On Oct. 20, 21 & 22, the Army of Atenveldt will grace the kingdom of Caid with a visit. Being the Gracious Hosts that we are, I know the people of Caid will welcome them with all that is proper…
The site will be Glen Helen Regional Park in San Bernardino. We will be using the boy Scout Camp (same site as Caid Crown and, additionally, we have the meadow and forest area above it. Those arriving between the hours of 9am and 5pm must go through the ranger station and tell them that you are with the S.C.A. Anyone arriving outside of these times must use the secondary gate which will be manned by S.C.A. folke until 11 pm. Afterwards you’ll have to walk up and find the key.
Fees will be 50 cents/night/person for camping or $1/day/carload. The day to day fee will be collected at the Ranger’s gate and the overnight fee will be collected as you enter the gate.
All Parking will be around the lower circle. Only two cars will be allowed up to the site at a time and one of these will be an emergency vehicle.
We hope to have a ferry service as well as some trucks available to help lug up the heavy gear. There will be no exceptions to thic and the roads will be blocked and guarded
The fee for the site will be $1.50 per adult for the weekend (weather you camp out on the site or not; this is a site-use fee for everyone) & 75 cents per child under 12.
