Thanksgiving Camping
As in years past, Corinne and I are once again leading a Dolphin Divers camping trip to Albion River Campground over the long Thanksgiving weekend from Wednesday, November 21 through Sunday, November 25.. As before, we were able to secure a block of 10 sites in the “C” row for our club.
The attached map of the campground shows the block of sites they are holding for us. The sites are C6, C7, C8, C9, & C10, as well as sites C25, C36, C37, C38, and C39 (yours truly will be staying in site C39). These sites are being held under the “Dolphin Divers” name. You’ll each have to make your own reservations as soon as possible (first-come, first-serve). Just like last year, we’ll have power and water at each site, so the cost will be $35/night with the first night deposit due with your reservation. Please note the cancellation policies at the bottom of this email. The campground is holding our block of sites through the end of October, after which they will open up any unclaimed sites back for general reservations by anyone. Again, for our block of sites, it’s “first-come-first serve” – you need to call the campground and make your own reservation. Their phone number is listed on the attached map. You can also make reservations on-line (www.albionrivercampground.com), though I don’t know if the on-line system will show our block of sites as already booked. Please let me know once you’ve made your reservation so that I can keep a list of everyone attending for coordination purposes.
As we get closer to the event, I’ll be coordinating some of the event details, including the Thanksgiving menu with everyone that’s indicated their plan to attend. In years past, we’ve had an incredible Thanksgiving feast, including deep-fried or bbq’d turkey, ham, incredible desserts, … you name it. Abalone season along the Mendocino coast will still be open, so weather permitting, this may be your last chance to bag a limit, including a shot at the “largest abalone” club award for the year. And then there’s the “big fish” trophy to gun for as well.
Anyway, there you have it…. another fun club outing in the works!
