Wikipedia says:
The fluid dram is defined as 1⁄8 of a fluid ounce. Dram is used informally to mean a small amount of spirituous liquor, especially Scotch whisky. The unit is referenced by the phrase dram shop, the U.S. legal term for an establishment that serves alcoholic beverages.

We are all registered both at the campground and with ETI,
Just sold our treasured 2003 Scamp 16 and bought CPAHarley's gently used 2014 21 footer Blackjack (now renamed The Mis-Adventure) and will be making our first long-haul Madventure in her to the Rally.
Looking forward to making new friends and seeing a couple of familiar faces.
Craig and Josie

Rally Attendees ...
We are changing our colours.....well ...really just the awning side panel colours .
Is there anyone attending the Osoyoos Rally that might be interested in our striped side panels .
They attach with snaps - easy on easy off , are completely intact and washed . Sunbrella type fabric double weight , so same colour both sides . Please pm if interested . Thanks

Awww Jim!
But, on the bright side, your former rig will be there to represent you!

Sorry Jim but at this point I am sworn to secrecy🤗. I'm sure that the Escape team will soon post more details as we get closer all I can say is that I wish I could get more time off from my real job to help prep for the rally.
Jim N. to bad that you can't make it. At least you will be there in spirit with your newly rehomed trailer

For those who are attending the rally and this campground for the first time, I highly recommend visiting the outdoor bar down by the beach area as well as the ice cream shop where fresh bread and pasties made locally are brought in daily. I believe the bakery is located in Kelowna and their items are delicious. In addition there is a nature center outside the gate that is also interesting. Another item to know is the gas station at the the cg entrance has some local flavor including poutine. The day cook there lives in the cg with her husband Daryl. We had the pleasure of having the campsite next to theirs on our first visit in 2014.

Thanks Jim. We are going this year for the first time. The nature center will be great for the kids. So what do one do about grocery? I figure there aren't much we can carry cross the border?

About one mile into town will be a food store on the right, everything you need. Also a liquor store next to it.

We live in North Vancouver and I still have to convince my wife that there are grocery stores outside of North Vancouver, that we don't have to bring everything with us.
