Church Camping/Float Trip

Dates July 22 - 24th

 

     We have four campsites reserved at Onondaga Cave State Park for the night of the 22nd and 23rd.  These are full hookup sites.  Each site can accommodate up to 6 people and 2 sleeping units (one with wheels).  Cost of camping for 2 days is $54.50 per site.  If you do not camp but would like to join the fun a variety of overnight options are availabe at Ozark Outdoors which is about 2 miles away.  www.ozarkoutdoors.net or 800-888-0023

     The majority of Saturday will be "on your own".  There are a variety of things to do at Onondoga State park.  www.mostatparks.com or 573-245-6576  There is a beach on the river, a playground and trails (bring Off if you're choosing this option).  There are also cave tours available.  Onondaga Cave rates are $12 adult, $7 child, $10 senior.  Cathedral Cave tours are $8 for adults and $6 for children.  We will have a group meal on Saturday night.  Meat will be provided.  Please bring a dish to share.  We will also have a worship service on Saturday night.

     We are planning to float on Sunday leaving from Ozark Outdoors at 10:00.  We will do a 5 mile float.  This should take around 3-5 hours.  This would allow time for anyone who wants to drive down Sunday morning to do so.  (Leaving church at 8:00)  Cost to float on Sunday is $17.50 per person with 2 people in a canoe.  A child 12 or under can ride free in a canoe with 2 people.  A raft is $22 per person on Sunday with children 7 & under free.  Tubes are $20 per person.  If anyone has their own canoes we can work out shuttling arrangements.  (A Saturday float could also be arranged if someone wanted to float both days.  Canoes are $23 on Saturday. Rafts are $33 on Saturday.)

     Please contact Teresa Scott with any questions or to make your reservations.  Camping reservations need to be made with Teresa by July 10th but sooner is better.  Canoe/Raft reservations need to be made by July 17th but sooner is better.   tscott@usmo.com or 636-359-0274 (call or text)
