During our stay at Orchard Beach, we would provide an Open House for fellow campers.

At Interlochen, we would like to utilize the picnic shelter as a gathering spot for informal get-togethers, morning coffee, and Saturday entertainment.

Some places to visit while at Interlochen. On the shores of Lake Michigan, the city that Michael Moore calls home has much to offer: local wineries, Inuit art, sandy beaches, good (even great) food and lots of quirky history. And then there are the cherries. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/26/travel/what-to-do-in-traverse-city-michigan.html

We are working on providing a 1927 Kamp Kar for display along with historically accurate camping equipment and an early Clare camper towed by a Ford Model T. These items would fit perfectly with the state’s and TCT’s Centennial Celebrations.

CARAVAN IS SOLD OUT!!!!

Will there be any time during the Interlochen stay (or indeed at any time during Camp Dearborn and the Caravan) that the “Tin Cans” would be on public display? Thank you for a reply. It looks like a blast for those who already own their vintage home on wheels!!

Absolutely. Look at the agenda above for “open house” and that is when the trailers will be available for viewing.
