We are planning a camping trip this spring!!

Please look at each site and decide which one looks the most interesting for our group to visit.  We will be spending 1 Saturday night there.  Depending on the amount of GeoChicks attending, we may need some parents to volunteer to go with us.  Getting a bus would be very expensive....
