Title: Apologies for camper turned away this weekend
Post by: mpullen on March 17, 2013, 07:05:45 PM
We were overwhelmed with the influx of campers this Spring Break weekend. By Friday evening, we had to start turming away incoming campers.

Previous record was 800 campers. This weekend, we had over 1000 campers.

Please review my separate thread on "How to Setup Your Camp"

Just curious...  How does this affect clan members who aren't working the faire yet?

No idea what you mean.

Meaning, I'm not working the faire, but I'm also a member of the Sinking Ships clan.  Would I specify that I'm with the clan if there's no wrist bands to pick up?  I always get my camping ticket online.

You would trade your online camping printout for a wristband at the campgrounds security booth, just like downtown.

Next time, I'll just come a week early.  I'll just have to camp off 290, though.  Right by the entrance.   :P
