LAKESIDE RV PARK - Pahrump Nevada - May 2012

May 2012 — The Dust Devils had a big turnout for our 4 day rally at the Lakeside RV Park in Pahrump NV. The weather was perfect and allowed us to play a lot of games outside and the food was fabulous, as always. We had a big surprise while playing a cribbage tournament in the grassy area near the RV's. The sprinkler system came on and soaked all the players, cribbage boards and cards. We did finished the tournament as soon as we got everything dried out.

This campout was at Beatty NV RV Park and is the first time we have held a campout here. We had 17 rigs in attendance. The weather was really good and with a lot of good friendship, games and food, food and more food. We had a fund raiser bake sale that raised $134.00. A new member (Ed Underhill) was added to Chapter membership list. Games, games, games - Horseshoes, Washers, Cribbage, and Mexican Train kept everyone busy when they were not eating or BSing. 


We had to instruct Vi that you are not suppose to light the filter end of a cigarette and Denise had a hard time finding her glasses when they were on her face.
