To Camp With Our Group Within The Fort:
A camp reservation can be made with your "Will Attend" on this event page, or you can use email - via our profile. *PLEASE* - DO NOT CALL THE PARK! The Fort has been reserved just for us. To simplify reservations, I will provide the list of the "Fort Campers" with the $$ to Parks. So, to reserve your camp(s), include in your 'Will Attend' log, "a camp site please."
COST:
$25 per tent for two days camping (Friday and Saturday).
$5 Night Event (possibly less - TBA) with a
park pass per vehicle.
Prefer to camp in the regular campground with your camper or gear? Feel free to make your reservations via the state parks reservation system by clicking on the 'related link' at the top of this event page.
Each vehicle will need a $5.00 parking pass. There will be no vehicle traffic in the camping area, however you will be allowed to drive to the fort area to drop off your gear before parking. There will be water and restrooms for us but no electric. Showers can be used in the camp ground. Hammock campers: No trees available but feel free to bring your stands/tripods! The tents can stay up as long as they don't block the daily visitors. Tent canopies are allowed.
We encourage pictures at the events and hope to see them posted with your "attended" log. They might end up being in
the photo gallery.
