13th Annual Ohio Fall Gathering

Please join us for our 13th Annual Ohio Fall Gathering at CAESAR CREEK STATE PARK   in SW Ohio, near the junction of I-71 & State Rt. 73.    Official rally dates are: Wednesday late afternoon, Sept. 27th, arrival, and Sunday morning, Oct. 1, departure, but feel free to come sooner or stay later. NOTHING  IS  MANDATORY. YOU WILL NOT BE PRESSURED TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY ACTIVITY!!  Come as a stranger and leave as family!!  We have LOTS of Casita models, some Scamps,and many other models of campers, large & small, that typically come. ALL campers welcome!  Pets are allowed on all campsites, but have had several requests that pets not be brought to the group meals.  This is within driving distance of LOTS of places to go visit.  

AS SOON AS YOU BOOK, PLEASE SEND ME A PRIVATE  MESSAGE THROUGH THIS SITE, WITH YOUR SITE NUMBER, DATES OF ARRIVAL & DEPARTURE,  AND YOUR PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS SO I CAN BE SURE YOUR RECEIVE ALL UPDATES.  

IF ANYONE WANTS TO COME JUST TO LOOK AT CAMPERS, PLEASE PRIVATE MESSAGE ME THROUGH THIS SITE AND GIVE ME YOUR  PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS,  YOUR HOME ADDRESS,  & PHONE NUMBER.  I WILL THEN SEND YOU INFO ON WHEN YOU MAY TOUR THE CAMPERS DURING THE RALLY.  YOU WILL HAVE TO BE REGISTERED (NO CHARGE) IN ORDER TO TOUR.  I WILL MAKE YOU A NAME BADGE WHICH WILL GIVE YOU ACCESS. 

Don't forget to use your Senior passes, etc.for a discount if you qualify.  Reserve your site now online @ https://www.reserveamerica.com/      or call: 1-866-OHIOPARKS.   The group "dining and activities area" will be behind sites 233-234.   We are in the same loop as last year, sites 202-287.  Sites on the campground map that have a half-moon shape are only 20 amp electric.   If you camp on sites 245-282, there is a small path between sites 270-271 & 257-258, shown on the attached map,  that cuts thru to the group meals.  If it rains, it will be quite muddy thru there, as it is a heavily wooded area so sun doesn't dry it up fast.  These are very large sites, and will be quite a distance to walk to the group functions if you don't book early!  Sites are booking up fast,so don't wait to book!

Wednesday evening will just be a light snack night to get acquainted.  
Thursday evening we will have soup and snacks night. 
We love having campfires every evening, and designate Friday evening as "campfire meal night".  It is fun to use pie irons, & to grill hot dogs, hamburgers, etc.   

We have a BIG group potluck breakfast on Sat. morning.  Sat. evening is our final group potluck meal.  

As we get closer to the rally, I will send out sign-up sheets and lots more suggestions and info for the meals.  This isn't set in concrete, and I welcome all suggestions! 

I would love to hear from any of you if you are interested in holding any type of activities that you would be willing to be in charge of , like exercise group,  group hikes, arts and crafts, demos for iron pot cooking, line dancing, playing an instrument by the campfire, etc.   Don't be shy!  If you play a banjo, guitar, or any instrument, we would love for you to bring it to our evening campfires & play for us!

Please do NOT post your personal info OR MINE on any web site for security reasons!   I keep a list of which sites people are on.  If you want near a friend, let me know.   FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS! Can't wait to see everyone again!

Sandy, Rally coordinator

There are only 2 sites left in our loop: 206 & 282.  They say tent sites, but they have 20-amp electric on them.  If you have booked a site for this rally, be sure you send Sandy W a private PM with your email address, your names, site #, & phone number.  I am making the final batch of name tags & sending out updates & rally schedules, etc.  I need this info by Sat., Sept. 23 at the latest, please.  Also, if you want to tour campers, please send me the same info by private PM.  You must have name badges to tour (free).  Thanks, Sandy
