🎀 KARAOKE CANCELED FOR THIS WEEKEND 🎀

With several overnight camping cancellations this weekend, along with lower participation in Karaoke over the past couple of months, we have made the decision to cancel Karaoke for this weekend.

While the forecast is looking a little better, there is still the possibility of scattered storms, strong winds, and localized flooding. Taking everything into consideration, we feel canceling Karaoke is the best decision.

We are still planning for Tripwire Band to perform tomorrow night! 🎢 We’d love to see a great turnout, so come out, bring your friends and neighbors, and enjoy a fun night of live music with us! ❀️

Thank you for your understanding, and we hope to see everyone tomorrow night!
