Updated News About On-Site Camping
Regionals Camping Guidelines -contact Don with any other questions or concerns.
1. All camping sites (serviced sites and unserviced) will be approx. 25 ft. by 50 ft.
2. One camping site may accommodate one motorized vehicle (excluding buses) and its occupants.
i.e. A motorhome, one travel trailer and tow vehicle, one tent-trailer and tow vehicle, one car/van and tents. For Example: If 3 people come in one van and each wants a tent and all this will fit
3. Generators only between 6am and 9 pm.
4. One area will be designated "Generator free" for the comfort of tenters and others who prefer not to share with even very quiet generators.
5. Those requesting a pump out may be in the same area. Easier for the "Honey Wagon".
6. A reminder to all - there is ONLY one shower. Who knows how much hot water there is!
