Is there a master list somewhere for both of the NOGs listing who all is where?

I noticed that you also live in Bremerton. We are also new to the Escape world as we bought a 2013 '19 in Oct. from another forum member. If you would like to connect, send me a PM with contact info.

Everything is stored at the CasitaForum. I think you can view the participants list, but I don't know if you can see the filled in site map image if you're not a member. The list was last updated 1/18/17. I'll update it again with the newest folks, sometime over the coming weekend.

I was able to see the list of folks coming and their campsite. Correct on not being able to see the map, but that's okay. I can go to their map and figure it out myself.

thanks for the link.

Why not just join the Casita Forum? Doesn't cost anything.
I joined years ago but quickly lost interest.

Well, gee, why didn't *I* think of that?!?!?

Yeah, I think I could have figured that out myself. I do have a few brain cells still working while I'm recovering from pneumonia.

If anyone changes their minds and is unable to attend, Please let me know, we are looking for a spot for the NOG. Thanks, Roberta and Craig

Can you dry camp? We have a number of people in tent sites. Check ReserveAmerica for driveway length, most of the tent sites are plenty long enough for tug and tow.

[Donna D.]

PLEASE READ.
We do not have a shelter reserved. Reservations for day use shelters ends on Sept. 30. The major issue is everyone would need to drive to the shelter(s) leaving the campground empty. You'd probably want to put "stuff" away. Ahhh no. So the Friday and Saturday food events are PLANNED to be held at my site B3. IF you have a folding table or EZ-up type shelter we can use, that would be greatly appreciated. IF THESE PLANS CHANGE DUE TO THE WEATHER, I'll post the information by NOON on Fri., Oct 6 at my site.

I will post the weather forecast for Oct. 4-8 before I leave Wed. (10/4) morning. Look at the BOTTOM of THIS POST. Plan for for any kind of weather. Over the years we've seen it all!

THE Schedule of Events such as it is...
Daytime hours are completely unscheduled. Feel free to do what you wish. Sleep in, hike the falls, go to town, play cards, sit-and-visit, etc., etc. As far as trailer tours, nothing scheduled for that either. If you see folks sitting outside, stop and chat and ask to see their trailer. I've found most folks have an informal open house.

DON'T FORGET TO BRING/WEAR A NAME TAG. I have a few items for the give away. If you have something you'd like to bring to give away Saturday night, that would be great. Anything trailer and/or camping is encouraged. You must be wearing a name tag to win! I'd really like to see everyone wear a name tag all weekend. I'm meeting some of you for the first time. Help me to remember your name, please.

FRIDAY NIGHT NO-HOST DINNER-ON-A-STICK: You will want to bring a chair. This is not a potluck, bring everything you need, including your roasting stick. Fire will be roaring, come by anytime after 5PM.

The fun/funny stuff:
CRAFT BEER EXCHANGE
6PM SHARP
FRIDAY NIGHT
This is an "opener" event.
Bring a six pack of craft beer, trade one bottle or can for a different kind.

Everyone is welcome at anytime to anything. If you're not a beer drinker that's perfectly okay. Please join us. Beer/food is secondary to the good times we'll have around the fire.

SATURDAY NIGHT POTLUCK: Serving of food will start SHARPLY at 5pm. Come a few minutes early to get your food on the table before serving starts. Bring an appetizer, entrée, salad or dessert to share that feeds 6-10 people and your table service.

Always plan to bring a chair.

Please, no pets at any of the food events.

Hope this helps with some questions. Post if not, we'll get the question answered.

I just now cancelled my reservation for spot B7, arriving 10/5 and leaving 10/9.

Have fun everyone!

[gmchamplin]

Laura, I'm sorry you won't be able to be there, but thanks for posting your cancellation. We pick up our new trailer on the 5th, and were hoping to come to the NOG but couldn't find a space. We now have B7 for the 6th to the 8th.

[NW Cat Owner]

Yeah, glad someone was able to pick it up. Figured someone would see my post.

After my recent 2000+ trip in the trailer in 12 days, I just didn't feel like going anywhere in it. So, instead I'm heading to Spokane, sans trailer, to visit a good friend.

PS, I also cancelled my spot for the 2018 Spring NOG due to a conflict with another event I'm not missing, but I couldn't find the thread for that event. I don't know if the campground is full. As of last night, spot #50 in Dairy Creek West was cancelled. Just in case anyone reading this thread is looking for a site for the Spring NOG.

Wooohooo, new people! Gary, what's your wife's name. I'd like to get you both on the Participants List.

[gmchamplin]

My wife's name I Peggy. We are both looking forward to meeting some of the people we've been learning from on this forum for the past year.

As soon as we get some build pictures, we'll post those too.

[Donna D.]

Thanks Gary! And, we ALL look forward to posted pics too

Welcome to the fiberglass gang, neighbor (literally, we're in B6.)

Looks like someone has already snatched it up. I was hoping to change to a site in the B loop with hookups.

[Donna D.]

Well, I didn't hear about it. So must have been a non-molded owner. Sigh. Guess someone who put an alert on ReserveAmerica if a site became available.

This is like herding cats....
