Can we get our housekeeping campsites together with friends?To make this happen, you need to RESERVE AS ONE GROUP (One payment). I've made 8 reservations at once so all the confirmations come to me and all 8 are right next to each other. You'll have your firepits in close proximity and some of you will even share a common wall. You cannot request specific sites. You'll receive your sites on check-in.
Could I use the trip to stimulate my fitness training business?Yes! That's exactly the idea! Teach them to Control Their Destiny. Create your own training program for different levels of fitness. Make it an activity for all your clients but emphasize to them, this is not a sponsored activity. They are responsible for themselves! Have them subscribe to the newsletter. Activate everyone you know! Make it about Team Building!
