...how about anyone from the east coast...?


Dear Randy,
As a representative of said coast, I fall into the category of "Thrilled to make it, if I can!".

Thank you for putting time and effort into this project. It will be EPIC, for certain.

I did not see a big camp fire pit, no Thermite this time?
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Mark,

Pop is at work so I don't know if he will have time to answer about the fire pit but I do believe when he was telling me about this facility that there currently is not a fire pit but they said they would likely be able to work with us for that accommodation. Will have to wait until he gets some spare time time confirm but I think that's what he said.

Monkey, the fire pits are similar to the KOA pits.

It is on the list of things I will sort out if this is the location selected.

as far as the numbers --  WOW -- it gets better every year!

That's a testament to our host. He really does a whole lot that we don't see.

Rick,

That is certainly correct!  In fact, it is an understatement!

Ride safe,

As originally posted by Frank. I was trying to merge topics and accidentally deleted his post about twin rivers.

I'd be leery of going there just because it's close to a "work" location and someone might want me to drop in and fix something they think is wrong..

Me too, but for me it's the crowds.  Getting into and out of S Lake is a bitch.  I'm looking at an option up north of Tahoe called Two Rivers Soccer Camp.  I think they're going to price us out of this due to a resort fee, but they'd be another Bar717 for those that did it only WAY BETTER.  They provide hot breakfast daily along with dinner, all family style and we'd be together in the lodge.  They have several gathering/fire-pit areas.  The entire facility would be ours and it is big...  they can handle 200+ people at once.  This is just before their soccer camps start up, so staff is there prepping and training.  They also have a great range of cabin and lodge accommodations, but sorry no RVs allowed.  There are some other restrictions that make this one very unlikely to work out for us...

The location is spectacular however, so I'm trying to dig out more places like this up there.  Klavdy (and others) can attest to the splendor of the riding up there and the bountiful roads are all about 2 years old right now.  The best part is...  ZERO traffic.  I ride up there with Diane during the summer and "heavy" traffic is a car every couple of miles.

Look at Two Rivers here (http://www.tworiverssoccer.com), but 99% probability this won't work for us.  Please do look for other kids camps kind of this like BAR717 and 2 rivers...  that's pretty much the perfect setup for a rally.

I am in Randy.  Chandra's pick looks nice.  Weather shouldn't be too bad, either.
