SATURDAY ACTIVITIES
Horse Drawn Hayrides - For young and old alike, our hayrides start at
11:00 AM on Saturdays, and 7:30 PM on Wednesdays in July and August.
They are free and begin at the hayride barn. An antique farm tractor may
be used if it is too hot for the horses, or they are not available. Weather
permitting, of course.
Sheep Shearing - We will show you how the shearing is done, and
answer any questions you might have about these wonderful, woolly
animals.
Cow Milking - Anyone and everyone is welcome to try and get some milk
the old-fashioned way, from a cow. We'll show you how.
Pig Chase - It's an old-fashioned pig chase for those wishing to
participate. You will be competing with those in your own age bracket.
Ribbons are awarded to the winners. Fun is guaranteed.
Horse Shoeing - We will show you how we clean and trim our horses
hoofs, and then fit them with new shoes.
Campground Parade - Decorate your golf cart, bicycle, wagons, baby
carriages, etc., (be creative) and meet at the pavilion at 2:00 for our first
ever Campground Parade. Spectators can set up chairs along South
Drive and watch the parade pass by.
T-Shirt Tie Dying – Bring a white T-Shirt or we will have them on hand to
purchase. We will learn how the hippies made their fashion statement.
Christmas In July - All the thrills of Christmas with Christmas songs, a
decorated tree, Santa, presents, the works. Those giving a gift will receive
a gift. Label your wrapped gifts Boy, Girl, Adult or Infant, based on who is
giving it, and bring them to the office before 2 p.m. (Please keep gifts in
the $ 5.00 range.) All children will receive candy.
Craft Fair - Reserve a free table if you wish to sell your handcrafted and
homemade items, or come and view the wide array of talent reflected in
the many items that will be displayed for sale.

with your fellow campers to be the chili champion, or simply come and
sample the culinary capabilities of your friends. Entries must be home

Clown. Lots of fun for children of all ages.
Magic Show - Mr. Magic always has a few tricks up his sleeve. He is sure
to amaze young and old alike.

fundraiser for The American Cancer Society. We are always looking for
people or businesses to donate trays. Please contact the campground

Pleasant Acres. Bring your favorite dish up to the pavilion at 2:00 and

everyone. Bring your own plate or corn spears.

band but he sounds as good as a stage full of performers.

Rock & Oldies Bands from around the Tri-State area. Dance to the latest
hits or just sit and enjoy the music.
