6/8/08 - Campsite Details is here!
The long-awaited campsite details page is here. Now you can search for a campsite based on different criteria and see the details of the campsite. Many of the sites have a picture posted. Sorry, we just don't have current pictures of all of the sites, but there is still plenty to see. The details page lists many features of the campsite like length of the driveway, distance to a bathroom, how much shade is on the site and much more. Thanks to all who made this project happen!
Visit the Search for a Campsite page by clicking here.
Or you can access this page through the Camping page in the "About the Park" section.

5/15/08 - Summer Preparations
Memorial Day weekend is approaching fast. And we all know that is the big kick-off for summer. The park staff have been working relentlessly to prepare the park for the oncoming vacation season. Long-time park visitors will notice one traffic change near Cox Hollow Beach.  The intersection is now a three-way stop so please be sure to do just that, stop.

A new feature for the Friends is the introduction of a new Forum.  Go ahead and visit the forum and even post any questions, comments or concerns. We hope this will be a feature that many people will use as it is a great way to get the entire community involved.
