Topic: Wisconsin Pod Gathering? Posted: 09 Jun 2013 at 7:15pm |
We just returned from a week on Washington Island with our Pod, and had a great week. Dar had a class at a fiber arts school on the Island, and I hung out and relaxed. I didn't hang out like another member here does, fyi. That is frowned upon on the Island. While my mind was idle, I thought that maybe we could have a gathering of the pods on Washington Island. Positives: - A good, well maintained campground.
- Friendly welcoming locals.
- Historic sightseeing
- Great birdwatching
- Nature trails
- Several good restaurants
Negatives: - It is at the end of a 90 mile peninsula.
- No water parks, kids rides, or rock concerts.
- Requires a round trip ferry ride (Round trip, two adults, tow vehicle, 20' camper cost $80.00)
If there is enough interest I will contact the campground and negotiate a price. We paid $35.00 per night with electric and water hookups. So let me know what you think. I was thinking about soon after Labor Day, but am open.

No date set, but soon after Labor day would work best for me. When would work for you?

We would be game, we had to cancel our plans to attend a mini rally over the Labor Day weekend on account of our son moving into his college dorm that weekend.

Lets see if we can get a few more. I plan on one more trip to the Island either way.
