Creepin’ on the Creeper!
(Thursday June 9th) or Friday, June 10th Thru Sunday June 12
Ok folks. It's time for our annual Creepin' On the Creeper and hanging out around the campfire! Everyone had a great time last year The shuttle services have just reopened so I’ve reserved 14 spots Sat. June 11th that you'll need to contact me for.
Campsites reservations need to be made on your own via recreation.gov (See Details below).
Camping: Beartree Campground: It’s about 7 miles out of Damascus, East on Hwy 58. We have gone ahead and reserved site #4 on Chipmunk Circle. Go to Recreation.gov to reserve your site. There are some nice sites on Beaver Flat Loop too, but they are 1st come/1st serve. But do it fast as camping is still a SUPER POPULAR activity and sites go FAST!!!
Backbone Rock: Another option closer to Damascus and also on Recreation.gov (No showers, tho.)
Lodging: MAKE YOUR OWN RESERVATIONS: You have many choices. The Holiday Inn Express in Abingdon, VA: reservations can be made at 276-676-2829. There are also many other hotels in Abingdon or B&B’s in Damascus: go to www.visitdamascus.org/stay/ or http://www.vacreepertrail.com/services/lodging.htm
Friday, June 10th Shuttle & Bike Rentals: I have made shuttle reservations to be picked up in Abingdon at 3:45p. We will need to check into Sun Dog and pay and pick up any rental bikes by 11:30 am to start our ride to Abingdon. Let me know who is interested in this option. Cost: Bike & Shuttle: $40 + tax Shuttle Only: $25 + tax Or, we can do our own car shuttles by driving to Abingdon do lunch there, ride to Damascus then go back for the car.
Saturday, June 11th Shuttle & Bike Rentals: I have made reservations for 7 bikes and 14 shuttle spots for Saturday at 10:00 am (10:30a Departure) to go to Whitetop Station under the name of Palmetto. Please contact ME for those spots…however here is the phone number for Adventure Damascus: 276-475-6262 Bike & Shuttle: $40 + tax Shuttle Only: $25 + tax (Check in by 10am under Palmetto Ski & Outing and pay there) We will meet at the Sun Dog location at the curve in the road on Hwy 58 (Address: 331 Douglas Rd.) (this is on the East side of town).
Friday & Saturday Night Campfire & Social Time: The plan is to hang out around the campfire and have dinner together. Folks staying off site can come. Bring something to grill. You will have to check in and pay ($3?) per car so you may want to carpool. Gate will close at 10:00 pm.
Sunday, June 12th, Out & Back Ride: Meet in the Food City Grocery Store Parking lot on the west side of town in Damascus, VA at 11:00 am and be ready leave at 11:30 to bike the Virginia Creeper Trail from Damascus to Abingdon: (not as steep and less crowded). We will be doing a short ride (about 7 miles) to the Alvarado Station where we will check out the Abingdon Winery where you can order a flight or glass of wine and charcuterie or cheese trays and eat lunch (Plan on packing or picking up lunch prior to the ride at the grocery store) and then ride back. Wine bottles will fit nicely on your water bottle rack on the bike. (This option can be done on Friday instead...)
