Buy a cheap tent from craigslist. One that completely zippers closed. Wax the zippers with bike chain wax (not grease). Cut an old sheet to fit the mesh openings of the tent, hot glue around the edges of the windows. close the zipper every time you leave the tent. Buy a second tent for storage. Sle...

I agree with ALL of this. There is no practical way to make this tent dust or rain proof, let alone wind proof. Anything you do attempt will likely be blown away and you'll create moop, or worse--someone will be injured by flying debris. I use a Springbar tent now for 14 years and it's holding up r...

In modern tent marketing naming for new tents, you want a 4-season tent or Winter expedition tent. They have sealed vents. Many people love canvas Springbar-style tents with sealed vents and a sealed floor. The high tech Shiftpod, invented by a friend, is an ice fishing shelter with a floor. Anothe...

Tnx!
I've made it so far, hopefully i'll get lucky in the sale

Unless you can get tickets from another person, you bought your allotment of tickets and now you are out of the regular sale. I'm not sure why you gave up your tickets and put them in someone elses name. The DGS is just a conduit to get tickets. They are not associated with a particular camp, altho...

Hi there, I had DGS tickets this year. Due to personal reasons I'm traveling with different people then I thought to BM. So I decided to give the DGS tickets back to the camp because i'll be going with friends who are in a different camp. So, I just transferred the tickets out of my ticketfly accoun...
