I thought camping was suppose to be a reasonably price way of vacationing or just getting away.

It goes on to say the town cannot afford the cost to house volunteers needed for storm recovery. Another article today states a man beat another man unconscious, was arrested, and later released on $50,000 bond, which means he had $5,000 cash available to pay a bail bondsman. Perhaps he should be asked for a donation toward storm recovery.

Or Lake Stone campground? Perhaps camping could be allowed at Turtle Point? (Don't know what kind of facilities are available there). Maybe a deal could be worked out for a group rate? Just tossing some ideas out there. How about that Christian campground on Hwy 4? Or Lake Stone campground? Perhaps camping could be allowed at Turtle Point?
