Oh Merlin, please don't mistake. I've never needed or sought electricity when camping. I like to rough it with the best of them. I mostly just asked, because one of the girls coming with us tends to always blow her hair dry when she washes it. figured I'd ask preemptively, so she didn't waste the space in the bags. I, myself, Like to get away from it all when at faire.  Give me a fire and a couple of bottles of water and I'm a happy camper (pun intended).

Several people have generators in the camping areas but I don't think anyone brought any in the PR clan area last year. We bring one of the jumpstart/charger power pack things to do stuff like charge phones etc but I couldnt find one with enough wattage to run a regular hair dryer. There is a camping hair dryer that they could buy from academy that runs off of the cigarette lighter in the car. (My Love brings one is how I know)

*I am happy with a spot of ground and a bottle of rum. My Lovely Lady requests... a bit more comfort*

We might just have to try camping next year.  We're carrying passengers this year, so it's not an option. It's been 20 years since we last camped, I think.  They actually make a tent that connects to Homer, the Odyssey.  It would be fun to rough it again!

That's another great thing about camping at Sherwood with the Clans - just wait long enough at your campfire and a visitor will come along with something most drinkable.  Or, alternately, do a walk-about with something to share and no telling what you'll run across in your travels.

The campgrounds are smaller than TRF but are more controlled (as in there is better security).
If you like roughing it like at TRF then you will like it here too.

*Bring rum and camp, thats the basic plan I go with*

When you see a silver-gray pickup with the lightbar on top drive by, that will be me making a security round through the campground to make sure everyone is ok. Sometimes it takes half an hour to make the circle after stopping many times to chat with folks. :)

  By the way, remember that campfires must be in a covered fire pit. No open fires on the ground!
