Reserving Stalls:

There are 46 stalls. All stalls are first come/first serve. (You can always have portables...as well.)  If you feel a need to 'Reserve' a stall with your name/dates on the stall, you will be charged an additional fee of $15 per stall/night reserved.  Call Patsy Johnston (831) 588-1357 to see if this option is available for you.  The camp host would pick the stalls based on availability.  There are no guarantees that a camp spot will be near where the stalls are reserved.

Volunteers Needed:  Please remember this is a club of volunteers.  The club needs it's volunteers to keep operational.  The very small membership fees are due to expectations that club members volunteer throughout the year to help improve the facilities for all the club members and their guests.
