The Sons of Norway Camp is located in a picturesque valley just east of Mission BC. We have the use of their campground which has a limited number of 30amp electric/water sites. It also has an adjoining field for dry camping. There are no full hookups. We will have use of the clubhouse for both Friday and Saturday nights which has cooking facilities. There is a large restroom facility with showers. The outdoor heated swimming pool should be up and running for those who wish to swim. There is a corner store for limited basic supplies, ice cream and coffee nearby. It is recommended to stop in Mission on your way through (Safeway, Save on etc.) and pick up any supplies you will need. Dogs are welcomed as long as they are leashed and picked up after. Camping is also available for extra nights if you wish to come early or stay longer.
If anyone has some ideas as to what they might like to do we are open to suggestions, so let us know. Friday evening we will have a social hour in the clubhouse to catch up with friends and meet a few new friends. Then Saturday afternoon the usual Open House and Potluck Supper in the evening. We could have people choice awards for best theme, trailer restoration etc.
