Looking forward to seeing everyone.  Is anyone else interested in joining us?:)

Cheryl

It looks like we'll have a mini Apple Harvest Rally!!
I think there will be at least 9 campers at my last count.
What fun!!! Wear your most comfortable walking shoes!
Tracy, do you have directions on how to get to the fairgrounds from the campground? If not, I will try to bring an extra copy.

I do not have directions, so if you could bring an extra copy I would appreciate it.  Do you have any other plans for the weekend?  What nights will you be camping?:)

Cheryl

We will be there Friday morning until Monday afternoon.
The men usually burn wood, drink beer, and play cards.
The ladies spend most of Saturday and some of Sunday at the Fairgrounds. It is nearly impossible to see all that there is to see at the Fairgrounds in one day, my feet don't last that long, so we stretch it out over two days. We'll have a campfire every night. Come on over and join us.
Cheryl and the gang
P.S. I'll try to remember extra directions, and there is admission charged to get into the fairgrounds ($7) but there is no charge for parking. If you can find someone up in that area that can look for admission coupons in the newspaper, there generally are $1-off coupons available. We never get them in this area.

Looks like if we can get wedged in to a site, we will be joining the party.  We plan to arrive Friday afternoon and stay until Monday.

Look forward to seeing everyone...

I contacted the contact e-mail on the Apple Festival website and inquired about coupons. The one near Morgantown (French Creek) has an online coupon and I thought I was missing Gettysburg's...but it seem I was not...here is the reply. I do have the right Apple Festival Correct?

Thanks for your interest in our festival, however, we will not be having discount coupons. The general admission price is $8.00. You can purchase advance tickets by sending a check to us now and get advance tickets for $7.00 each by mail.

Our address is
The National Apple Harvest Festival
PO Box 38
Biglerville, PA 17307.

If you choose to do this please write the amount of advance tickets that you want to purchase in the check memo and we will send them to you.

Thanks for your interest in our festival.
