Quote from: oldmooseActually he has no trailer. They have brought their tent and camped with us. Will they allow a tent on our site? If so that would free up a site.

Some of us have come in on Thursday. Would we need to make a separate reservation for the site you put us in?

  Hate to be the bearer of bad news but no TENTS are allowed in any of the camping sites. I have already asked that question when we there this last weekend. But they do have an area on the lowest level of this campground for tents. It's really not to far away. There is a very small stream running right now beside the tenting area.
   I will ask that question tomorrow. I would try to see if they would give the group rate since you would still be in the same spot the whole time. At that point in time, in Oct. I don't really see a problem for them to do that. But yes you would have to make a seperate reservation in the birch area. I will let you all know your site numbers by the 22nd of January!

Will they let someone put up a tent for the night then take it down by 10 in the morning......I forget where it was that we camped before and the CG had that rule......It's a pain but at least they would be together......?  Just a thought.

that was Pismo. usually they will allow a small tent as long as an RV is in the site. I think Bob was going to speak with them again, Sometimes that is the "rule" but with a big group they may allow it.

  Here is today's latest update in regards to the questions above. I called again today and talked to my reservation lady ( Lynne ).  Tents are not allowed anywhere except on the lowest level where it is designated for tents. The bad news that goes with this is that the weekend that we are there, a church group has reserved the entire tent area for their campout! :yikes:
  Another question came up about wanting to come in a day early. As long as we have 5 or less who want to get a jump start on the weekend and want to get there a day early, no problem as long as the sites are available. Lynne can  not forsee that far out and until it get's closer ( a couple of months before ) will they know but you can get the same group rate for that extra day! :D My advice is don't wait and let someone else jump in front of you. Wed. thru Fri. they are open till 10 pm. for reservations.
  Now for a little good news. I reserved the clubhouse for Sat. 10/20/07 from 8am to 2 pm. so we can have it for either breakfast potluck or lunch. There is a thought running thru my head about this but I am going to get some input from the pros before I commit to something.
  Please keep the questions coming and I will get back to all of you.

  Bill,  Your son's spot at the campground is his until the last day before I either turn it over to someone on the waiting list or he decides to stay at your place and come in for the day. If he gets a trailer or other rig, I just need to know what length it is going to be?

darksiders

please add Shirley Kenney 2A to the wait list

thx

Hi everyone,

  I am going to put this out for response from all of you. I have a breakfast idea. Instead of the usual potluck for saturday morning at Santa Paula, Dee and I are entertaining the idea that we would put together a pancake breakfast for our group. It would be at the clubhouse on sat. 10/20/07. We have been tossing different options around and think this is a win-win breakfast. We will be serving cafeteria style so portions will be age appropriate. No one at the end of the line will go hungry. The breakfast will be pancakes, bacon and sausage's. Possibly muffins and OJ. There are at least 5 roadside fruit stands on the way to the campground on hwy 126. that look great for additional offerings that morning.

  We are asking that a $5.00 per family to cover the cost of the food we will be buying. We know that you can't buy for yourself for that amount. So the whole family for $5 is a great deal. Let me know what you all think. After telling Dee the idea, she has already gone to costco, to price things out. With Dee helping me on the cooking and serving line and a few other helpers, we can do it. We need at least 95% of you to go along with this.

 Also to let you all know The group rate for each night that you stay is $20.00. I will need to make a deposit for that at a future date. I will let you know when and where to send it in.

This sounds like a great idea......except for 2 things. 1. Bob's cooking? :yikes: and # 2. Why do I have the feeling my camp stove is involved in this?

BootheBunch

Sounds great!  I will volunteer Brandon to help you out with the cooking!!  He is our breakfast maker here in our house....

BTW, Brandon and Logann are down camping at Rawhide Ranch (Bonsall, San Diego).  They are staying in a teepee...and I am sure they are freeeZING!  No heaters!

Sounds good to us............Just let us know when and where to send the $.....Or will it be added to the camping price?

We figure that the money for the breakfast would be collected at the door!
