    Might be a good idea to repost the directions from, say I-91, or 2. Some of us memory challenged old farts don't remember stuff from a year ago.

          registration?

          is there anything we have to do to pre-register, or is it as simple as mailing in this form: www.roveramerica.com/Dash_Weekend_08.pdf ?

              rovertek,

              are my 2, 4-paw drive Rovers (Labs) also ok in the camp area?

              also, from reviewing the area, it appears there are some ponds/lakes nearby.

              are any accessible and ok for them to go swimming? a tired Labby is a happy Labby.

              last question - any facilities in the camp area?

              thx for your help,

                      weve sure got plenty of rain but that only makes the off roading more challenging.....
