I have 18 hard boat permits for Sat and Sunday. More are available. Not to stress. Glad to see we have such a good crowd coming! Hope more will follow!

Hey Tommy, why don't you ride up with me and Grommit. We'll be rolling through Richmond early Saturday morning. I doubt we can make the 9:00 am meeting, but should make the 10:00am put on. We'll camp Saturday night. I can bring my turkey fryer, oil, and a large butterball. do we need anything else?

I got released from prison for a weekend.

Joanne,

I’m looking to join in the fun. I will handle my own reservations as to not trouble you with trying to accommodate my numerous requests. Unless it's NBD to reserve me a electric Pop-up site for Friday and Saturday.

One Hard boat permit for Sat & Sunday if you can handle it.

Call or shoot me an e-mail if you need anything.

After talking with Benners and Tall Oaks I have booked a block at Tall Oaks Campground because they have a Pavilion we can use for Saturday evening socializing and cooking in case of rain. Tall Oaks phone umber is 724-329-4097. I’ll post camp site numbers later this week. Cost is $10 per person per night for camping. They do have showers and full potty facilities. Please let me know via post to thread if you are camping with the group and what nites you are staying. Payment is to the campground.

Directions:
68 West to RT 40 West (Uniontown Exit). Continue on Rt40 to Rt 381 and turn left. There is a Pizza Hut on the corner. Continue one mile and look for Tall Oaks signs (blue) and turn left. Proceed one mile to entrance of campground.




Tall Oaks is placing us near the upper pavillion for the weekend. If arriving on Friday evening check in and they will direct you toward our area. If you are checking in quite late there will be maps on the door directing you toward the upper pavillion. I have reserved the pavillion for sat eveing incase of rain. I posted the incorrect number for Tall Oaks earlier it is 724-329-4777. Looking forard to seeing everyone on the river. So far we are cool on permits for everyone between Julie and I we have everyone covered. PHEW!

No need to call unless you have special requirements like camper access etc. You are covered dude! Just remember to check in on arrival or the morning after.

You all will need to pack your winter clothing for this trip. Highs for the weekend are projected to be in the lower 50s and lows in the 30s

Who is bringing wood, firewood that is?
