Summer Celebration.
Join us for our annual end-of-summer gathering. This year we’ll be in Eastern Washington at Lake Wenatchee State Park, nestled in the foothills of the North Cascades near the tourist towns of Leavenworth and Plain. This is a relaxed, beginner-welcoming, socialized dog-friendly space to reconnect with community, nature, and ourselves. Bring your family. Bring a friend. Bring yourself.

- Restroom buildings with flush toilets and sinks
- Bathhouse at the beach
- Camp store where you can pick up sundries, hot foods, ice cream, coffee, etc. at the beach
- Electric outlets are available in restrooms
- No covered shelter in the group site

In consideration of other campers, pets need to be vetted prior to registration so email us if you’re considering bringing a non-human family member. And if a burn ban is in effect no wood or charcoal fires will be allowed.
