We even have 100' of snow fencing so I could get more. But to do 1000' or so, that would be some bucks, and with posts every 20 feet? or so...
This would be a one day thing and I haven't done a one day. I rely on a multi week series to even out any weather issues; a one day will get killed if it rains.
Yeah, 1000' could add up fast, especially if you have to do both sides of the street. If you could essentially force pre-reg it would help mitigate the weather (though then you'd have to scrape a lot of people up in the rain, and probably need the bales and fencing for sure). Tying it to another event could help a lot.
