I used to live 2 blocks from there as a kid. That is the area they used to do the Raytown round-Up Days (fall carnival). Maybe they still do them there, I dunno. All that stuff is basically the same today as when I was a kid, I drove by jsut a few weeks ago and it was like a time warp. Even the old drug store is still there. The area for the teams is going to be half paved, half grass, as described above. The other tents are going to be on pavement. There is a slope down on the west side, Judges tent woudl be at the lowest point, but otherwise is pretty level. Those train tracks are still back there, but have been shut down for a long time.
