The 2020 LEAKOIL PIB (Put-In-Bay) Campout happens the first weekend of November at the South Bass Island State Park Campground - located on the west shore of the island. Arrive Fri or Sat, Nov 6 or 7.
As usual, there will be no running water or flush toilets as they have turned off the water to the restrooms for the season. There is, however, a decent outhouse in the maintenance area for our use.
Please stop at the park office and pick up a campsite registration form, fill it out and deposit your form with payment so that all our sites are paid for. Please put in at least $10 per vehicle per night. (normal is $27 for electric sites, but because of no restrooms they will accept a lesser amount.)
Be sure you put the 'reserved' card on the pole at your campsite proving that you registered and avoid any hassle from park manager.
Two vehicles allowed per site.
Also, check with the Miller Ferry as there may be high winds that might cause delays in the ferry schedule. =https://www.millerferry.com/
We will again have large tarps mounted between trees to make a wind break if needed.
Lots of firewood is appreciated.
If ferries are not running we will camp, as some did last year, at East Harbor State Park.
And Craig says...well I can't say what Craig says. He'll tell you on the island.

I'll be there weather permitting
Re: PIB Campout 2020
As they say, "there's no bad weather, just inappropriate clothing."
Plus, we've often had nice weather, and with the tarps we have a good wind break so that the huge campfire works to supply heat and joy;)
Come and enjoy the peace and beauty of the PIB campground; we usually have the place to ourselves.

Re: PIB Campout 2020
Wish I could go this year. Won't need a diesel heater in with the kind of weather they are showing.
