|
While we've been around since the early 90s and do have what I call our own "deadsite", apparently we never had a club thread going here. As of late our "deadsite" has been having issues, so I am trying to at least get some communications going here. Hope I'm not stepping on any toes! 
First post includes pix of our campout this past weekend.

Excellent idea Ivan. Considering the overall level of (in)activity on sv2s.com it seems to me that a perpetual thread here in addition to the FB page really covers things pretty well.
Just My Opinion.

And those pictures of the group parked on the grass! Wow! Incredible turnout.
So sorry I could not make it yet again. Then again we had all the "kids" in town with their boyfriend/girlfriends for a very important family birthday and had a great time.
Next time. (Dan, I really will try......)

Ivan, thanks for posting this picture, since I took none, it's nice to see my bus (TheHatch) prominently on display.
It was a great weekend, even though I arrived at about midnight on Friday. Weather was perfect and the company was awesome. So chill, so relaxing, really wonderful location. Thanks to Sergio for making it available and Dan for making it happen...
And, we should get someone to fix the SV2s website (dead site).
Cheers,
Turbo_g

It was a great turnout, maybe too great? I think the count was 37 with not everyone actually camping. I know people kept saying we can fit more but we never wanted it to be like BBB where people are camped on top of each other, so Serg and I talked about keeping it on the semi down low for April. Problem is that people tend to talk it up and invite along others and when there was 15 of us that was fine, but if every other person there were to bring along another bus in April, well, you get the point.
I will talk with Serg and we will figure out an absolute cap, likely most of those there will get first dibs and if there is more room, well, then we can add some new faces which is nice.
Every event has a propensity to get bigger but bigger ain't always better.
Above all I'm glad everyone enjoyed it, the Campout went smooth, everyone was chill for the most part, the cruise was good and the weather like Greg said off the charts nice. I can't wait for April!

It is a private time share type campground. As I remember over the years it has had a number of different names. About 5 miles (or so) south of Julian on 79.

Gotcha. Makes sense. I've been to an exclusive camp out that way too when I was in 6th grade 
Seriously, looked like fun. Love that part of the county.

Yes I went to Camp Cuyamaca also, around 1963 (?). At that point the camp was still the left over CCC buildings. They rebuilt it in the late 60s with all modern facilities. Then everything was destroyed in the fires of 2004/2006.
