  1. I use a Belkin F5U109, bought it at Office Depot for like $40. I use it with my Sport Trak Pro for uploading waypoints via easygps and also to upload maps from Mapsend and transfer waypoints thru mapsend.

     

    I have also used it on a Southwest flight connected to my laptop using NMEA for real time mapping and data gathering.

     

    Works Great for me!

     

    edit - $30 Belkin Direct

  2. I wish I would of seen this post before we left. ;)

     

    We left Thursday morning for Champoeg and Dorenbacher's Children's hospital!

     

    Sorry, we didn't stop by with the kids. Who knows, maybe my kids went to your campsite on their own. :bad:

  3. Starting at 2 p.m. there will be a kid's Parade through loop A. Meet at the entrance to A loop near campsite A47. All kids attending Champoeg are invited to "dress-up, ride bikes, walk pets, roller skate or whatever" in the parade. All adults are invited to sit along the route and enjoy and cheer.

     

    At the end of the parade all kids will be given scavenger hunt list which should be completed by the end of dinner break. Meet at campsite A36 to check in your finds and collect a prize. (around 6 p.m.)

     

    At this time all kids are welcome to participate in a "make-it and take-it" craft activity and for the younger kids there will be coloring books available.

     

    Pooh Princess aka Mrs. SugarBeats will be placing a kids only cache with clues posted on a bulletin board (located near recycling area). That will be a find anytime cache. Only one visit per child.

     

    TMG has mentioned having a kid's only pinata. So watch for her post on time and location.

     

    We will be using the bulletin board mentioned above to post any other kids activities.

     

    Kid activites are done by Stampin' Granny, Mrs. Sugarbeats, Team Tired Feet, and familyO'foxes

    A Last minute Anarchy event includes a combination of karoke, dancing, and shooters.

    It has been dubbed "Champoeg Idol", and its gunna be a riot.

  5. You have to wonder when this particular thread will die out.  I suspect in July???

    Die out in July?! Well, then the discussion will start up again about Champoeg 2005. Planning and talk will start in August. Campsite reservation will start in September or October (can't remember which month it is that we can start "holding" our spots). :D

  6. I (shotgun's other half) may come join you, and lend a helping hand. I am first aid trained/cleared all the "safe" adult qualifications for youth organizations and school

    help, and quite good at those nature walks if needed. Can't ride a trike anymore tho' and don't do diapers :>. Maybe we'll connect when we get there..stop by and say hi, Family of foxes./wanderlost, and any others...

    Yes, please stop by and say "hi!" Looking forward to meeting you!

     

    You mentioned you can't ride a trike anymore and that reminded me about Jay riding a trike for a contest. It was something their reserve unit (Navy) did to raise money for a charity. Grown men racing trikes. Very funny sight. ;)

     

    Amy :D

  7. That's along the lines of what I was thinking.  Have them put together and hide a cache by kids for kids.

    I'll bring the larger ammo box and a logbook for starters.

    LazyBoy, that is nice of you to donate a cache container. I'm sure the kids will have fun! ;)

  8. At the risk of sounding like "the mature one" I would like to throw out a few of things:

     

    1. We have a terrific relationship with the folks at the park. I would hate to see it get wasted for a water balloon fight within the confines of the campground.

     

    2. A water fight sounds fun, especially if it is hot. This would be a good thing for the area where the Apparatus was held last year......provided we clean up afterwards.

     

    3. I know I don't want my camper trashed, and I can probably speak for others who will be decorating their sites. Electronics and water don't play well together.

     

    -Jay
