Dan, I should have confirmations out this weekend but no worries I do have you and Karen staying in Camper Heaven so no problem there Reserved Site 3 Level 2 .... lakeside view, natural sound system, leaf conditioned bedroll mattresses, directly adjacent to the Central Texas Comedy Club and Tru-Trak Barker Green Jug Hoot'en Nanny ..... you're gonna love it

I still have some folks confirmed at the RCC who have not registered in the OnLine Registration and I was waiting until most of them were in. Still looking full with an occasional room opening up but filling right back up.

We have some fun stuff planned if it all happens on schedule! The Air Base committed to C130 low level fly bys and we're pushing hard for touch and goes .... probably won't get them down that low

See you on the Mountain! Bill

PS....there is also a quite side of the campground but no one ever stays there .... go figure

Default First RV gathering!

Just registered and I'm looking forward to camping and meeting everyone. Does anyone have a set of tie downs that I could borrow if I can't get one of those special 20 spots? All the other posts paint a pretty good picture of what to bring and what to expect. Hope the weather cooperates and I look forward to meeting up with everyone!

Nick

Default Petit Jean Update 1 - 30 days out !

Last night we posted the first 30 day email Update to everyone that we have registered online as well as previous attendees. That's getting to be a big list and we hope you find the advance info and reminders helpful!

We have over 100+ registered RVs as of last night, 8 more this morning, and the rush is always in the last two weeks. The boys at Vans have committed to bring the RV14 and that completely fills out our dance card. One of everything RV should be on the Mountain! If you are not one of the 8 today and/or didn't get an email update last night, please drop me a PM. We either don't have a good email address or there was a problem with the online registration!

It's shaping up to be a really nice weekend. The trails are in great shape, lots of water on the falls, and easy transport to the trail of your choice. We are told that the Little Rock AFB will be dropping "through" a couple of times in their C130s since Petit Jean just happens to be on one of their "nap of the earth" routes .... and we have an inside guy

In the next update, we will be sending out Arrival info and in particular the Petit Jean Point Photo Arrival which will be active from 10:00AM Friday to late afternoon. If you want a great shot of your airplane from the point or anywhere else, this is the time to do it. Dan can photo shop it into some gorgeous backgrounds.

Get ready for a great weekend on the Mountain! The local EAA guys and gals and the MidSouthRVators are prepping the field, stacking firewood, and putting together another knock out PJ menu. The Rockefeller Center is primed and looking for you! All you need to bring is your your game face, your game skills, and your RV Grin! The rest is on us!

See'ya on the Mountian!

Bill

I thought I wouldl try and re-register, just in case, but the survey monkey won't let me do that. It says I have already completed it.

Just trying to help with some data here.

Has anyone who's registered but not yet received an email, heard anything from the organizers? I sent a PM to Bill yesterday, hoping he's got a moment to help us figure this out. Would be a shame to show up and have no record of registration.
