I have to coordinate my PA trip with my WI trip in September... just a few weeks too late - doh!

I'm currently in the process of convincing my wife that this is a good family decision:

I'm at about 72% convincimentification.

D is closed that week.

Hmm, it is only seven hours to drive there ...

ETA: According to the website (and the sign at the gatepost), the facility is a restricted area: "Active duty and retired military personnel, Air National Guard and Reserve personnel, family members of the above, DOD and retired civilian employees, and cadets are eligible to use MWR facilities. Proper identification may be requested by staff."

Now, I understand that the event itself can be made public (although it isn't on the list of events quite yet), but can herfers use the rest of the facilities there? Can we make camping reservations?

And, finally ... admittance may be restricted to US citizens only (unless the foreigner(me) is on official business and is escorted). I have learned the hard way that most DOD locations are restricted in this manner, even recreational ones. I have no issue with that; I just need to know before I start planning! Thanks.

Funny stuff Buzz.

I'll be attending this year. I think that I will drive myself though. It will be a cold day in Hell before I show up in a mini van!

If that mini-van actually exists and shows up at the event, I think I'll piss my pants from laughing......

The sign is to keep the riff-raff out, LOL. If you want to reserve a tent site, let me know and I'll do it for you. Also, there is a number of hotels in the immediate area as well.

There is no problem with your admittance to the event as the recreation area is actually of the the main post of West Point.

Lastly to everyone, I have updated the initial post and I'll start the guest soon as well.......

Thanks! Sounds great! The gf is busy that weekend, so I'm in. I'll PM you about camping. I can't drink and drive, and well, I want to drink! :-)

Anyone else thinking of camping? Or a motel/hotel? I just automatically thought of camping as the only place that I can smoke outside of the house is ... outdoors.
