Camping
Primitive camping is free – ground fires are only permitted in the fire rings that are present on site. Please do not move them from their present location. Norborough will reserve two sites with fire rings for those who wish to do primitive camping with a fire ring, from Friday to Sunday. Please consider a donation to defray our cost of reserving these spaces.
RV – there are 34 RV spaces that a) must be reserved and b) are $16.00 a night if you hook up to the water and electric that is available.
You must reserve your RV spot before May 1. Due to the nature of this site, members of the Eagles may or may not be camping at RV sites. The Eagles have requested that we reserve the number of spots that will be used prior to the event, so that they are aware of which locations their members can use if they choose too. They have requested that we reserve those sites prior to May 1.
Merchants will be camping free if they choose an RV spot.
