Hello Volks,

I wanted to invite everyone to the Second Annual ICABOD (Iowa City Area Bug/Bus Occursion in the Dale ) Camp out held in the Valley of the Cedar River - Palisades-Kepler State Park in Linn County, Iowa August 15th-17th. Come out to camp out in a beautiful park located on the Cedar River just outside Mt. Vernon/Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

http://www.iowadnr.com/parks/state_park_list/palisades.html

Reservations can be made for either electric or non-electric spots starting May 15th via the Iowa DNR Reservation Website (https://eservices.iowa.gov/iowaparks/index.php). Prices are $16 for electric sites and $11 for non-electric sites. In addition, there are 12 electric and 9 Non-electric sites on a first-come-first-server basis. Modern shower and restroom facilities are available, as well as a dump station. Please make reservations as soon as possible and pmail me for a site suggestion. I would like to have all of the VWs in one area but we cannot reserve an entire section - just site by site.

There are both dock and trail activities available. A dock to the Cedar River is available for boating and fishing is available on the river banks. Trails include a variety of wildlife, scenic views, and exploration of Indian Mounds.

We will once again be traveling to the Bi-State VW Club 13th Annual Show and Shine Picnic located in Hamption IL on Sunday Aug 17th. Attendance to the show is not required but there will be a caravan traveling from the camp out to the show on Sunday morning. This is a very worth-while show and I would like to bring a stronger showing to their events. The drive is about 80miles from the camp site on Hwy 30. More information can be found at http://home.mchsi.com/~bistatevw/picnic2008.htm

Directions - ATTENTION: State Highway 1 is closed between Mt. Vernon and Solon IA due to flood. Please do not take this route and please follow the route listed below.


Feel free to google/mapquest this address. It is in the correct location

700 Kepler Dr
Mt Vernon, IA 52314


Basic Directions from I-80: Take Exit 239B and head North towards Cedar Rapids for about 17 miles. At the intersection of Interstate 380 and Highway 30, head East 9 miles. Turn right onto Kepler Drive and into the park. The entrance of the park is in a grove of trees and is difficult to see. However, that grove of trees is the only cluster of trees on the highway. From the East, take Hwy 30 West. The park is about 4 miles West of Mt. Vernon IA.

Feel free to respond to me with any questions or clarification requests. I will make any further information available as it becomes available.

Hope to see everyone on Aug. 15th!
