Given the amazing food everyone contributed last year, this year Saturday dinner will again be a potluck format. Everyone is expected to contribute. Other meals will be your individual responsibility.
Cost:
The cost will be the cost for camping which you will pay directly to River Runners. It is approximately $20 a night. Price to be confirmed.
