We have discovered that we can rent one of the Girl Guide lodges in the Picton area.
Location will be less than 15 minutes from the event this summer, and can house up to 18 people.
Accommodations are not 5 star, not even 3 star.
Consider it to be indoor camping.
It would be bunk beds, that you would provide a sleeping bag, pillow etc for sleeping on, there is a community kitchen, and of course, washroom facilities and showers, although of a more public variety - (like a gym)
As you can imagine, the cost to people interested will go down based on the number of people interested, and as most of us just basically sleep and leave, this is a perfect alternative to the $100 per night facilities currently available.
My wife and I are probably going to book Friday night and Saturday anyway, and everyone is welcome.
I have been there before, and I recall a fair bit of parking. Across the road there is a beach, and well, sandbanks very close for those visiting spouses.
OK. - Need a list of definite attendees.
