More information will be posted when and if that decision is made.
What will you be providing at the campgrounds?
There will be showers, bathrooms, hand wash stations, and potable water. A general store will be selling sundries (personal hygiene products, batteries, film, disposable cameras, ice, soda, etc.) Vendors will be selling a variety of reasonably priced foods, beverages and snacks. There will be ATM's, but we still recommend that you bring enough cash for your stay to avoid long lines or waiting for the machine to be serviced. Please bring enough money for any additional expenses you may have.
