I can try to get out there maybe Wednesday or Thursday.  What are we
shooting for here?  Do we need electricity and/or handicap
accessibility at all?  Do we prefer a certain section of the park over
another?  Sheltered groves start at 30 dollars without electricity
(and with or without handicap access), and go upwards of 70 dollars
including electricity (but no handicap access).  The cheapest one with
electricity (and no handicap access) would cost us 45 dollars.  The
cheapest one with electricity and handicap access would cost us 60
dollars.

See this page for a much easier to understand breakdown:

Also, I doubt we'd want an alcohol permit, as that adds another 50
dollars to the rental cost that likely wouldn't be worth the
investment.

Any feedback before I go pursue this?  Also, any preferential Sundays
in August compared to others?
