Yogi Bear's JellyStone Park at Mammoth Cave!!!



This weekend is the beginning of the FALL FESTIVAL weekends planned at the park. The campout will cost $18.00 for the weekend, food included,  and attendees will need to be paid in advance no later than 09/18/2012. This cost will cover camping in the primitive section of the park and Saturday's meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner)  and Sunday's breakfast. If you choose to have a spot with water / electric for a camper then you can make reservations outside of the pack by calling (270) 733-3840. There are reservations under “Angela Morrow” if you would like to try and reserve a spot close by us.


If you are interested in the campout please sign up at the exit of tonight’s meeting so that we can have an idea of the number of families interested.  Or you can sign up on the Scoutlander web site.

The campground has the following amenities and activities planned for the weekend….

Yogi doesn't want to frighten his little friends with ghosts and goblins, so this weekend is designed for kids twelve and under. A "non-scary" Halloween celebration for the weekend that includes the Magic pumpkin Patch, pumpkin painting, games, paint your Yogi Halloween tote bag for candy collecting, costume and site decorating contests and of course trick or treating for the kids. (Bring candy for 300-350 kids.)
