WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

It's almost time for everyone to be together again at "BUS BOO!" Buses By the Beach annual fall campout an Halloween before Halloween party in Grand Rapids, MI Sept. 14th, 15th & 16th. It looks like we are in for another great turn out of Bus Pilots and VW lovers from all over the country. So bring your musical instruments for some campfire jamin'. Remember, it's not about sounding good, just feeling good!

If you have not made reservations please call the campground so we can plan for camping space. Call Grand Rogue at 1-616-361-1053 located at 6400 West River Drive, Belmont, MI 49306. Make sure you tell them that you are with Buses By the Beach group so they can group us all together. http://www.grandrogue.com/

New this year will be a "family friendly" camping area that will have a quiet hour of 9pm. If you are interested make sure you let them know when you check in.

Back by popular demand, we are camping during the West Michigan Living History and Educational Association presentation of Early America Encampment at Grand Rogue Campground. Visitors can view first hand what life in early America was like. There will be period craftsmen demonstrating their skills, including a blacksmith and a woodworker. Working with hand tools, they show how everyday implements were made in early America. At the Encampment, history buffs wearing authentic period clothing and living in period shelters, present programs throughout the weekend. Activities will include musket and cannon firing, men's and women's period fashion shows and tactical demonstrations.
