Hey, All!
I called Peace River Campground a couple days ago to get current camping prices. I think they're the same as last year. Group rates are $10 per person per night for ages 3 and up. We need to send in a $100 deposit to secure our wilderness spot for the weekend as soon as we can. Check in time for Friday, March 9, is anytime after 8:00 am, and Sunday's check-out time is 11:00 am.
In the past, we've had people send their camping money and their fossiling money to us prior to the trip. This year, I thought it would be easier if everyone just paid their camping fees at the campground office upon arrival. Colin and I will handle the deposit in the next week or two. I'm assuming it would be easier on Mark Renz if we do try to get all of our fossiling money together in one lump sum before the trip so that we're not wasting time collecting money when we could be in the river digging for treasure.
Please feel free to start sending in your fossiling money at your earliest convenience. For ease of depositing, please make checks payable to Kristie Bulla and include a total head count for those being covered by your payment. Our address is: 2306 Lane Ave, Ft. Myers, FL 33901. Please include your email address if you'd like an email confirmation when your payment is received.
And just for the record, I hope Colin's right about the water temps. I'm going to be HUGE for this trip, so there is no way I'm going to get a wetsuit over my belly! I hate to disappoint people, but I will NOT be going into labor during this Conch event. My due date is April 18, so that would be way too early. I did have a dream that Drake's arrival will be on April 3, so we'll see what happens.
I can't wait to see everyone!!!
Love, Kris
