OR | 2014, April 24-27: Spring NOG 2014 – Northern Oregon Gathering

[Donna D.]

Hi Barb, yes we do book ahead... usually nine months to the day we're coming into the site.

See you there!

[felix2]

So does one need to sign up for the Casita forum to be able to sign up?

[paulw]

Hi Felix,
Nope, just sign up with the park and let Donna know you're coming!
(Welcome to Maryhill btw).

[Dave Harris]

We have just reserved site A13 for the Spring NOG. We will arrive on Thursday 4/24 for 3 nights, leaving on Sunday 4/27. I saw in an earlier post that someone was going to be in A13 on Saturday, but must have changed their plans as it was available. Donna, can you get us on the list. We are back from Backus with our 13' Scamp. Thank you, Dave & Connie, Yelm, WA

[Donna D.]

Yep, got you on the list Dave & Connie!

[SpokanEscape]

Will everyone be in the A loop? There are just a few sites left and I am confused as the site restrictions say "truck campers only". This will be our first trip out as we will pick up our Escape earlier that week so I am about leery of fitting our 21 into a too small hard to maneuver spot. Of course we could provide comic relief to our neighbors

[Donna D.]

Hi Jan and Paul. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the site length. Some of the sites have a tree right at the back end (site A45) and some do not, which would allow you to push all the way to the back and bump the trailer tires. We're in A loop because B loop (during these dates) don't have reservations, they're first come, first serve. However ALL the sites in B loop would accommodate your 21' trailer.

If you're willing to make a phone call, the park rangers at the park are very helpful. Pick out the site numbers from what's left and give them a call... they'll tell you if you'd fit.

I hope this info helps and hope to see you at Champoeg!

Hi Jan & Paul,

Donna gives good advice (as always). I think there are some sites left on the front end of A loop. If your TV doesn't fit - that end is close to the extra parking area. (we are picking up our 21 in November) looking forward to meeting you.

Kathie

PS - We have had folks stay in the B loop before but it's more fun to be with the gang in A loop.

[SpokanEscape]

Well we just reserved A-03 - from Thursday the 24th to the 27th. Looking forward to meeting everyone!

[tafraser]

I just saw the posts related to this gathering and was able to reserve one of the last 3 sites in A loop. We pick up our Escape 21 in a couple of weeks and will be in A01, right next to SpokanEscape and their 21. Can't wait to see you all.

HAPPY

This is going to be fun, just like all NOGs.

My Brother and his Wife will be in A 13, with their A-Liner, arriving on Sat. and leaving Monday morning. They will probably not attend most of the festivities, but it gives us an opportunity to get to together for the weekend.

Just talked to my brother's wife, and things have changed a little bit...... ...They sold their A-liner, sold their house, bought another house, and they cancelled their site (13)!!!!!! They are moving into Salem over the next few weeks, from their house out south of Salem on the Silver Falls hiway. We will probably visit with them while we are down for the 2014 NOG.

Mike

[Donna D.]

Thanks for letting me know Mike. I'll remove them from the participants list and map.

BTW Dave & Connie are in site A13.

[Receo]

We're in. Looks like our first gathering will be in Champoeg April 25-27. Spot A-05 Burro 13'
I'll be the exhausted looking guy chasing two toddlers around. Can't wait to meet y'all.

[Captainalice]

Hi to Dave and Connie. I'm Denise and I stopped by this weekend on my way to Astoria. I have a 13 ft Scamp and I'm in B12 sat & sun. I'm new to the group and have had my Scamp for 3 years. I'm excited to meet everyone!

[Marinab]

Hi Donna, Mr T and I will be in site B15 from the 23 to the 28th.
The site map says A loop is full but I noticed that someone said B loop was
first come. Does this mean that I don't have my site reserved? They
took my money.

[Donna D.]

Sorry Marina, I don't know. If you give me a few days I'll call ReserveAmerica and find out. Maybe they changed to the entire park being reservable? I'll let you know when I find out more.

[Carol H]

Donna, I am down with Marina in B17 - along with a few other eggs I know of .... in fact I think one of them scooped the last available site showing on the reservation system down there last night....

Yup they took my money as well ;-)

[JWoerndle]

Kathy and I will be joining the event, in site B12. This is our first time.
