I just want to see JoeCamper with a Harley shirt and a cowboy hat on trying to catch the brass ring on the merry-go-round.
Pushing all the little kids out of the way so he can get an "outside" horsey  ;D ;D

Hey Joy, Why wait till Sept. to go to Hooters  for wings  when we can go in June, July or Aug.
  My DD's  are looking forward to another round of lazier tag with you at Knoebels.
I love the location for this rally with one of our  DD's  going to Bloomsburg University.

WOW!! All I did was timidly post the question would there be any interest in going to Lake Glory in September and look what happened.  Lots of enthusiastic members reserving sites, talking about a 6'4' big kid with a cowboy hat on riding the Merry-Go-Round  :cowboy:,wet T-shirt contests on the log ride  :D, hamsters chasing each other on a wheel  :tease:and of course hooters.  8) You are right JoeCamper, be careful what you wish for.  I am glad this wish is coming true.  :dance:

Atta girl Christine - I love it!!  I know this location is so great for you and Steve to see your babies.  I, too, can't wait for this trip and of course another round of laser tag!!  Bring it boys.

I was talking with Joe about this yesterday and I was getting interested in this trip but I just checked out the website for Knoebels.  Nathan will still be too young for the kiddie rides  :'(  We will have to wait until Nathan gets a little older, he will only be 2 by then.  This sounds like a good trip for next year for us.

One of our friends wants to join us on this one.  Since they're not on here, I'm posting on their behalf.  The deposit is paid, and they'll take #30.

Great to hear!  We are talking about doing a potluck breakfast (9 am...ish - coffee earlier)at this rally since there is so much food at Bloomsburg Fair and Knoebels Amusement Park.  We can discuss it more as it gets closer.  We will still be doing group campfires at night.

Wish we could go  🙁  but a group of us will be in VT at a friends house riding our bikes & peeping at the leaves.
We used to take the kids there when they were young and well the biggest kid, Dad, just loves that old coaster!!!
We seemed to have missed this last year also.  Is it always the third weekend in September?

Hi.  My friend just informed me that she received  four discounted tickets for Knobbles as a result of a food purchase at Weiss (in Sparta).  The tickets are good till the end of this year.  I do not know any other details but  I will be checking this out next week at the Weiss in Mainsfield.

It looks like we only have 3 sites left in our block for Lake Glory next month.  It's a great time of the year to camp.

Saint Paula will be helping with coordinating this trip.

I hoped we could make it again this year, but it looks like we are going to be in Rhode Island for our family vacation that got pushed back from June.  We did visit the park last week with my sister in law and nephew, it's always a fun place to visit.

Looks like there are still three sites left. My first trip to Knoebels Park was last September with several  of the CanvasCampers members.  The park, as many described to me, is like a step back in time.  Just a great family oriented place.  You will have to watch for a certain  :cowboy:, who will remain nameless, when your kids ride the  carousel with the copper ring grab. This  :cowboy: frightens the children with his big cowboy hat and holster belted at his waist with a Matt Dillon original gun inside. He grabbed all of the rings while the other children were crying for their parents. Several of the members went to the Bloomsburg Fair on Friday and Saturday as well.  They brought back stories of people watching, the Penn State homemade ice cream, and tons of other great food, and  vendors selling their hand crafted wares.  We all had a great time at the Lake Glory campsite. With everyone busy going to the Bloomsburg Fair and Knoebels, we still managed to have two gatherings around an evening fire.  This year, we are planning to have a potluck breakfast on Saturday morning.  More will be posted about this in a few weeks. If anyone would like to post some ideas for the breakfast, please do so. My family is not huge breakfast eaters, so ideas and recipes are welcome.  Hope to see all of the sites filled.

BadSeed, DH, corrected me. They are brass rings not copper.  The  :cowboy: wears a set of something else made of brass when he rides the carousel and takes all of the brass rings. We will have to call upon Cowgirl Joy to rope that man off to jail.

I'm calling upon the assistance from all you CanvasCampers who attended the 2010 Camp Glory rally.  Would appreciate your contribution of stories relating to camping at Lake Glory, day at Knoebels and the Bloomsburg Fair. I'm picking on the poor  :cowboy: too much.  I know there are other stories to tell.  If my memory serves me correctly, there were some great stories about the log ride and laser tag. Would appreciate your contribution.

Almost forgot one other funny memory of Christine chasing the cat away from her campsite.  When she gets mad, she is sooo funny.
