Da Rulz:

    those who brought them in.

    Pooper scooper regulations will be enforced.
    Please be considerate of anyone with allergies.
    "Dangerous" canine breeds (Pit Bull, Rottweiler, etc) are not permitted.
       (Sorry, this is a campground rule, and we're getting the site cheap)

3.  No firearms, period or otherwise.

4.  Quiet hours (2400-Sunrise) will be enforced.  By the mundane sheriff, if 
    necessary.

4A. Any bagpipes played prior to 0800 will be washed in Back Creek, along 
    with the player thereof.

5.  Campfires/Fire pits permitted.  10' rule will be enforced by the site
    fire marshal.  Be warned:  I (Francis du Chalfont) am the site fire 
    marshal.  I am also part of the local fire company, so don't expect any 
    slack.  

5A. Any wood you burn must be either free of nails, OR ANY NAILS MUST 
    BE REMOVED FROM THE FIRE RING BEFORE YOU CLEAR THE SITE.  Please leave 
    the site cleaner than it was before the event.

7.  This is tent/pavilion camping only.  If you bring a mundane RV, you will 
    require a mundane site at $14.75/night. 

Directions:

Make your best way to WV Exit 5 (Inwood) on I-81.

Go west on Rt 51 towards Gerrardstown.  This is a left turn from northbound, 
right turn from southbound I-81.

You will pass through Gerrardstown.  
WARNING!  THIS IS A SPEED TRAP.  OBSERVE THE 35 MPH SPEED LIMIT.

Go to the top of the mountain.  Turn left at the stop sign.

You are now west on Rt 45.  If you made a right turn, you will eventually end 
up at Exit 12 on I-81.  If you went straight ahead (you fool!), you will 
eventually end up on Rt 7 at Shanghai.  (In this case, turn left on Rt 7, turn 
left at the fire station).

Go three miles, into Glengary.

Turn right at Glengary Grocery.  This is Northbound Rt 7.

Go 1.6 miles.

Turn right at Back Creek Fire Station/Elementary School.

Go about 3/4 mile to the "Lazy A."  We'll be in the back quarter, by the 
creek.  No, we do not have use of the barn (perhaps next year).
