April Camp-out Ideas

[Dee4j]

I think the question is:why aren't you paying members of the group?

yes especially since it's FREE

Nice looking campground, but what do you do after 11pm if we can not have a fire
sccampers always have a fire late into the night

Not good I see where this could turn out to be a Smithwood.... Sccampers are fire people.....I did not see that before Thanks Brad.....Oh well have to go there on a non sccamper event.......

Remember, drinking does not require fire!:D

We have camped at Pinezanita several times. The owners are super nice. We like it there.

:eyecrazy: Well, let's see. Not paying members cuz I'm soooo confused as to whether there really are dues or not (as I've read many of the dues referenced in what I thought was 'jest', but didn't really know for sure).
 
I've wanted to join up with y'all, at one of the rallys (never done that before), but the timing just didn't work out, plus the distance, for us, was a bit prohibitive, at the time. But .... I'm waiting to see a rally planned a little closer to home for us, then we'll join in.
 
Also, the issue with the campfire curfew is dictated by the fire marshall.  Pinezanita was able to allow campfires when no other campgrounds in the area allowed them.  The owners (Stanley's) have a very good working relationship with the fire district and have special provision attached to their fire permit.

Dues are normally paid in the form of participation in campfire activities........oh ya........then there is the small matter of singing the SCCAMPERS theme song during the 1st potluck dinner.......we'll fill you in on that more at your 1st camp-out.............. :p

If you take anything else that I say seriously....you'll have to sing the song twice.......while standing on your head.......drinking a "Blue-bomber"..............:p

I think that its this groups way of TRYING to be funny.  Not exactly my brand of humor... but then again I'm not a member of AARP either. :p

ANYWAY..... to be exact there are NO dues... this is just a casual group of peeps who live in Southern California and like to plan camp outs/ rallys together rather then camping alone.  So if you decide to join one of the rallys they arrange you would just pay whatever fee is associated with your camping spot. Sometimes they book an extra spot to have group campfire and potluck and everyone splits the cost for that spot.  Again its not an official group... theres no application, no treasurer and no dues............ just group of peeps who seem to enjoy camping with each other  Hope that honest info helps

Gracy is just trying to cut in on the profits..........someone always has to ruin it for me............I should be rich by now.......:swear:

I think that WaterDoctor needs to visit the post: What is SCCampers Anyway? http://www.arveeclub.com/showthread.php?t=66386 It should answer your questions about the group.

Wayne is also know as the group's official "Pot-Stirrer Man." You have to take most of his posts light-heartedly.

Is such a party pooper :yikes:
is she calling us old :compumad: and trying to say we are not funny :eyecrazy: say it ain't so :p

[waterdoctor]

OK everybody. I got straightened out on the dues issue, so I'm not confused anymore. :p With that being said, would somebody, please!!! send me the music for the SCCAMPERS song? I need time to rehearse it!!! :eyecrazy:

Seriously, though. I did know the song deal was a hoax.

I'm just waiting for a group outing that's close enough to me that I don't have to spend half a day driving to get there for a weekend campout. I need more time than that to unwind. Although, a Blue Bomber, or 2, might just do the trick. :rolleyes:

Thanks, everybody for setting me straight.
