Father’s Day Weekend and beyond…
For Father’s Day Weekend, a church group basically took over Marval and they had their own activities planned, so we didn’t get as much business in the Activity Center. Monday was also pretty quiet, but things were beginning to pick up again yesterday when we had our last day of work for the week. Continue reading

I also wanted to be there in case Cathy had any questions because it was her first time of running the place by herself. She did have a few questions, but on the whole she seemed to be doing okay.

Memorial Day Weekend in review
Now that Memorial Day Weekend is officially over, there are few enough campers here that I can blog again! We had a hectic but fun few days. Continue reading
