I reserved site #88. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

[Stan@FourWheel]

I booked sites # 69 & # 71 for Tom and myself.

Shanley (another FWC owner) said he booked 2 sites already (1 for him & 1 for his friend).

The Raider's have booked their site already (Capa Moto couple that came last year with the Grandby).

Pretty sure Jason from American RV Company (our southern california dealer) has booked a couple sites for them to stay.

Best to get your sites booked ASAP if you are planning on attending, as we are going to fill up the campground this year !

: )

Looking forward to it already.

Fresh ocean air in the Fall.

We're on site #80, same as last year. Looking forward to seeing everyone again. Harv

I am very excited to attend and meet everyone - I picked up my camper last week!

I reserved spot 67 - it was very hot and smokey at San Mateo a few weeks ago and I will be able to demonstate the A/C unit.

On May 14th, the showers switched to a token system.
