Thinking of camping at Ginny Spring’s Fri and Sat night for this event? Anyone else interested? Doug

Looks fun; Don’t know that I can make it, but I did put it on my calendar and also sent it out to some of my dive buddies to see if someone from the Nashville, TN area may want to make the trip down with me.

Doug, I might take you up on that. Do you know the price for the trip without a hotel room? guessing we need to pay for camping seperate. i am going to swing my Divers Supply in Marietta in the morning to get some more details.

Hey Mike I was in the Tampa store last week and they called the main store putting the trip together and quoted me $40.00 off based on double occupancy which makes sense as for the hotel charges $80.00 per night. Since the hotel is a good bit north of Ginny it made better sense to camp at Ginny for $20.00 per night. Especially since the Galaxy dive ends late Sat night I have no driving after the late dive.

Hi Doug, i dont know if i will be able to camp friday with you though but saturday is looking really good at this point. Will you still be camping if I can only do one day?
ALso i only have one request we need to get a camp site with electric. If you decide to camp both nights i will pay the electric for both that way you don’t have to move if i can only do one night. still trying to change around some vacation time but its not easy at the end of the year. Mike.

but i am still working on getting down there to camp friday though. also are you planning on diving before the event? friday morning? I am always up for more diving.

Yes I am camping Fri and Sat regardless. I want to get there before the Rally and enjoy with no rush to set up camp. I will be tent camping and have no need for electric just a nice spot close to the main spring and or dive rally have to find out where they are setting it up? Some diving before the rally would be a plus!

3 more weeks until the Dive Rally. I am signed up with Divers Suppy for the Rally.
Woo Hooo! Looking forward to the Galaxy dive, clinics and just a fun time!!!

I called Ginnie Springs about camping. You can reserve the campsites for campers and electric but the non electric tent sites are first come first serve unless you have a large group. Check in can be as early as 8:00am when they open. Check out is sunset of your last day according to there web site. I will try to get there Fri between 9 to 10am breaking camp Sun early am to get to Blue Grotto before 8:30am when the Dive Rally resumes. The Rally at Ginnie Sat does not start until 1:00pm leaving time for a morning dive.

Sounds good to me. I no longer need a site with electric so just hoping to get a good close spot to the dive site and rally. See you there.

Ginnie Springs did not have info on where Divers Supply would be setting for there Rally I was going to call Divers supply and try and get a heads up. Possibly Devils Ear but most likely the main Spring that goes into the ball room. Great camping area between the river and the main spring. Or Turkeys Roost if they do Devils Spring system.

Called Divers Supply and spoke to Justin the manager in Macon they have reserved the Pavilion at the main spring that goes into the Ball Room next to the playground.
I will be setting up camp behind the main spring and the river. Great place to camp close to the Rally!

Only 9 days left. Woo hoo! The weather is feeling good for camping and diving.
