We moved the old one out just as the new one was coming up the drive. It was quite a sight seeing the old building going down the road all lopsided. It only had two tires on it and the slide room wouldn’t go in. The new office is a lot longer than the old one, with plenty of room for storage. We’ll get our exercise in every day from walking around all day.

There is still plenty of time to come camping with us. Some of the upcoming events include Halloween in October, which will take place over two weekends (the first two in October) again this year. We are filling up fast so if you want to come out and enjoy Trick ‘r Treating and the other fun events for those weekends you need to make reservations soon.
