WARNING

Tent products are manufactured for use as temporary structure and do not meet structural code, unless

common sense & knowledge of local conditions with the installation instruction guidelines.

‘BEFORE YOU DIG’ (hammer stakes)

By Law you are required to contact your local “Call before you dig” number before you plan to dig. 

After calling, your local utility company will mark the location of underground utility lines. Laws 

from state to state vary on how far in advance you must call.

Planning ahead and checking with your state’s program is always a smart idea. Failure to obtain a line 

location before digging can result in a substantial fine. Please find your local “call before your dig 

number” by going to
