We have nice campsites available in Campground 4. Reminder the reservation procedure is different for the September meet than for the April meet. Contact KOA directly via the number in the original post.

We anticipate a first time event at the 2014 Fall Camp Delta. John Sorensen has just restored a Patrol Boat, River (PBR) and will be cruising it four hours to the meet from Napa on Thursday! Just like the old days when PBRs were stationed at Mare Island and trained in the Delta. John will be arriving in the 210 boat around mid-day and plans to depart Friday noon. In the morning he will call me with an ETA and I will post this on a sign at my Fall camp #297. Join us at the Rosa’s Restaurant deck to greet this welcome addition to our show!
