Fees

If you are a member of the Old North State, and your dues are paid, the Camp Ground fee is $FREE. If you are not a member, then the campground fee is $25.00, the same as a membership. Everyone, member and non-member, must register through this site. Pre-registration is very helpful because it allows us to plan a little better.

In keeping with supporting America's military, this event is free to Active Duty and Reserve members of our Armed Forces.

Trail fees are $5.00 a day, and are paid directly to the forest service at a pay station in the Outpost store near the campground. Both members and non-members are responsible for their own trail fees.

Dinner

The fee for Saturday night supper is $5.00 per person. You can expect this meal to be a fried chicken dinner from Bojangles.

Event Shirts

T-shirt orders close on Friday, October 14 . As you may know from previous years, we won't have any available for sale at the camp ground. Shirts are $15 for sizes Small - XLarge and $17 for sizes XXLarge - XXXLarge. All shirts are in adult sizes only... Sorry no youth available. The shirt will have the graphic at the top of this web page proudly displayed on the back of the shirt and the Old North State logo on the front.

Finally

A weekend can sometimes be a lot of time to commit to something in this busy age we live in, or packing the whole family up for a weekend's camping can be a strain. So I would like to point out to our members that if you can only participate for the day, please register any way and just come in on Saturday. A little rovering can go a long way. I know things are a little uncertain with the cost of fuel these days. That is why we think our very inexpensive, very close to home event would be the very best way to spend an October weekend.

Registration is now open and you will be able to register on line at the link below.

Hope you can join us; it looks like it will be a great year!!
