Welcome Charles. We all look forward to meeting you. Safe travels.
Some have suggested dinner out Saturday evning. We plan on going toThe Icehouse on the waterfront in Swansboro. One Scamp is arriving on Thursday and the rest of us are arriving Friday. Ken C said that if anyone wants to go kayaking he can bring his second kayak for a trip down the river. Just let me know if you or anyone else is interested.

Great news: Just received a message from a couple that lives in Alaska that just picked up a new FD Casita and are heading east. They will be relocation to North Carolina next year. They plan on attending our gathering so we will all have the special opportunity to view one of the latest Casita's out the factory door. Our numbers are growing an open sites vanishing in our section.

Trailer has been washed, de-winterized, tires checked, Tundra serviced and packed. Now we are just counting the days till we head out for the beach gathering.
Friday evening we are having a group social so bring your own beverage (wine, beer, soda) and a snack to share. Ken and Colin have offered to bring wood for a camp fire Friday evening. Saturday evening we all are heading to The Icehouse for dinner. Laurie has already made reservations for our group on Saturday at 5:30.
Safe travels to everyone.
* Don’t forget before you park your trailer to stop at the water pump to fill your fresh water tank if you travel with it empty.

Stephen, this gathering was in March 2012 ?
March 23-23 Gathering at Cedar Point NF near the beach ... at least that's what's I'm thinking since the OP posted in February 2012. Maybe you'd like to consider it for 2013?
Looks like the moderators are a little behind in moving stuff to the archives....
