Colleen C--delighted! You're most welcome! A Cavalier and a Trillium!
Your 4' folding table will be most helpful.

See you then!

Indeed she is a duck tolling retriever, and she can toll for ducks. And Hodie, he'll be sure to wear his cape and carry his lance. They both will happily work for those treats!

See you in September.

Marcia, Peter, and the pups.

We will be in Site 40 September 21 through 24th in a 16' SCAMP. We live in the Renton Highlands, also.

Oh, excellent, Eileen and Jay! Didn't know there were other eggs in the Highlands (but had hoped). See you there!

Since we have found getting to Dash Point a little tricky, here are some turn by turn directions as simply as we can make them. If you have GPS this is likely unnecessary. WE don't have it so we suppose not everyone else does, either.


FINDING DASH POINT STATE PARK 2017
1. Take I-5 south from Seattle


2. TAKE Exit 149 (Des Moines/Saltwater State Park/Sho Ware/Highline College/Kent-Des Moines/516 West)
OR take the 272nd Street Exit from I-5. (directions from here are the same for both exits.)


3. Take a RIGHT at the end/bottom of the exit.


4. Take a LEFT onto Highway 99


5. Go into the center or right (carpool) lane and stay in it. (The right turn arrows allow you to continue in the carpool lane)


6. At S. Dash Point Road, take a RIGHT. This is also 509.


7. STAY on Dash Point Road/509 all the way to the park.


8. About a “block” past 312th there will be a right-angle, RIGHT turn to stay on Dash Point Road/509. It is marked, but easy (for us) to miss. You’ll pass a shopping area around 312th and a park will be on the left afterwards. The RIGHT turn is after the park.


9. This becomes a curvy road that winds down toward sea level.


10. There will be a “Dumas Bay Sanctuary” on the right; past that the road takes a sharp LEFT turn to stay on Dash Point Road/509.


11. Watch for the Dash Point State Park sign. OUR campground is to the left.


12. The overflow parking is on the left once you're in the park.


13. Trailer camping is on the RIGHT.





Site 37 is the FGRV SAG Host site...Site 39 is the weenie roast site, Site 49 has a trail to the amphitheater. Restroom is near the center and the central field is where we plan to have the dog events and the potluck supper.

Shortened my reservation to Fri-Sat nights as I have to be at orchestra rehearsal Thursday night.

[Kai in Seattle]

Hi, Bobbie, thanks for the update. Wishing you a good orchestra rehearsal--do you play (if so, what?) or conduct, or ?


Friday and Saturday are the primo days anyway, glad you'll be with us then.

I play cello in a community orchestra.

I'll be there as early as allowed- have to get through Seattle before traffic!

I just counted up and I have 23 days booked for camping already this spring-fall. Adding a few more in May (between two existing sets). More is better!
