I reserved site 236.
[size=12pt]Camping next to water was on my list of things I want to do![/size] Of course, I think I pictured a lake in my head, but this works too. 🙂
I'm a bit worried that my site is double-booked though, when I first asked about site 236 the guy said it was taken, then I mentioned I was with Canvas Campers and then he said the site was available. Hopefully they just moved someone who didn't request a specific site that wasn't with the group.
Has anyone been to yard sale weekend before?
We will be there, Wednesday April 18 to Sunday April 22, site # 14.
Due to medical reasons we need a sewer hookup so couldn't take one of the blocked sites. The campground does know that we are part of the group so our attendance counts towards the quota for a discount.
looking forward to meeting everyone.
I have updated everything at the beginning of the thread. If you have info missing, please post an update.
There has been discussion of having a summer picnic type dinner with hamburgers, hotdogs, lettuce, tomato, onion, pasta, macaroni and potato salads, maybe baked beans, pickles and olives, a few deserts, etc. I'm game for anything, let me know your thoughts?
