I have never attended an event like this, would this be a good first event?  

Pretty much a beginner, just been shooting targets in the backyard off and on for the last decade or so, nothing to brag about.

In a word... Yes! It's cool to be around so many like minded people... Just think of what you can learn in a day by watching other archers shoot...

were the heck is Cos Cob, CT. Ha Ha ha!    actually don't care because I miss the trad only shoots and this is close enough it will have to do..

is that Ben Baily in the Pic?  sure looks like him anyway invite the local dealers too if you have any left I'd save up for these shoots so and go to those guys with a list of stuff I needed..

also for those with a really long trip is there any places to camp on or near the grounds or sleep in the truck the night before?

Some directions and info pulled from another poster:

Cos Cob is the middle of Greenwich - exit 4 or 5 from 95; 5 from the North. Exit 33 off of the Merritt/Hutch. If you’re coming up/across from NYC/NJ, it’s quicker to come up 95.

And if you have to cross the Hudson, it’s cheaper, easier and faster to check out the new Tappan Zee bridge, which is really impressive, except that they’ve renamed it the Cuomo; you can call it that if you want, but I’d expect a guy on his way to a “Trad-only” shoot would stick with the original name, given in recognition of the original tribe who lived there....

MetroNorth line, you can get off at either the Cos Cob or Greenwich stations.

Bring lots of arrows! Some of the shots back up to swampy areas and (this being New England) they pretty much all back up to rocks....

Looking forward to a great turn out!

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
