Yough Summer O.C.T. Event Camping Info 7/21-23

Post by Alicia »

Hey folks, we're only a month away from our Summer Gathering so it's not too early to reserve camping.
Please see below stolen from Liz's post on the Community forum.
There will be separate threads for paddling as the date gets closer (novice, intermediate & advanced).
The program will be a potluck dinner.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Looking forward to it!
Thanks, Alicia

Please remember to make your camping reservations in advance.

I spoke to Candi today & confirmed there is a grill at our pavilion. Bring charcoal.

From CaNews:

Dinner: On Saturday, a potluck dinner starts at 6 pm for
those who wish to share. If participating, please bring a
main dish and a side dish to share. (suggested: last name
starting with A-F bring salad; G-L dessert; M-R appetizer;
and S-Z Side Dish).

Looking forward to it!

Sorry, Ole, no, but the pavilion has a grill adjacent to it.
We will supply paper products.

See you soon!
