If someone has already posted this topic please feel free to give me an e-slap in the face.

This thread I'm starting for people who want to find a place to crash for mo-cheepah and for people who already have reservations who want to offer a site share.
This may help everyone to lower costs and maximize fun or whatever else might float boats!   

We did it last year with a couple other guys and made some friends for life.

Try checking that to see where things are.  In my experience you will want to wear flip flops or "shower shoes" into the showers just about anywhere.  In 6 years at sea, and sometime very rough seas, my bare foot skin only touched the deck no more than a total of ten times...  yeah, I'm paranoid about athletes foot but I have never had it so there

The tent-site rates are $25/night, which can be halved if ya have tent-mate. So, figure your gas/flight to come and go, then meals. I think P-fest costed me total of like <$400 last year and we drove from Mich.

while  porcfest what kind of food is there?   

[lloydbob1]

There is a small food pace on the premises where you order breakfast and lunch stuff at a window and take a number.  The food has been reasonably priced and the food good in the past.
We need to find out if they have it open during the week that early in the season.

And there will be group meals planned for all week long.

Lloyd, didn't you volunteer to cook breakfast for everyone one day?!

You know you are more than welcome to hang with us again Turbo!  Lots of Veg Fare planned and the camper is da schiz!  We might have family coming too but we'll make it fit.  I've never been to Rogers so I hope the spaces are as big as they were at lest, at Gunstock.  We'll be taking extra tents (the same ones as last year) but we'll also have the camper and the fridge so you can store stuph etc...  and if the rain hits, you can always stay dry...  if there is room...  ya know... dogs and such.

We might book two sites so that we can offer them up cheaper and have more space...  it's not confirmed yet but I think we might.  More space means less cost to firewood and such, plus if ya wanna chat with some others you always can.

We are Keeniacs so...  maybe we can help.  We might go ahead and go up early, like for the whole week so the sleepers in the family (ones who are still asleep...  but may catch the fever as we have) to come and chill out for a bit.  Sorry to sound so uncertain but we're not decided yet.  We probably will though...  I suggest hanging out in Keene if you want to be around lots of locals who are having a lot of fun with the system here.

This sounds awesome.  I will be in NH during porcfest and would love to share a campsite for at least one night.  What would I need to bring if anything?  Ill be flying in from WA on the 25th I believe.  Obviously I'll need a sleeping bag or blanket or something.  Aside from money and myself, what else do I need?

Not much!  ...  just come and have a damn great time!  After my first one last year, I felt heart broken leaving NH...  you will too.  I promise.
