For those who want to Camp...(So. MD)

[Mace]

Here is where Sam and I will be staying...


The campground is Patuxent Camp Sites. The sites have water and electric,
and showers are not far. Each site is $26 for 2 people. An additional
person on the site is $8. The lady seemed very nice, her name is Claire.
The phone number is 410-586-9880

It's right on the Patuxet River. and it's beautiful.
can't wait for the games.

That sounds like a cool idea. I might just ask the wife if she is up for a throwing/camping trip

[hmckenzie]

Last year it was a lot of fun even though I didn't have a sleeping bag, a tent, a toothbrush, clean clothes, or a pillow. The area is really pretty and is only like 15 maybe 20 minutes from the field. I know I am in.....Kate who else is coming so far?

[Tim]

Roughing it with Kate and Sam- Now THAT sounds like a party!

[Clancelt]

We can stay up late, swapping manly stories, and in the morning, I'm making waffles!

[Gunny]

Then I'm coming early for waffles!

[Mace]

So far it's Sam, Kate, Heather, I would assume Lacy.
Maybe Sean and Caren and Taylor(McKay) - I would guess it depends on if Sean makes it off the Wait-list.
I know Will Tayge had toyed with the idea. But I don't think he had the information about the site yet.
I think we should all camp..
Let's take over the site..
It'll be fantastic!

I heard that campground is haunted.

[dWood]

camping is for you younguns...I'll be in aheated hotel complete with running hot water,and soft bed and a continental breakfast

[Sean McKay]

I won't be making it, but it's a great place. I would strongly suggest ear plugs for sleeping. They have these really loud birds that howl all night long!

[Gunny]

FYI, there's a new Hilton about 15 minutes down the road, just before Solomons Island. I'll try and find the number if anyone is interested.

[hmckenzie]

Sean,
Sorry to hear you won't be making it down this year! I was looking forward to seeing you guys!
Those were birds? I just thought it was Sam and Kate.........haha...........

[Gunny]

He might be refering to the the Jet's that love to do "touch and goes" late into the night on some weekends.
I've been around them so long, I've toned them out.

[DD17/20]

Gunny, any lodging info. would help. It's been several years since I've been in the area. I recall a Holiday Inn.

Thanks!

[dWood]

hey Don there is a Holiday Inn Express(you get real smart staying at these I heard)before the games(..St Leonard??) and then further south at Solomons(Island>??) there is a regular Holiday Inn

[Gunny]

Yes, there is a Holiday Inn about a 1/2 mile further down the road, past the new Hilton.
I'll dig up the numbers tomorrow and post them here.

By the way, did I mention that I heard the Patuxent campground is haunted??
