"Regis, thank you so much for organizing this popular event! It was so good to see everyone:)
Is someone hosting the soup or bowl?"
"I am happy to report that it looks most probable that I will be able to come to the event and stay for a few hours (at least until sunset). I'll bring a bottle of wine and maybe some bread-like objects."
"Note to Jane. Lev took site 2. Room for one more there. Thanks again"
"Confirmed - bridge shall remain open. Source: Caltrans and Rio Vista websites. "
"I saw an update on the Caltrans link that the scheduled bridge closure has been postponed. Can anyone back that up ? "
"It looks like the weather gods will be smiling on us this weekend. No showers predicted until Sunday."
"I have the paperwork for Site 2 if anyone is interested. Friday and Saturday night(s). Thank you Jane. "
"Yepper. Galoshes and all. "
"24 hours and we'll all be camping!!!!!! Wohooo!"

16th Annual Pre Turkey Day Warmup, Nov 14-16 at Sandy Beach CG, Rio Vista Ca
November 14, 2025 at 2pm to November 16, 2025 at 1pm
Greetings. It's that time again. What time you ask ? Well, it's time for the Fantastically Fantastic Fullbelly Fall Food Fest. Sandy Beach CG in Rio Vista is the place to be. As of this writing, the Campground has lots of spots . Party Central can be at site #4. Rain or shine. There may or may not be shelter for us to hunker down under but more on that as we get closer. We'll have the usual pot luck on Saturday around 3pm since it'll be getting dark around 5ish. Generate more chatter in the comment section.Remember the motto.. Bring Wood-Bring Wine. Oh, and perhaps some food for Saturday. See More
