Here is their reply.
Hello Mr. Mulligan,

Thanks for letting us know about this.  There is a street light at the campground entrance.  It sounds like there is a good chance that either the bulb or the sensor has gone bad.  We will check on it and notify the power company to fix it.

Thanks,

Mike Moyer
Park Superintendent
Lums Pond State Park

Lums Pond is a beautiful state park with full hookup sites.  It is in an open grass area field with large sites that have limited shade.  FYI - The campground will not allow you to access the campground or your site until exactly 1pm check-in.

Big Thanks to everyone for some amazing food, tables and 10x10 canopies.

I'm all alone (with the exception of the dog I kid napped for company) It's gorgeous, and the weather is perfect!

I'll be making green bean casserole

Check-in is at 1 and the firewood is coming at 3. Can't wait to see everyone!

We will have a ton of buffet frames with sterno to keep everything warm. We will provide foil pans with lids (1/2 and full size) for you to transfer your food into - then put on it the sternos to keep everything hot.

Campground is sold out. Not sure total count for food
