Do we register at the site or do we pay the 6 bucks/person to one of our officers at the campground?

Last year you paid at the campground office. Tell them who your with and how many nights you'll be staying and they will drive you down to the campsite.

Also if anyone can bring some wood for a community campfire as well as lanterns they are always appreciated. Weather looks good so far.

I will bring some wood Ben.  We had some people bail out on us recently.  We are down to 29 people throughout the weekend if everyone shows.  We have three extra campsites so there is plenty of room to spread out.  Since we had people bail on us if you know of any members that thought it may be too late, it's not.  Just let me know on this post and we will get you in.  Thanks...........Tim

I am ready, if I can find some wood should I  bring a little. If every body just bring a log or two would that help?

Thats a shame those guys wont be there. I am sure we will have more wood then is needed but it would stink to run out.

I've got a crap load of wood I could bring.  Is there no wood restrictions there like a PA state parks?

Would bring mine but I need it for the PTA Rondy. Besides it  is the ugly orange one and would probably scare some of the kids.
