We are really looking forward to this one as it will be OUR final version!!
Here are some of the things we discussed and decided upon:
1. I am going to do T-shirts again this year for those who wish to purchase them
2. There WILL be a deep pit BBQ on Thursday
3. We are currently planning to open on a Wednesday and run the event through Monday morning
4. If the drought persists, we may have to limit the total amount of people to 200
5. The registration form will be on the Pamplin Grove website after the first business day of the New Year
6. On the form we'd like to have your contact phone number(s) as well as the Emergency Contact #/person
7. Enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelop with form aka (SASE)
8. We are holding the cost of the event the same: $50.00 per registration with one trailer/one vehicle
9. We are NOT going to do a Teardrop Derby this time
10. The raffle is on, and you may contribute items for it

It has been a while since Mo and I have been able to come up for the IRG and we are really hoping to make it this year. What a great bunch of people and a super campground.

I think it would be a great idea to limit the participants to 200 people whether or not the drought persists.

My family and I would love to make this trip, it would be our very first TD event. We would be coming up from Travis AFB, I was wondering if this is a kid freindly event as I have two little ones that would like other little ones to play with. But either way it looks like this will be fun! I cant wait to start meeting some other TD folks!

While I have not been to IRG. I can not imagine a Teardrop gathering that is not kid friendly. All the ones I have been to where. If there was any kids there. And the ones I put on have and will put on will be kid friendly up to their adults to decide if their kids can take the elements. But as so many TDer's are older or retired many no long have kids to take.

Now I think back there have been at least two and probably more that did include kids. No problem. And while I do not have kids does not mean they bother me. Oops, just thought of another one that had kids. Oh heck, just bring them they will have a blast.

There are usually a few kids around and Joanie always has games and coloring books, etc. to help occupy their time. Everybody has activities to pick and choose from, to keep them busy, even the adults! It's a bit like going to a summer camp...for everybody. Also, the campground is right on the Van Dusen River, with a little beach area. ( ...no life guard)

You bet we are kid Friendly.....this is Summer Camp for the young, and young at heart...... :lol:

I am now a retired elementary educator, and have a big tub which I bring for the kids to pick and choose from, and of course, there are all the things you like to do when camping out in the woods along a river.

On the registration form, which comes out the first business day of the New Year 2016, you can let me know how many people, including children. I also like to get the ages so I can make sure their are activities for them, and help match them up to any suitable aged playmates. Also, so I can make sure there are appropriate prizes for the Pay it Forward Raffle.....every kid gets to win something.

One thing I have noticed is that those kids that come back every year with their folks have been growing uP!! Some of them were toddler when I first met them, and now they are in their teens. As our gathering draws from all over, it has been wonderful to see the repeat campers, and how their families have changed over the years.

We really enjoyed our time there at 4.0. I don't know if we'll ever make it back. It is so far, and we feel like we should let other's enjoy.

Hi Joanie
Have you figured out a way for us to register online or pay you via Pay Pal??????
I know Dean has secured the mailbox! But, the mail system can be "Slow" too.

We are going to continue registration & payment method as in the past. No plans at this time to alter or change it. When reg opens you can always PM me here and let me know you have sent in your form so I will be on the look out for it.

Dean is busy building the web page for the registration launch. We are starting our count down to the New Year, as well as to the call in.
Also, we've decided to do hats this year instead of T-shirts. Some of you may still have a version of our original hats from the Inaugural IRG.

Have a wonderful New Year's celebration, wherever you may roam!
