"Thanks for the offer, JLT. The thought did cross my mind recently. At this time I believe that between Scott and I, we should be ok. He has some shelters and I have some extra tarps and whatnot. Thanks again. "

"Regis, if you need the Tent of Doom, just let me know. You can come and pick it up at any time. I'll have it ready. I even acquired another 15 x 20 so you can link them all together and have an enclosed area that's 40' long. But the…"
"Ok, Volks. We're gonna need ya to break out those Sun charms. Make more if you have to. There's a storm a brewing. You may be witness to seeing a turkey swim to the party. We've been through this thing…"
"I can't think of a reason why there'd be a fire ban at Sandy Beach. And as far as what spot is Party central, I at first posted site 4, just because that's where it's been before. But it can be anywhere convenient as…"
"Can we have camp fires?
I have lots of wood from wine barrels.
I'm bringing mac and cheese to share:)"

"That, just sayin', was for those of you coming for Saturday only. "
"I'm cooking a 12-13# bird with an electric roaster oven. I'll try to make gravy as well.
Another friendly reminder about Sandy Beach is they're kinda strict on the 2pm check in time. They will likely have you park…"
"I'm in site 15 (traditionally Joe & Corey's spot). Sharing welcome and encouraged. I may come Fri eve, though I still have nightmares about the Fri pm Bay Area traffic, so may arrive Sat morning. I'm looking forward to seeing…"
"Nobody's talked about the turkey yet. I can't be relied on to do the grilling, since my wife will be recovering from surgery at that time. But what we did last year was buy a fully-cooked turkey breast from Trader Joe's, and heat it…"
"Assuming Friday no-show will be ok I can book a site for 2 nights for $89 using license plate RENTAL. A second vehicle will be charged $10 if they catch it on the Sat/Sun. So that works out at $45 or $50 each for Saturday night if you are up for…"
"Hi Lev, you and me are in the same one-night boat of part-timers. Unfortunately, "This site requires Friday and Saturday to be booked together"
Currently at the usual north end of things, sites 3,6,7,8,10,12 and 15 are showing free…"
"Hello Campers,
I just checked out the website, it appears there is no open slot for our event date. (or reservation is not working) So, if anybody willing to share 1 night/Saturday I would come out camping. Hope to see you…"
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…See More
"I'm planning to arrive in a rental van on Saturday, from touring the N coast. In keeping with Brit stereotypes, I can bring spuds and make mashed potato, and boil some green veg for the pot luck. Does anyone have space to share with me in an…"

Well. It's been about 24 hrs since getting the Wolfsburg Weekender. It's up on jack stands waiting to get new tires and shocks. Stop the madness.

Tried to book for Friday night. Available for walk-ups only at this point. Is there anyone that can take a second westy in their site Friday night?

There are no sites left. Since I live in Livermore, I'll drop by to say hello. I would still be willing to share a site (and fee) on Friday night.

Regis101: Thank you for the lead on Gene. Gene, I would like to share the site with you on Friday and Saturday nights. Friday my wife and daughter will camp. Saturday I am solo. Hope we can work this out. Thanks!

Hi Regis,
I would be willing to share a site (and fee) on Saturday (4/11/2015) night. Do you know who has a spot to share? Thanks, Lev
