Some guys will be there about 5:30-6pm, others a little later. Where abouts do you live?
If you get there when Louie (atalas) does, you can see how he sets up his C11 + Losmandy mount. He's planning to do some imaging tomorrow night.
I've got an EQ platform (for a dob/newt), not an EQ mount, so you won't learn much about polar aligning from watching me put it on the ground and turn it on
