Things here in PA are quite confused between what the governor has spoken and subsequent clarity provided by memos and then the broad interpretation of those memos. For instance, every business that is not relied upon for preserving and sustaining health or life is to be closed per the governor's speech yesterday. Now, go through the State and some landfills are operating as usual and some have closed under this decree. Personally, I interpret landfills as essential to preserving health IF our waste can get to them. Another example is in the memo where rental companies can remain open, which I am sure the intention was for those that rent medical devices, generators, and the like, but two major landscape equipment rental companies are using that to stay open... Inconsistency is confusion. While I digressed to other examples, this is why the PA rest stops are shuddered - the workers who maintain them are considered non-essential, but I think a common understanding is that rest stops are pretty important to preserving health considering the damage an exhausted driver can do... So, perhaps stated better, there are unintended consequence.
I'm maintaining a wait and see position along with Nikki. While we both enjoy being social, our lives' path has taken us many places and through many challenges where we have relied only on one another. I truly believe this too shall pass, but obviously when it does there will be some changes to daily life. There will eventually be an immunization and treatments developed where those who get the worse of it can be more comfortable and increase the odds of recovery for those bad cases, just like Flu B. What I believe, in my one man's opinion, is the we, all the people of the world, need to build the time buffer for those experts, scientists, and doctors to gain on achieving these outcomes through social distancing and change of behavior. The one thing about mankind - it is one of the most adaptable forms of life the Earth has ever been populated by!
Sorry for my thread tangent, but it fell inline with the post by @Dadeo5472, and felt like a little campfire conversation ala keyboard!
Stay safe and happy camping!Last edited by geotex1; 03-21-2020 at 11:29 AM.

There are a lot of knee jerk reactions going on which is confusing to everyone. One that I like - All Beer, Wine, and Liquor stores are closed and considered non-essential. All beer distributers are considered essential (I don't disagree...) and are open...

We should probably keep the topic in this thread related to the actual trip. Those who have reservations will, of course decide when and if they choose to cancel. If the campground will be closed on the dates we’ve reserved, JJ will, of course, post that information here. The admins have been very gracious about opening the first post, so the poster can edit for any new information. Thanks,
Nancy
In other words, please keep your covids socially distanced in the covid areaLast edited by Houndbb; 03-21-2020 at 11:13 AM.

Thanks Nancy,
Some how I missed the last several post.
I do appreciate the information you are sending. I understand your frustrations, I am also going through them.
This thread is up to 124 posts and 13 pages (there's that number again Nancy ) , it's a lot to try and go through to fine information if I need to get information out to you,
please help by staying on point " The Gathering ".
As stated, this was not a rally, there for no regersterion fees to be refunded. I would suggest you check what Twin Grove's cancelation and refund policy is should the campground shuts down, or you decide not to participate. Check your receipt or go on line .
I will check with the campground some time in the middle of May on their status, if I do not hear anything beforehand.
I thank you for your support, and hope you and all your families are safe and healthy. We will get through this.
God bless you and your families with good health.
As always, safe travels and good health.

Hi...I just checked out the campground and found it fully booked except for map 1. I thought this would be a good place to meet fellow GD campers as we just bought a 2021 Solitude 377 MBS. I’ll call them Monday and see if there is anything closer to the group or get on a waiting list for cancellations. Now I’ll go complete my profile and signature.

Hello and good morning Dennis and Pat.
Welcome to the Grand Design family and to the forum. There are many great and helpful people here with useful information.
Thank you for your interest in our "Gathering ". I want to state again, this is NOT a rally. We are a group of Grand Design owners getting together.
There is no waiting list on our part.
There are 16 rigs attending so far. I know there is no spots near us , but the area you mentioned is not too far away.
Again, welcome to the family, forum, and hope you decide to join us.

Up the count by 1 RV! I just made a reservation for 7/23-26. We are in A08, but will be moved to the Central area should a cancellation occur. We look forward to meeting you all at our first Grand Design Gathering.
