John Baker's Bus's n Boats campout is in May. Just north east of Cincy. Probably the best location of any campout around. Right on the Little Miami River. This is a constant in the OVT. I'll try and find the dates and get back.

That's a pretty short campout. I guess we'll have to pack a lot of fun into one hour?thumper wrote:check in is 1:00 check out is 2:00
SERIOUSLY, thank you Gail for doing the legwork on this, and hooking up with Pam and the camp! I'm totally stoked and ready to start camping! I started getting all the junk out of my bus (Winter storage shed syndrome) and got the battery charged up.

If anyone is intrested I can lead a convoy out of elyria at noon to get everyone there. I can talk to chris andi am sure he woulndt mind us at basils. I can even use backroads for people who arnt highway fans let me know who's intrested.
the best ideas are often the worst choices.

Re: Month of May camp out?
Well, it's time to decide, so since Gail did all the legwork, and "Country Stage Campgrounds" seems to want us, can we give it a green light? Everyone ok with this?
It's Saturday May 22 starting at 1pm. Gail posted some of the details and amenities a little earlier in this thread.
We need a replacement for Ft. Firelands so people can have something to plan around. Gail did all the leg work and got the owners on board so I guess I'm suggesting we give it a shot. If anyone has concerns or questions, I guess you can "pm" Gail. She's (Thumper) on the site or just post them here. I took the liberty of adding this to the event board, but if you folks say otherwise, I can delete it.

Re: Month of May camp out?
Buses and Boats in Morrow OH will be that same weekend. According to John Baker, it's always the weekend before Memorial Day. If I make it out, I'll be going there. Keep me posted on any other campouts this summer!!

Re: Month of May camp out?
Buses N Boats is something I'm doing, so I'll miss this one, also, if it turns out to be the same weekend. Sounds like a great time and place though - hopefully they don't overlap. I haven't seen any definitive date on Baker's campout .

Many thanks to Gail aka Thumper for setting up the Country Stage for the campout. I never camped there but did visit the place once and it seemed really nice.
