Legacy Circle
While basic campground infrastructure has been completed, there are still some essential elements that must be funded if the campground is to open in May. Funds are needed to:
- make final contractor payments
- equip the campground with picnic tables, fire rings, horse highlines, manure bunks
- necessary landscaping
- pay our share of operating expenses for the campground's first few years
- build an endowment to ensure that the campground delivers a quality experience for future generations
Donate as a business, as an individual, family, group of friends, as a club or organization. Note: The state prohibits naming rights on individual items, however generous donors will be recognized on the website and at the campground gathering area.
