Does anyone know what the date will be for 2018? I had such a great time this year. Part of the fun was for my wife who got to watch the entire thing from our room at the Worldmark with a spotting scope on the balcony. I want to reserve our room for next year.

I am sure that it will either be the 7th or 14th of July, just would like to know which. Thank you!

Planning for ORC usually doesn't get started in any real earnest until January. 

That said, the 14th is probably a better bet than the 7th.  Whatever you do make sure you'd be able to change reservations without cost if the date was different than you assumed.

Glad you had a good time!

The 7th is probably too close to the 4th of July.  In fact, I'm not sure which weekend will be "4th of July Weekend" in 2018.  This year was an exception, but generally the ORC is on the same weekend as the Oregon Country Fair.  In 2018, the OCF will be the weekend of the 14th.

I'll check with the other current ORC committee members to see if there is any reason the 14th wouldn't work, but I'm very much inclined to believe it will be the 14th next year.

Hmmm.  I guess we'll have to see what happens there.

There's another campground a bit west of Chinook Bend on the Siletz Hwy.  Anyone have experience with those folks?  Might be good to gather intel on an alternate or two just in case the new owners are less accommodating of our group.

I wonder what they're asking??? We could get a NWKA group buy going ensuring a kayak friendly camp for many ORC's to come!

If either of you have that much in either Pesos or USD then we need to be friends  ;D

$2 million may be a bit rich for my blood.

Regardless of the price, when it does sell we need to send our best NWKA/ORC representative(s) down there with cookies and motivating speech to convince them that they really really want to support our ORC event like the current owners have over the years.

The other campground to the west is Coyote Rock. I stayed there last fall. Not much for space really. Mostly seems like a live in trailer park, with a boat ramp.

Anyone local or that has stayed in the area enough to know what is available have any suggestions for alternative locations in case new owners aren't amenable to our little gathering?
