.. ..How about a group camp out for the whole family in the heart of Orange County?

..I know a place where we can have a few or a bunch show up and If I can get confirmation we could have a Group section just for us which includes our own showers, restrooms, fire ring etc..

..It is also only one mile or so down a paved road to the big city with restaurants, stores, etc....

..I don't think they have a big screen but I'm pretty sure we could set it up to show on the side of your motorhome especially if we do the group site..

..The only things I do know since it is in the city is, no beer/booze and there are no noise rules I think from 10pm-8am..

....I helped set up one with air at Truckhaven but I think you got a newer one since...

..I think we can have up to 30 vehicles if we have our own group site...Campfires, Smores, hot dogs and steaks...Hopefully we can get some interest in this..

..O'neill Regional Park in Trabuco Canyon (El Toro/Rancho Santa Marguerita)..

..They have done a lot of work on the place to make it more family friendly and updated a bunch of stuff while keeping it's rustic setting..I actually spent the 4th there and was presently surprised of the peaceful setting..

..Dates could be either the nights of July 20-21 or August 17-18 if that is more convenient.

..There are trees at almost all of the sites and if we don't get enough people for a group campsite we can just get the spots near each other..

..The campsites themselves are $20 total per nite no matter if you are a tent or need a 55' RV drive thru site. An additional car per site is $5 (I think) which means you can double up the tent sites for total of $25..

..I've got the group prices somewhere but I will look those up if we need them.

..We could do either the 20-21 or the 27-28 of July..

..Along with the family setting and close to town, for those who don't mind getting there trucks a little dirty we could do Holy Jim trail (2wd rated) or we could bicycle thru Trabuco Canyon or their is fishing without a license at nearby Irvine Lake..A bit pricey but you don't have to buy a license..

..I prefer the 20-21 due to my work schedule..If no one else chimes in Dave let's count on the 20-21st to get the camping gear out..
