Camping Trip

[stormyva]

I am trying to put together a camping trip for sometime in July for all of us to get together and put some faces to the names and just have a good time.

Here is where I was thinking about doing the whole thing......
Harpers Ferry, WV KOA Campgrounds:

Tubing can be arranged, Historic Harpers Ferry, WV (close for the civil war buffs), lots of river bank and forest to hike and herp on/in

Ideas for alternate dates and/or locations are welcome. ( I was thinking of a location in a three or four hour radius of Richmond, VA that would offer an opportunity to get out in the woods and do a little herping as well as have fun doing other stuff.)

Re: Camping Trip

I think that would be great. I'm only going to be there if we can get like 20 or more people for it. It's not too long of a drive from here in Pa.

Re: Camping Trip

So far I have at least 6 from "another site" and 6 including me, my wife, and a few friends.
That makes 12 total so we are close to your 20

Now the trick is nailing down a date and making the camping reservations.
