Perhaps an excessive light curfew to go with the noise curfew?

Breandan are you refering to the Quiet Family area?  I'm asking because I'd hate to see a bunch of curfews and restrictions in the general area.  If rules start getting added in the general camp area we may very well start lamenting our loss of liberties, so to speak.  :)

they're adding in an excessive noise curfew of 2300 for general camping from what I gathered, but "excessive noise" is probably going to be up to the discretion of the officers

So the camp orgies have to tone down the screaming after 23:00?  That sucks...

I just hope the rumor about making rows 1-20 participant only is just that....a rumor.  I cannot imagine having so many of us loyal campers moved off our beloved spots!

Lady Laura,

Just a rumor.

Terre, it is always good to hear from you.  But be careful with how much you post on here, as you might get addicted like the rest of us.   ;D ;D ;D

So glad that rumor got squashed.  We are quite cozy in our area and would hate to be moved so far away.  Although, I guess I can put that Carriage Taxi service back on the back burner (o:

We will take into consideration the fact that some like it rough. 

86% of people surveyed said they wanted Bathrooms, Electricity and Running Water

Most people are in tents and we will keep almost ever thing they way it was last year for those people.

Knowing we have a couple different types of patrons in the campground we will make sure to keep your experience they way you want it for your style.

While I know it's impossible to make everyone happy.  We did our research to try and add the things people kept asking for.

Hope you give it chance.   

I appreciate hearing this.  Thank you.

Question???

Will the new camping plan force the RVs & tents to separate? Many of the clans/groups area mixed bag. Many of them use their group RVs as kitchens, babysitting areas, wall themselves off so as to reduce unwanted foot traffic, & a variety of other reasons. Breaking up the groups would probably cost you customers.

I believe this was addressed somewhere already - The answer as I recall is that the map is like the Pirate Code - Merely guidelines (o:

Okay, the plan and map being circulated are subject to change. Everything shown will not be available in 2012 <year 1 of the plan>.

As any long term project, the costs will determine priorities.

First is the infra-structure, such as the new access road, store, flush toilets, showers, and access booth.

Next comes some of the conveniences, such as water spigots and further road construction.

Overall goal is to control vehicle traffic into the Patrons campgrounds.

I will be hired as the clan/patron camping coordinator at about the year 3 point in the plan, where we should have some very desirable offerings for the clans.

I suggest that as few folks as possible ask to come onsite to see what has been completed, as you may not see the full story.

Once the clan reserved areas become a reality, I will contact all the clan leaders I have from my Sherwood Yahoo list, plus any others who contact me.

Remember, my involvement is still a couple of years into the future.

Reserved clan camping at TRF?  This will bring a lot of questions, but as it is something toward the end of the 3 year plan I will wait and see how the grounds are when looking at Planned vs. Implemented. 

Thanks for the info Mike.

Although not a member of any groups other than my own, I am excited and welcome any and all improvements. Anything that makes our stay more fun :)
