I will be setting up between 9:00am and 10:00am. Look for the picnic area that has the Green and Blue Balloons. Cost of entering the park is $8.00 dollars per car. Limited street parking is available if you wish to walk into the park. This is a day park only no over- night parking. I will provide a picnic lunch for everyone. Please bring your own snacks and refreshments. Lunch will be served around 1:00pm. Vegetarian selections will be available. This park is located next to the beach so bring your bathing suits and towels to swim or just juggle with me in the park. I will probably pack up around 5:00 pm. Park closes at dusk. If you have any extra seating like lawn chairs or fold out chairs please bring them. Also if anyone has a fold out card table I would so appreciate it if I could barrow it for the day.

Accommodations:

Over Night Camping is available at a Group Camp site at Emmy Woods State Beach that I have reserved. I have only 5 vehicle spaces to park for the night but lots of space for tents. If you wish to camp send me an email and I will send directions. The cost will be per vehicle $20.00 per night. You will need to pay me not the camping grounds. I will have further instructions in the email. I have 2 spots for vehicles left so if you want to park there for the night let me know soon. First come gets the spots.
