This is another yearly campout location that provides both a camp ground for dry camping and an adjacent RV Park. We had 10 rigs in attendance including 2 guest. The 2 guest (Linda Pringle & Bob Simpson) had met all the requirements for membership and were welcomed into the chapter.
The weather was cloudy and windy on Thursday but turned sunny and warm on Friday and Saturday. All the food was wonderful starting with a welcome dinner on Thursday evening of Sloppy Joes provide by the campout hosts. The campout host provided breakfast burritos on both Friday and Saturday mornings (see picture).
On Friday the Washers tournament was won by Terry Herbert and on Saturday a Cribbage tournment was won by Shirley Neth. We finished off our campout on Saturday with a wonderful pot luck dinner.
