Sadly, family health issues have forced me to cancel.

Site A07 should be available.

I hope to see all of you next year.

Shucks, I was looking forward to seeing your front bed/rear dinette set up in person. Maybe later, hope all is well.

I called the cg and asked for a total and was told they only keep the reservation under the individual and could not tell me, so your guess is as good as mine. Two more weeks to go, I washed and waxed BlackJack this week and starting to prepare my list. Got most of my mods completed so it should be fun. I plan on arriving around lunch on Friday. I also just got a new outdoor stove and griddle I want to try out.

According to the email I received from them " Hello Twin Grove campers - You are receiving this e-mail because you have a reservation at Twin Grove. We are excited that you will be joining us as our guest on September 26th weekend. We will be using an expedited check-in process on Friday. You will be met at the entrance gate and directed to your site between the hours of 2:00 - 7:00. We will do our best to get you to your site quickly, however, we have approximately 100+ arrivals that day and you may experience some check-in delays"

So noon check it ?

That is when I'm planning to arrive, we will see if they let me in, normally if no one is at the site you can go. Not sure what the expedited check in involves but since they already have my money I see no issues.

Update on food:
I'll also be bringing 3 dozen pastries from a local shop for dessert for the rally.

Just checked with Twingrove, sites A1-A12 plus A20 have been filled, not sure about A7's cancellation. Check in @ 2 pm on the 26th, but if the site is empty you may squeak in a little earlier. It is easier and more direct to take exit #100 off I81 and head south vs exit #90 and go north. Have safe travels everyone and see you next Friday at the campground, hope for good fall weather. Other than our Saturday's potluck meal, the restaurant on site is really nice and full service for those interested. I'll be in site A9- stop in Friday for some pastry & coffee. Alf, I'll have a cold Yuengling for you....

Any problem with someone stopping in for the day on Saturday to take a look ? I have ordered a 21, but have not seen one yet.

Hey All! I've been out of the loop for a bit, but we plan to arrive Friday afternoon! Looking forward to seeing everyone's trailers and meeting folks in person! Not sure what we will bring for potluck, but I'll come up with something!

Long range forecast for next weekend is sunny, highs in mid 70's and lows in low 50's or high 40's. Sounds like campfire weather......

According to the Twin Groves website, there's a craft show and tag sale on site on Saturday. Hopefully it more craft and less tag.

They have a 3500 sf recreation center there as well as ice cream parlor, arcade, movie theatre. It is a very large place with lots of things to do and see. Bring your bikes to get around.

Come on Gabi, you and Wolf can certainly make it, it is only about 2800 miles......you'll get a prize for the farthest driven. If not, hope to see you next year, ....!!

We will not be bringing our TrailManor trailer (aka "Sore Thumb" above) to the rally. We will be there Friday night in one of Twin Grove's cabins instead. We look forward to seeing the Escape trailers and some of you that we have corresponded with on this site. I don't remember our site number but it is now available by calling Twin Grove. We will see you there.
