Mike and I have signed up. Also, my Dad is signed up, as is Jack and Pam Erikson. We attended Pineknot 07 but was unable to make Pineknot 08 so we are really looking forward to this year. Had a great time at Bluebonnet. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.---Lisa

<> <> <> TWO IMPORTANT MESSAGES<> <> <> <>[/font]
#1. FIFTY-FIVE (55) units have registered so far. Whispering Pines is limiting us to FIFTY-NINE (59). Last year, they "found" some more sites. There is NO guarantee that will happen this year. If you have not registered, please do so ASAP. Only the first 59 will be assured a spot. If you are number sixty (60) or above to register, we will add you to the list and you will be moved up in the order of your registration should there be cancellations. Otherwise, you can make arrangements to stay at Tyler State Park or another private campground which is nearby. If you stay at another facility, you will still be able to participate in all the activities at Whispering Pines).
#2. Spaces are limited at Whispering Pines for those who want to arrive early. If you are one of these, you MUST make reservations for those EXTRA days directly with the resort. (If you will be arriving Thursday, Friday, or Saturday, you do not need to contact them).
: We are not happy about these developments!!!! <_< We reserved these dates with Whispering Pines last year before PineKnot-IV was over. Apparently this is a very popular resort with other groups besides ours. However, theirs is a private enterprise and they can make the rules.

OK Folks--- I will be the first to admit I am not pleased with Whispering Pines, and how they decided to limit us to only 59 sites. It seems they have booked other rallys at the same time ours will be going on. As you can see, considering the one cancellation we have already received, there are 73 of you who have registered. I plan to call Whispering Pines tomorrow--6/15/09--and see if there is any possibility of their finding more spots for us. Meanwhile, if you are registered and find out you have to cancel, please do so ASAP so we can move folks up on the list.
Also, may I add on a personal note that I do live alone and have had many things to accomplish around my new home place--plus I still work two or three days a week. SO... If I do not post things as rapidly as you think I should, I humbly ask for your understanding.
Paul S.

I contacted Whispering Pines about obtaining more sites. The young man there told me he would contact the other rallies that will be there when we are scheduled. He said he would try to get an exact count from each of them and perhaps they could free up some additional spaces that we can have. He said it will be a few weeks before he gets back to me. Meanwhile, if your number on the above list is above 60, you may be out-of-luck. Sorry to be so blunt.. I don't like the situation any better than you do. : Again, if you find you cannot attend, please cancel with us at pineknotfest[at]yahoo.com so others can move up the list.

Does you message mean that only those who have not registered prior to your announcement need to register or do we all need to register?

One of the first things you will see upon entering Salmon Lake Park is a sign forbidding alcoholic beverages. I asked the folks about this and was assured that this "ban" would not apply to campers in and around their trailers or among their group in their own area, in their assigned rec house, etc.
Salmon Lake, like Tonkawa Springs, offers day-use for swimming, picnicking, etc. The users of these facilities are the ones for whom the no-alcohol policy is meant.

Charlie....
Just because we changed campgrounds does not mean that all the registrations were somehow wiped away. I still have them. There is no need to re-register. I am presuming that those who do not like the change will cancel individually.

No one needs to re-register. If you have registered already, please, please do NOT register again. It just confuses me to have multiple registrations--and at my age, I do not need any more confusion :
