Default Group arrival info?

So planning on overnighting in madision wi tonight. Mooney mass arrival based there too
I have a list of group arrivals on saturday but just wondered if anyone has any tips on skirting the big group arrivals. Eg, I can adjust to whatever, but i see cherokees get 10am mooneys get 1130. Would an 1045 over ripon work, or how massive and long are these groups. Happy to give them whatever room they need but is it a 15 minute of packed plane parade or a pokey 1.5 hours of planes. Just wondered what would be a good plan as kosh on saturday is the plan. I guess finding a nice slot just before or just after the groups would be ideal but dont wish to infringe on their times.

Generally, the massed arrivals don't take that long. I've regularly seen them land three abreast on Rwy 36. The other characteristic of massed arrivals is that they are very often way off on their arrival time.

Good luck.
