When I originally spoke to the campground, they were assigning site numbers to for the over 30' campers first and then filling in the smaller campers.  There are both size sites available within the same group of sites, you guys are on site R22.

Hi,  Welcome! Super easy to join in. Contact the campground directly, tell them you are arriving with this group canvascampers, it helps if you know a couple site numbers in advance when you're talking with them so they can let you know what's available of them. Once you have your site, post it here and you'll be added to the Rally list. 

Make sure you're following this thread, because soon the rally coordinator will post the theme for the Saturday night potluck. Then just chime in with what you would like to bring. We'll be coming up for the day, so we look forward to meeting you.

Any questions, anytime, just let us know, happy to help!

Weather permitting, we are planning to tube on Saturday.  We are going to stage vehicles at the end and start at a park on the Delaware, New Jersey side.  5.6 miles, 11 minutes from the campground.

Barb and I will be childless so we are bringing our Kayaks along with our tubes. So we will have extra tubes for anyone who needs them.

We are tubing on our own in public water with several businesses.

If you have a tube, we are tubing on our own.  If you need a tube, you can rent one.

The trips aren't guided either way.  Their business is tube rental and shuttle service.

Tubing will take about 3-4 hours and then shuttling vehicles.  We plan to leave the campground at 11 am.  That is in the morning for those who don't know. LOL

 

After going through some old paperwork, I came across a game we played at a 2011 rally.  It is coming back!  We will be playing a game at 5:30 on Saturday, 30 minutes before the potluck dinner.

 

Speaking of potluck, what's everyone bringing?

With the holiday theme in mind, I am thinking about bringing a spiral ham.  A size that I can cook in a crock pot.  Will also bring sandwich rolls. 

Are there any shopaholics interested in going to New Hope on Saturday,  instead of floating down the river?  Rusty and I are planning to float down the sidewalks of New Hope.
