Lori, I think we might be down for this. It may be a Fri-Sun trip for us though. We will have 2A 1C

Whoo-Hoo!!!

[griffsmom]

Viking, that's great!!!

 
I will be contacting the cg next week and getting details for everyone now that we are getting closer to this rally. I'll post more when I get the info.

Lori,
 
We were wondering if we could arrive 0ne day sooner and leave one day later. It is such a drive for us and we would like to extend our time if possible....Do I call myself or let you handle it? Also could we be close to the playground cause we are bringing the grandkids.

Ditto for us.  We will probably come up Friday and leave Monday.

Lori,
we has so much fun 'crashing' the rally at Easter, Dee and Brian talked us into this rally, so you can reserve a nice site for us, one that gets some morning sun, and afternoon shade, and is not too far from all the activities, yet far enough from the campfire so we are not disturbed by noise should we retire early.
So sign us up for 2 Adults and 4 children and 1 dog.

Looking forward to checking out your new rig. I can't believe we are on our fourth year with our Hybrid.

Buellton is holding its annual Flower Festival this weekend and so there is no group price break. Sorry; I know its expensive, but you do get full hook ups (W/E/S/C) and free Wifi for your money, not to mention all the fun and memories that go with camping with this crazy group! Those'll last you a lifetime!! :eyecrazy: [/color]

 Hi - I'm new to the Arvee club so I hope I'm typing and posting this correctly.  I live on the central coast of Calif and am familiar with the Flower Festival which is held anually in Lompoc the last full weekend of June; this event is not held in Buellton.

Lompoc is about a quick 20 minute drive west of Buellton.

The parade lasts pretty much two hours beginning at 10am.  If you have children and would like to enjoy the carnival rides, you can purchase all day wrist bands to ride all day (must be purchased by a certain date and perhaps can be mailed to you?). The best days for riding the rides is on Thursday, Friday, or Sunday when the crowds are smaller.  The festival has live entertainment, arts, flower field tours, and food booths. I'm not sure, but in the past, they have also provided some kind of tour of Vandenberg AFB (missle's are launched from this base).  There is also wine tasting in Lompoc although I am not familiar with how this works or where.

There is no entrance fee into the park, and you only pay a parking fee if you wish to be right next to the park, otherwise, there is a lot of parking on the side streets.  

I have provided some links below to help learn more about the festival.  I won't be camping that weekend, but now that I know that these rally's exist, we may join you all in the future!

51 more wake-ups!!!!

You just made my day!  THAT is manageable!  Hey - I contacted the campground to extend our stay and decided to wait until I know my exact spot number because the girl was nice, but confusing and I was afraid we'd have to move spots or something.  And...we're still waiting to hear about our 4th child joining us - it's still up in the air because his family may have plans.
