    PowHaW 2, At the James River

    Happy Spring ODH! And with spring, PowHaW is back and better than ever...all one time before.
    This year we are at James River State Park and yes, we can fit in more hangers. 50 to be exact. Better yet, it is FREE to hang! Well, other than the "work" part of "Hang and WORK."
    We shall be renovating the old primitive campground and doing some trail maintenance right around it. It actually sounds like fun. Yes, we may bring our own, non powered tools, for this little adventure!
    Ok, for the basics;
    Who? Whomever wants to come. We prefer that you be able to participate in the project on Saturday but hey, if you are not up to it, you can stay at the campsite to help keep an eye on the gear and cook lunch and dinner. The first fifty folks get to sign up get it. That said, you HAVE TO SIGN UP and include your total party count. If you do not, then you are not hanging. It is that simple.
    Where? At James River State Park in Buckingham county. The address is 104 Green Hill Drive, Gladstone, VA 24553.
    What? This is the spring ODH, "do a good dead" event where we try to give little of ourselves. Last year was a great success, when we built canoe/kayak racks and put down ADA walkways at Powhatan State Park. Our success there played no small part in getting us free sites this year at James River. Well done gang!
    When? 13-15 May 2016 The project will be done, as last year, Saturday for about 6 hours, beginning in the morning.
    How? Sign up and come. That is it. Well, be willing to chip in and do a little something. Everyone can contribute. I have a lame leg and got SOMETHING done last year.
    ...and the food was AWESOME.....minus that swarm of "special topping Saturday night...we don't discuss that.
    The sign up sheet is below, I am certain that I have the settings correct. Go to it gang! Oh, don't forget page two on there, the "Meals" sheet. Probably the best part.
    Also, we will be having a silent auction, to raise some money for Friends of the Park. If anyone has any old gear laying around, or you are skilled at making things, such as alcohol stoves, feel free to contribute to a worthy cause. This park is NOT ripping us off so let us see if we can raise a few bucks and show some appreciation willingly!

    Hey Corey,
    Is your post info the typo? The sign up sheet gives May 13-15 as the "When".
    Your post states March.
    May does cover the weekend, March does not. Guessing May is correct, right?

    u.w.

    You are correct Wraith. I fixed it and I have added a part I forgot. We are having a silent auction, to try to raise a few buck$ for the Friends of the Park.

    I corrected the date man, it IS May. We are moving it to James River SP this year but I kept the name of PowHaW because people know it by that name. I just added "at the James River" even though it really was "at the James River" at Powhatan SP last year too. LOL It is at James River State Park. The only error was the month.
