Maybe Deer Isle is a good alternative, drive to the campground and kayak to the caches. I would not mind a commercial campground either.
July 23 - 24
August 20 - 21
Either date will work for me
Anytime just name the date
Don't have a kayak but would go if I could get ahold on one
Don't have a kayak
I am not interested

wbdent I really like the Deer Isle idea. You can drive right to Deer Isle, so those that do not wish to kayak but still want to spend attend the event or spend the night with us can. There are at present 10 caches right on the Island. It looks like 5 of them can be accesed by a kayak like Becket said.
wbdent This sounds like a good plan to me. What does everyone else think about this? Do we have any takers? I have included a list of campgrounds that I found on the internet. Does anyone have any experience with any of these campgrounds or have any other suggestions.

hmmmm
Deer Isle sounds awesome! I don't kayak, but would certainly enjoy gathering with others at the end of a day of caching in the area. Is the date planned August 20th? I was thinking about heading up that way for a day in the near future so this would work out well!

Why not live life like it is your last day....instead of pretending to be a member of the Peter Pan Club and believing you will be around forever.

No, hang on to him for someone more needy. We're experts at weaseling - it's just that you need to know when to weasel and when not to. LOL!Would you like to borrow my weasel.

I am in the process of trying to get ahold of Old Quarry Campground and Sunshine Campground on the phone right now to see if they have a place for a group site. I will let everyone know when I find something out.

wbdent I just got off the phone with Old Quarry Campground. I have site number #1 reserved for us for August 20th. We can fit 4 or five tents in this site and possibly more. I asked if we had more if there would be room and then said they have overflow sites that we could put more tents in if we had to. But the overflow is not at the same location. But this will give us a place to meet at and have a good time and socialize.
wbdent I am going to post the event later on tonight so that is will be posted on GC.
