This year's celebration is being held Saturday August 26 at the Burnwood Pavillion located across from the New River Bridge visitor's center. Dinner will be served at 5:30PM and is being catered by Dickey's BBQ. Cost is $17 per person or $34 per family. Unfortunately there is no camping available at this site. There has been some discussions about camping at Grandview Sandbar/Glade Creek/Army Camp which would be free or someplace like Ray's which would involve paying for your site. Any ideas or opinions will be considered.

Wow! That's next Sat! We'd like to participate, boat, camp etc. Gvsb or army camp will probably be our choice. Can dinner be purchased at time or need in advance? Thanks for posting.

Anyone planning on attending the event Saturday needs to go ahead and sign up. If the response doesn't pick up in the next day or two, we will have to cancel the Celebration.

There's just no way I can commit to coming. It would be a last minute thing for me, but I do hope to clear up enough time to hop on a Upper New trip.

I see that the Stehman family registered twice. I deleted the second registration.
The registrations and counts on file are Cliff Beck (1), David Bell (1), Jim Bobbitt (2), Woody Davis (4), Rhonda Steele (5) and Gerald Stehman (4). That makes a total of 17 for dinner.

I'm interested in attending the celebration if there is still room. And I have a lot of space around the house if anyone wants to stay here. I have some room inside the house, a big empty garage, and a good bit of yard to camp in (with pretty tall grass right now).

I almost forgot the most important thing. My wife and daughter did their first solo upper new trips and got to meet you guys and somewhat start to understand what I love about that place so much !
