Wetwesties-Camano Island State Park- Campout
Where
Camano Island State Park- 2204 S Lowell Point Rd, Camano Island, WA
Description
Come and camp with us at one of Washington State's most beautiful campgrounds! We’ve had about 30 vans the past couple of years and hope for more in 2024!
Camano Island State Park (CISP) is a 134-acre camping park with 6,700 feet of rocky shoreline and beach. The park provides sweeping views of the surrounding mountains and offers opportunities for shellfish harvesting.
Bring your binoculars and try to spot the resident grey whale named "Patch". Also eagles in the trees, nice trails and one of the closest campouts to Seattle & the I-5 corridor.
Camano Island is about 40 miles north of Seattle and then 20 miles west of I-5.
CISP requires reservations in advance on this website:
https://parks.state.wa.us/223/Reservations
Reservations open 9 months in advance of the desired date, and CISP fills up fast, so reserve ASAP. Set your alarm for 7AM to get a great spot. If you haven’t previously reserved a Washington state park site, you may want to get an account set up in advance, as making reservations can be a bit tricky.
Saturday night potluck. If you have tables you can bring, that’ll help us at the potluck. And we love having musicians.

Greenwood Car Show
Where
6703 Fremont Ave N, Seattle, WA 98103-5330, United States
Description
This year is on track to be the biggest and most attended Greenwood Car Show yet. This coming year the show falls a week later than normal as we alway do the last Saturday.
Last time this happened, it was the biggest show we ever had, hands-down.
Also, this year Greenwood is planning on bringing back the Seafair parade, that hasn’t happened since 2019 
We’re in the works & planning to hold the parade on the same day after the car show.
As the Car Show loads out, the parade participants would load in.
In turn we would also leave room, at the north end of the Car Show footprint for a Extended Car Show until the parade is over.
The parade would be rerouted from his original path to follow Greenwood from 67 to 73rd for staging and then start the parade at 73rd heading north to the stage at 79th and through 80th St
85th 90th would be the extended Greenwood Car Show area.
This is a general plan that is not completely finalized yet.
But it is in the works and subject to change as we’re doing our best to make sure this works for all the businesses in Greenwood and everyone involved so we can all be successful and have a great day and evening.
As always, we need our community’s support!
Being a much larger extended event, only means it will cost much more.
Please donate anything you can or become a sponsor or bring your car, donate some raffle prizes or Volunteer, because we can use and greatly appreciate the help and support across-the-board.

Wetwesties-Rattlesnake Trailhead- Campout
Where
Lost River Rd, Mazama, WA 98833
Description
Northwest Forest Pass required ($30 available from the US Forest service and possibly available at the Goat’s Beard store in Mazama if you forget). No reservations required. This is a primitive camping area with a pit toilet but no water, no power, no picknick tables, not a single luxury. Located about 22 miles West of Winthrop and 10 miles West of Mazama, WA. There are a few dispersed campsites with fire rings. There is normally a fire ban this time of year. I know of no limits on vehicles per site. The last couple miles of road is gravel and there is one short rough spot about a quarter mile from the camping area that has never been a problem for my van, but does require me to slow down to walking speed. Bring water. Check Facebook page WetWesties - The Pacific Northwest VW Camping Society for details, questions, updates and to put yourself on the “Who’s going” list.
