I'm easy...I can do it any weekend. Maybe we can get Ron at The Bus Depot to drop by?
I live with my Westy at another RV park nearby, but would not recommend it for this communal experience.

And I'd put in a vote for not the weekend of the 21st, please! If I'm in
the country, I have to go to an event in NY that weekend. How about the
weekend of the 14th?
I'll second (or third, or fourth) all the suggestions that it be a campout,
not a day event. Too far to drive for a day event!
