Happy Trails Tasty Campers!
Welcome to the 4th edition of the Camp Tasty Gazette. This email is packed with a lot of new details so please take a moment to read it thoroughly, even if you’ve already registered. And for anyone new to the thread, a reminder that Camp Tasty is Sep 27-30 at Black Oak Ranch, about 3 hrs north of San Francisco.

Some things on the docket for Sunday that should entice you: “Todd Talks”, jazz show/wine/cheese happy hour, and an epic Cobo/Kris Viera B2B DJ set Sunday night. Now without further adieu, the details in this massive email.

Framily Feud
This year Pub Quiz is out and Tasty Framily Feud is in! But “survey says” this game will only work with your answers. We want 100% participation, so please make Richard Dawson proud and answer this short survey NOW!: https://forms.gle/XEpX4X9vdXdHL9Qo8
Rideshare + Camper Van / Trailers (limited space)
Camp Tasty is about three hours north of SF / Oakland, in Laytonville, CA. Carpooling is highly encouraged! We’ve set up this spreadsheet where you can coordinate rideshares. Also, please note that there is LIMITED SPACE in Tony Town for camper vans / trailers. There are no camper vans / trailers allowed in the main camping area. Priority will go to planners / setup crew. After that, it will be in the order which people register and inform us they need space for their camper van/ trailer. If you haven’t already told us, please reply to this email so we can plan accordingly. Note that anyone is allowed to sleep in their vehicle in the parking area if they wish.
That’s all for now. Remember to register! We’ll be back next week with even more details.
Happy trails!
Jen & your Camp Tasty Captains
