COPK "National" Jam

[matt marshall]

so i contacted my school it looks like i can get tents for basically five dollers a person for the entire weekend.  limit is at about 40 people.  they 2 and 4 person tents, if yer feeling really cozy maybe more.  and this doesnt count me, i got my own damn tent.  basically doesnt count a few people really.  so yeah 40 out of towners.  5 dollers a night.

Glad to hear you're on the mend Kannagisai! And don't worry about your voice..pirates are dead sexy!

I can't put anyone up that weekend as my parents are in town...but they are psyched to come to a jam and they are always up for a bee soda or two!!

I think the campground is a great idea anyway...all in one place..good community and no one has to drive once you get there!!

Also..just playing the old guy here..we should work on some refreshments of the non-alcoholic kind so some of our non drinking comrades don't think this is just some booze soaked weekend <grin>

I will leave the destinations up to the visiting traceurs...check out the hotspots on COPK. But I would imagine folks would get a kick out of cat fountain and red rocks.....

I love the idea of shirts...

Let me know how I can help!!

I'm in!

I'll rent a large enough SUV to cart some people around too.

What are the arrangements? Personally I'd love a camping trip (no, not THAT kind of camping trip, I swear) unless it's 90 degrees, then camping sucks and A/C is nice

Is there a camp area near a river we can play in and rinse off in?
