On the course maps near the start/finish, I'm sure I saw it marked "group tents".

Does anyone know what groups have these tents?

I'm not in a group, but a friend going down is....I just asked him to check to see if his group Joints in Motion has a tent, but thought I'd ask you guys as well!:thumbsup2

I'm sure I'd not get access to their tent, and sure would not expect him to wait outdoors with me! (Next I'll be wondering if the Race Retreat is all sold out for the Dopey!)
 
Last year I saw a lot of tents lining the parking lot outside of the "Runner's Village". They're more meeting points for running groups than they are "tents" like the Race Retreat. No walls, seating, etc.
I think the amenities are specific to each group.
If you were trying to meet a friend, they'd be a good, easy place to do so.
 
Thanks Tabetha. It's "Amenities specific to each group" part that worried me!
It's not the meeting up part that worried me as much as if his tent offered him a warm area to stay in with his group!
If so, I'm certainly expect him to avail of it rather than sticking it out in the cold until they HAD to go to the corrals (which would mean I'd be on my own til that tiime)
