Well... Hello there.

 The keeper of the site....is Cherie Kimpel.  If you really, really need something, you can probably ask me. If I don't know, I'll find out!  This blog is where I will do my best to keep everyone updated on what's going on, but sometimes, work gets in the way.

it's crunch time!!!

Kids are going to hate this statement, and parents are going to jump for joy: School is getting VERY close. This weekend starts off the month of August!! So to celebrate parents' freedom from their kids, we are having School Supply Bingo on Friday night followed by the Flashlight Lollipop Hunt! Saturday is crafts for both adults and children, corn hole, horseshoes and then Bingo at 7:30.

This week is supposed to be a bit chilly with some rain, but I know I don't need to tell everyone how much we need rain. The yard is dying!!! Let it rain all this week, while we are at work, and then this weekend, let the sunshine begin! Or, at least, that's what I'm hoping for!!

some important info about safety!!!!

I know that some of you have been watching the news and have heard about the tornado that ripped through a Virginia campground. It is a sad tragedy that left 2 young parents dead and a small child in critical condition.  With some upcoming threat of rain, and possible storms, I thought it would be a good idea to say a few things about the measures for safety that we have taken.

1.)   We have a tornado and severe weather siren. This is controlled by the Defiance Fire Department.

2.) The Farmer Fire Department Chief is a phone call away. He keeps up posted on severe weather that could possibly cause damage. We are well informed about when a storm could potentially cause damage.

3.) The bathrooms were built to withstand a hurricane. They may seem small, but those bathrooms are designed to contain all of the people in this campground. To add to it, they are equipped with hurricane latches to the roof. This is a requirement from the building contractor.

If you ever hear the siren going off (and trust me, you cannot miss the siren), you should  make your way calmly to the bathrooms. Chris, Cherie or myself will do a lap around the campground to let everyone know if it is a serious threat, and help those who need it. We want everyone to feel safe while here at the campground. Besides entertainment, our main priority is to make sure everyone feels protected.

I'm going to skip all the shenanigans today and get straight to the point: THE BULLDOGS will be here Saturday for a performance!! There is no charge for adults or children this year, so come on over and enjoy the show! Cherie and the gang will be selling hot sandwiches, chips and drinks, so bring your appetite!!!!! Food sales starts at 6:00 p.m., and the show will begin at 8:00 p.m. Bingo is  Friday night!

This weekend, it was a blast getting to see all of the campsites that decorated for Christmas in July! It's always fun to see what everyone is going to come up with. The only sad part about last weekend is that I didn't get any presents from Santa :(. Apparently, I must have been bad because I only got coal! Even though it was Christmas in July, we were boasting some seriously nice weather, and to make it better, it's supposed to last this week as well!!!!!!

Absolutely nothing is worse than a summer that moves just a bit too fast! It's the middle of July people!!! School is starting in less than a month. This week will have a high in the 70's <-- That's fall weather.

We have had a tremendously nice summer so far, and I'm only hoping that we can keep it up for a bit longer. But, regardless of all of that, I'm ready for some real camping weather!

This weekend is our Annual Christmas in July!! Bingo is Friday night. Saturday is all about Christmas fun with crafts (adult and children), cornhold, Candy Cane Hunt and Karaoke! Come on down to the pavilion and sing your favorite Christmas Carol for all to hear!! Even though there may not be snow on the ground, there's always going to be a bit of Christmas cheer in everyone's hearts!!!
