    Hey Joel, it's Marcia. If you would prefer something more formal for trash money I can collect the money from everyone when they are checking in to get their badges. Just a thought.

    Personally, now that we know the garbage fees will get covered... I think it should be honor system. See what these guys are made of.:deal

    thanks marcia and others for the inputs. all good.

    based on all the comments, we pretty much solved the problem........yeah i would like to think that way. all those who posted are good, but what about the majority who are not even reading this thread. just like the previous year and the years before that, we talked, a good portion complied but others just didn't care..

    i will request PSR to provide dumpster and we will pay for it.

    when you check in and get your badge, we will have a jar and based on the honor system you put whatever you could afford. no pressure. also here, we make people aware we have a trash issue.

    everyone needs to have a badge or no dinner or no raffle for ya....sorry that's how we've been doing it. you don't want to wear a badge - no one is forcing you. another reason, there are 200 strange people out there...:lol3 out there. how are we going to call your name? hey you it's me. that guy and this guy. yes, i feel good when people calling my name, you should too.

    we will still need volunteers to help jim spafxer (camp host) to manage the campground. geoff - you fit in well here and thanks.

    ideally, what ever stuff you brought in, bought in - you got to pack them out.

    That shit is hazmat damnit.


    Folks, especially L.A. County folks, don't fear how to get rid of your tires. Look for tire roundups, L.A. County has them about four times a year in varying locations and will take tires for free.


    If we end up with a similar stack left behind I'll volunteer to process them.

    Well hell that's a collection now, you've gotta keep going. Pretty soon it'll be a local tourist site.

    Well just might have hte KLR ready in time, finally ordered tubes, rim strips, and rim locks to go with my trail set of wheels and 606s. Boy it sure will be fun to have fresh meat on the bottom end (and that 14 tooth countershaft gear will be a hoot).

    Why did we buy firewood. A couple of gallons of gas and we could set these puppies ablaze. It would be so bright that they could see it from the space station!

    I am surprised that an Exxon Valdez that we know and love has not hit you up for the tires.
