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.

is that wedding bells I hear?!

Da-Da-DaDaaaaaaa!!!! Ever wondered what it would be like to have a wedding at Hickory Acres Campground. Well, after Saturday, ask Shain & Kate! The ever anticipated wedding has finally arrived, and let me tell you, relief is on the way!!

If you'd like to celebrate with us, the reception is being held at 5:00 p.m. in the pavilion. (If it rains, we will be moving the ceremony in here as well!) During the ceremony, Lisa will be the lonely person in the office. She will have me on stand by, but I'm attending the wedding (Shain is my cousin). So PLEASE!!!!!!! Be respectful.  I hope that everyone has respect to honor Kate's special day. (If not, I'm going to sick Bridezilla on all of you!)

Now, I have come to realize that some of you are not sure who I am, or who Kate is. I am NOT Kate. And Dear Lord, I am NOT marrying my cousin. Kate is shorter, smaller, dark haired and glasses wearing. I am none of those. On top of that, I am very loud. Kate is very quiet. Do we have a clear distinction?! If not, stop in, and I'll clear it all up for you!

On a not so serious note, WEDDING!!!! Cherie will be in a dress. Chris will be in a tuxedo (<--- can't wait!). Shain will be in a tuxedo. Kate will be in a b-e-a-utiful gown!! And me, you ask?! I will be in a dress. For all of you, this will probably be the last time, in your lifetime, that you will be seeing any of us looking this darn sharp.

We are all very excited to be finally getting to this wedding! And we hope you are too!! Come enjoy Saturday, September 6 at 5:00 p.m. in the pavilion!!!

labor day is upon us!

Labor Day...  it's here. You heard me right. That last major summer holiday is about here, and soon, it will be over. Don't think to much on this. Thinking about summer almost being over may lead to severe depression!

Did you enjoy my little game last week? If so, get prepared to play again! But this next time, you won't get so many hints. You'll have to figure out how to get free stuff on your own! (I told you guys I'm not always the nice one :)!) And next time, who knows what I'll give away.

Friday: we kick-start the holiday weekend off with bingo!!! Then Saturday (ready for this?): Crafts, Carnival Games, Corn hole, Horseshoes and then some K-A-R-A-O-K-E!!! Sunday (this is just as fun!): Inflatable Bouncers, Poker Run, Euchre Tourney ($2 will draw for partners), and the ever anticipated Square Dancing (No partner required! Be there or be square!). <--- I'm so funny. You want times?! Such a bunch of needy people. Check out the link on the home page to our Facebook. Cherie has already posted the schedule for this weekend on there! You honestly think I'd do it again?! Nuts...

Last, but definitely not least, I have charged the 2015 Season Deposit that is now due September 15, 2014! It is still $275.00, with the remaining balance of $1,000.00 being due on or before April 15, 2015. Can you believe that we're already to this part?! This year has flown by! So if you stop in the office and get a receipt that says you own me $275.00, then you will completely understand!

Lastly, and most importantly, let's have a fantastically, fun and safe holiday weekend!!!

Who doesn't love a good Garage Sale?! (If you said that you didn't, then you're probably a man.) This Saturday at 9:00 A.M. kicks off our Annual Campground Wide Garage Sale!! Stop out to see each individual sale that the campers have going on, or just have your own sale at your site. Stop by the pavilion to see what's in there, but most importantly, do NOT forget to stop by the campground office (see me) for some delicious Schwan's Ice Cream (see me)!!!!

Friday night is Bingo at regular time. Saturday there is Cornhole & Horseshoes as normal. At 6, there is Kids' Karaoke, with Adult Karaoke starting at 8.

If you're concerned about how your Garage Sale is going to turn out, I have included a link to a good site that's going to help you out with everything!! The only thing you don't have to worry about is the advertising!!!

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!!!!!!

I TOLD YOU SO!!! I love getting to say that. I'm not normally right with anything, so when I do get to say that, I shout to the mountain tops!

This heat is awesome! Nothing is better than sitting outside, sweating your butt off and when you stand up, leaving a puddle behind. :) Puddle of ice cream, you weirdos!! If you come and see us in the office, you can get some ice cream and have it melt all over!!!!! That's just my opinion on how you can get some delicious ice cream from us!

Any how... can you believe that it's almost July. July 4 and the fun to come is just around the corner. It's literally only 4 days away! Who's ready for the festivities?! Come Friday night to listen to Sidewinder Band while watching our famous fireworks!!!!! But have the kids here early on Friday. From 1-4 we have inflatables here! Then Saturday we have a variety of things going on: crafts, parade, fire trucks spraying, cornhole, egg toss, hog roast potluck, Farmer Fire Dept. homemade ice cream, horseshoes and we finish the night with karaoke!!! If you come for a visit to Hickory Acres Campground this weekend, and you're bored, you have some serious issues!

Now, if we can all get past the scattered showers and storms that are "supposed" to happen this week, we will be on our way to the weekend. And we all know what the weekend means....

I have no idea where that's going, but I do know that we have our independence to celebrate this weekend! So come on out and help us, help you, have a grand time!!! :) Happy 4th!

memorial day weekend

It's nice when Mother Nature holds up to a bargain! Beautiful, sunny skies are ahead of us for this holiday weekend! Not only will there be beautiful weather, but there will be plenty of activities going on to keep everyone (especially the kids) busy for hours!! This is also the weekend to start crafts on Saturday mornings! So drop the kids off at the pavilion Saturday mornings @ 10:30 a.m. and see what craft Cherie has planned for all ages. There is also karaoke, inflatable bouncers, a poker run and a band throughout the weekend!

Stop in to see me (hint, hint, hint!) and grab an activity schedule AND an ice cream cone! This weekend is going to rock!

On a more serious note, this may be a great 3 day weekend, but it has a more serious meaning. Memorial Day is to remember all the men and women who have died serving our country. So to all those camping, have a blast but stay safe!!

And to all those who have served and to all those serving, we'd like to say Thank You!
