CAMPING THIS WEEKEND

Alrighty.....there seems to be a lot of interest in camping (which pleases me to NO END!!!!) this weekend. Chris and I were going to come up on saturday, but think it'll be a good idea for as many as possible to be there to hold spots for those coming saturday.

So please post if (and ONLY IF) you are going to be camping, and which nights.
As you reply, I will add you to the list below.


CAMPING FRIDAY:
Chris and I
Jimmy and Robby
Adam
Steven and Tom & 'the boys'




CAMPING SATURDAY:
Chris and I
Jimmy and Robby
Adam
Steven and Tom & 'the boys'
Keith and family
Angela and Jeff & Grace (as long as there are no bears)

Me and Robby will be there sometime Friday, possibly in the afternoon before you guys get there.

Count me for Friday night and Saturday night...I'll be the one starting the fire....lol

should I bring cardboard?

We will be camping Saturday night. Possibly two tents. Not sure about Friday. (Pattey, I sent you a PM)

Look forward to meeting everyone.

nooo....I'm bringing a special firestarter...hehehehehehe

we will be camping Saturday night. We're going to have my jeep, my wife's car, and two tents.

junk yard and i with the 2 kids will be camping friday into sat. ill be having the 10 man huge tent. where are yous planning on camping there. so we can look for each other. ill prolly be up there between 6 and 8

We should be there around 7-7:30. Hopefully earlier.

I was thinking that we could try to claim the end of the campground....not in the trees, but the new end. As you pull in, follow along the campsites (to the right) and around the bend as if going out to the trails. They're nice and flat for the most part. No tree cover, but it's been nice there the last two times we went.

First person there can try to save a few spots. Then, as we grow in number, we can kinda build our tents on an outer ring, spreading out, and save the spaces on the inside for the late-comers and saturday people.

I cannot guarantee that we'll be able to have everyone in one spot, but I will try like crazy to. Promise.

Can't wait to see everyone!!!

Sam and I won't be up until Saturday. Another couple from PA Jeep show (Ron and Connie) are planning to come along if that is Ok. What time do we need to be there by on Saturday?

Sam and I may camp on Saturday night. See you then.

Sam and Dennis, that's awesome if you bring Ron and Connie.

As for the time we meet....we ask that everyone be registered by 8:30 and airing down. We hit the trails at 9. (of course, there are always variables and this isn't in stone...but this is what we ask....that way we all get more trail time)


ALSO....FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE NOT YET MEMBERS AT RAUSCH:

Please check out this link about membership fees (they explain it better than I, but if you have a question, PM me)

Also...and I know I really do not have to tell you all this stuff, but please read our CLUB RULES if you have not already...you can find it at this thread: https://alphaomegaoffroad.forumotion.com/2009-trail-run-schedule-f25/trail-run-rules-t409.htm Don't let the MUSTS scare you....if you need something or are missing something, let us know.


This is going to be a great weekend!

What time should we be there Saturday morning in order to get registered, and get the tent up and the Jeep unloaded? I gotta work backwards to figure out what time to leave the hotel. And are you going to meet anywhere for breakfast Saturday, or just eat at the campsite? Someones phone number would be nice to have, too. Just in case we get held up. Thanks.

Anyone that needs to call me can at 443 866 1500.

No we are not meeting for breakfast Sat. Park office opens at 8 and we want to be on the trails by 9. Gate to the park should be open all night so get there as early as you need too.

I will be gone this week so I will try to keep updated with my blackberry but... Pattey you are in charge (like I ever was to begin with)

We ask that everyone be registered by 8:30 and airing down. We hit the trails at 9.

As for setting up your tent, I have no idea how long it takes you, so I guess plan accordingly. Everyone always eats their own breakfast on the way (I assume) and then we all eat lunch together on the trails. We'll all be gathering (for those that wish to) at the Gooseberry Farms Family Restaurant on Saturday evening. Then head back to the camp for a fire and laughter. <---always happens




So, everyone, without trying to ::

Meeting at our camp area (as you pull in, follow along the campsites (to the right) and around the bend as if going out to the trails) to air down. Don't forget to register at the house when coming in. (I think it opens at 8am)
Don't forget lunch and drinks for you and your families on the trails for both days.
My number is 443-866-1035 and Chris is 443-866-1500 for anyone that needs to have it.

Der.

can you remember to bring my big birthday card from last year.
cant wait to see you all there. hopefully this time i can go all weekend.

HAHAH! You betchya!

For those who are wondering why it's a "birthday card from last year".....

Last PA JEEP SHOW (2008) was Alpha/Omega's first show...we were 19 days old as a club...and we had a tent....and not much else. We had some cheesy business cards printed off the computer, some flyers I had made up and we had our banner and some Christian tracts.

We also had a big musical birthday card for Steven (rockready) who was in Iraq at the time. We had people that were walking by sign it and it was amazing how many people gladly did. The even more awesome thing was some of the awesome things people said.

Anyway....we forgot to give it to Steven time and time again....this time, I will remember!!!

Ang, Grace and I will try to camp out so please save a spot for us. Gracie thinks the bears will get her but i told her that pooh bear is a nice bear.

I'll try to remember my bear spray and she can keep it with her in the tent.

I hate to back out of our first trip, but we will not be able to camp this weekend. We ARE still going for the day saturday though. we look forward to meeting everyone!

No problem....we're not going to torture you tooooo badly.

Seriously, don't sweat it. If you like wheeling with us, you'll find there are a thousand other opportunities to camp!!! We look forward to seeing you saturday!!!

I should be there by 4 on friday afternoon. See you there!
