How do I get to Kickoff Jam?

By train
No direct passenger rail to the venue was found. Drive, fly in, or use a shuttle instead.
By bus & public transit
No scheduled intercity bus or public transit route to the venue was found. Drive, fly in, or use a shuttle instead.
Taxi & rideshare
Taxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.
🅿 Parking
Cost the page's detailed parking/day-pass pricing table found in search results is explicitly for MBOTMA's separate August Fest event at the same campground, not Kickoff Jam; not carried over to avoid conflating the two events). Camping attendees park with their site (per the campground's 'each site includes 1 vehicle plus camping rig; fees apply for extra vehicles' policy) rather than using the separate day lot. No rideshare-only zone or overflow-lot policy was found this is a small rural private campground, not a large-scale festival with tiered parking zones
🚙 Car hire
Compare car hire at STC
Rural campground ~20-25 miles from the nearest airport (STC) with no public transit reaching Richmond car hire (or a rental from Minneapolis-St Paul for attendees flying into the larger MSP hub instead) is the realistic option for fly-in attendees

Yes, on site camping is available.
Facilities
Camping site types 2
Camping is booked directly with the campground, not through MBOTMA attendees call 320-597-2740 and request the 'Bluegrass Special' rate; no dollar figure is published for Kickoff Jam specifically. (A separately-published $120 tent / $150 RV reserved-camping rate exists for MBOTMA's other, ticketed August Fest event at the same campground NOT carried over here to avoid conflating the two distinct events.)
Full hookups (water, electric 50 amp, sewer) for RVs up to 40 ft confirmed via third-party campground-directory site specs; same 'Bluegrass Special' direct-booking arrangement as car camping applies for Kickoff Jam weekend
