two different entrances in 3 days. Honestly it wasn't a big deal to me since I had planned to disarm anyway. But my usual instinct is to look for the signs and I didn't see them. Didn't see any gun buster signs either (I know they don't matter - just saying). If someone wanted to raise the issue I think it would be valid.

I was there last night. When entering the carnival area to get to the cookoff, everyone had to go through a metal detector. When I emptied my pockets, I had a small pocket knife and a larger knife. They didn't recognize the larger one as a knife, but made me throw the small one away or return it to my car but that was too far for the value of the knife. I wasn't carrying my gun because I planned to have a few adult beverages.

So, I guess its safe to say that you should leave the gun in the car.
