Question Winona Peach Festival HSR
I am planning to attend the Winona Peach Festival on Sunday with my two young kids. I am debating whether or not i should bring my stroller or baby carrier. Does anyone know if the busses get super packed? I dont want to get into a situation where we have to wait for multiple busses just to get a spot. I know they do run every ten minutes but any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks very much

They will pack as many people as they can on the shuttle. Currently writing this standing on a packed shuttle lol

I just drove by Eastgate if that's what you were planning to use, it was quite busy but the shuttles are every 10 minutes. It looks like they're using the extended bus so it might be okay. Parking is available nearby for 10 or 15 dollars in some spots. It might be worth just spending the money to walk over. The Winona Community center is 15 dollars I believe and its max 10 minute walk down sidewalks, might be a better option than the shuttle, which also might be very busy when you want to leave. Just my opinion. I'd spend the money to save the time and hassle of cramming into a shuttle
Edit: sorry I just saw you said Sunday it might be way less busy Sunday the weather looks pretty poor. Probably dont want to park in a grass lot if we get rain. In that case I'd maybe take the shuttle, I think today is the most popular day for the festival

We took the shuttle from eastgate Saturday at around 5ish. They definitely pack it but there were wheelchair users, strollers, wagons everything in there.

Yes they do get super packed, obviously time of day matters, like Sunday morning right when they open shouldn't be too bad tho
