Come join us for the the event at the state park overlooking Lake Winnebago, near Appleton.
This is the 3rd time the WGA has visited this great park for the annual Geo-Campout.
We think it will be the perfect location and should be our largest Geo-Campout ever.
Event will take place on Saturday, May 16th from 8 a.m. until 10 p.m.
List your Will Attends now to join in the fun and camaraderie!
While daytrippers and Hotel/Motel campers are always welcome, to get the full Geo-Campout experience you need to sleep outdoors in the park. The WGA has reserved two group campsites for tent campers that are available on a first-come, first-serve basis (60 campers max).
Camping is not required. Click Here to find a motel, or just stop in for the day. Here is a link to other camping options nearby.
Campsite revervations are now limited and 1st Come 1st Served!
