Hi Volks,

For those in Ontario, upstate NY, Northwest PA, or eastern
Michigan.... Apologies for not cross-posting this sooner.

BTW, The Vancouver Van-meet tonight was excellent.

Happy Trails,

> Who likes Rules?:
> Valens is a "dry" campsite. We have never been given
> any trouble by following the Red-Cup rule. Please,
> lets continue this tradition, and keep your
> "recreational beverages" concealed, and your behaviour
> family friendly. If you are unsure on how to hide a
> beverage, we will be holding a workshop on Saturday
> called "Red Cups and Thier Impact on Modern Camping
> Societies".
>
> If you choose to bring a pet, please keep that pet on
> a short (under 3m) leash, and clean up after it.
> Monkeys included.
>
> Leave your "world's loudest soundsystem" at home. I
> like bass as much as the next guy, but the neighbours
> might not like your music "mash-up" of Manilow vs. DJ
> Shadow as much as you.
>
> If there is any power available on, or within a reasonable
> distance of the camp, it will be reserved for medical emergencies
> only.
