2019, Apr. 25-28: Spring NOG - Northern Oregon Gathering
Once again the NOG is returning to Fort Stevens on the Northern Oregon coast. But, this time without me! Dave&Kathie have graciously stepped up to host this Spring NOG. I'll be around doing the background work keeping up the participants list and campground map, but all questions regarding the NOG needed to be directed to them. They're not newbies to the NOGs (I think they've only missed two since the very beginning) and have helped tremendously in the past facilitating information and organization. And I thank them for that support!
Fort Stevens is a big, beautiful state park. Lots to do inside the park and around the area. For instance, during the Spring NOG, the Astoria Seafood and Wine Festival will be held. Because of that event, Fort Stevens will be fully booked. IF you wish to attend Spring NOG, you will need to get your reservation made quickly.
We'll start reserving in H, I and J loops. H & I have full-hookups, J has water and electric. If those are full the L loop is also open for reservations right now and has full hookups. Its farther away from the other loops so we may be spread out. Dave & Kathie have chosen site H16.
They are also going to reserve Shelter A for the Friday/Saturday night doin's. It costs $100 to reserve for the two nights, they will take donations at the potluck to cover the cost.
Be sure to checkout everything the Oregon State Park system has to say about the park. Find the information here including reservation information:
https://oregonstateparks.org/index.c...age&parkId=129
The brochure here will tell you site driveway length (Fort Stevens campground info and map 2018): https://oregonstateparks.org/index.c...ubs&parkId=129
AND, check out Campsite photos for a picture of the site you want: https://www.campsitephotos.com/campg...t-stevens-h001
As usual I'll keep a park map updated and a list of names going for those that have made reservations at the CasitaForum. Find the information here: https://www.casitaforum.com/invboard...19-spring-nog/
Be sure to let us know if you're newbies to egg gatherings and everyone start planning/making your name tags.
Start posting!

Just tried making reservations and the site told me there was "no availability"; however, it also mentioned "Arrival date may be beyond Reservation Window". I'm thinking it's too soon?

Jan, it's based on your arrival date. Today is 9 months to the day from April 23. You know some folks like to show up early, that's why I posted it a couple of days early.

Disabled Vets
Would love to attend some day! For those that may not be aware of it, US military Veterans with any level of documented service-connected disability have free access to Oregon State Parks:

I recently received my pass and am looking forward to using it!

Greetings all,
The whole park is now open for reservations. If you want to be close to the H and I loops ,which are now pretty full, the J loop has water and electric. The M and L loops are across the road and are the other full hookup loops. They will probably fill up soon.

Besides the Seafood and Wine Festival (which is at the fairgrounds), Astoria is a wonderful town to poke around in. Here are a few things to see and don't miss waterfront trolley. http://www.old300.org/ You can get on and off and go all the way out to Pier 39 where the old Bumblebee Cannery was. It now houses a Rogue Brewpub and our favorite coffee shop 'Coffee Girl' overlooking the Columbia.
