Thanks G2--second week in September.
All the info I gathered from the locals in Jerome was that the show hasn't
happened this year and the location was at the old mine. I also poked around
on thesamba and the AZ bus club which had lots of info on previous shows but no
date that I could find for 2008.
Trey, whenever you are ready to take the 71 you'll need a co-pilot.

Electric?
Showers?
Not the same Jerome I've been to several times unless they made some
significant changes between years 16 and 17.
No showers, no water. Pack it in or buy it in town.
It's on private property, not at a campground. Here's Don's site:

(Big Bertha is used as the camp alarm clock. Give Don $5 and he'll fire
her up -- 10,000 cubic inch gas engine --- 25 horsepower --- hill
shaking backfire when he shuts her down.)
and a review (biased for AZ travel advertising)

The Jerome shoe is the second FULL (Fri/Sat/Sun) weekend in September so
this year it's most likely the weekend of the 13th. TheSamba.com is the
place to poke around for definite dates before they publish the flyer
for the current year (usually not up until July some time).
