OK WARRIOR KEEPS HINTING I NEED TO GIVE DIRECTIONS ON HERE SO I WILL ...THANKS FOR THE HINTS WARRIOR....LOL
Directions: IN Rogers Turn east at the intersection of 2nd and Locust in Rogers. Travel east to the campground, following signs on HWY 12 for 4 miles, then turn left on North Park Road take Highway 12 east to Prairie Creek and turn left at the brown sign which says Prairie Creek Recreational Area towards the boat ramp and campground. After you pass the guard shack and pay your entry fee, travel straight into the park but take the first left roadway. You will see the Overlook Pavilion on your right as you approach the lake. The Park Attendants have maps of the park and can give you instructions. It has been reserved in the name of POF/NWA Singles i have no idea what time we are allowed to start congregating at the pavillion but ill be at camp site 51 as of friday afternoon in a big tent and a green van ...if its not there im somewhere else.....lol! if these directions are not as clear as mud let me know.
Steve is this all looking good and are the directions good to go on this.  | |

| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/13/2008 7:30:26 PM | | Is anyone riding up from the siloam springs area? I will get the dogs and polish in siloam so that they have less time to get warm. BTW my name is Mark. | |
|
| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/13/2008 8:20:37 PM | Hey I decided to come sometime Saturday morning. I will bring 3 pkgs. hot dogs, 1 lg can of pork and beans, and I have some baked beans. Look forward in seeing Renee and Kim again from the pizza event.... I still have to register on the other site, but I'll git er done | |
|
| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/13/2008 8:56:07 PM | The directions are fine but I did not see a sign depicting North Park Road. Maybe it blew down or maybe I was just blind. It is right past and across from the Arrowhead Boat Sales place. I have been working 14 hour days so I have been way too busy to keep up with all this. Is there anyone coming from Clarksville area that can give a ride?
I would ask everyone to not spend too much on this. It should be sugfficient to bring something which is enough to feed 6-8 people. If everyone does that there should be sufficient food. Guys all know they are supposed to bring meat items so guys showing up without bringing what they should will be asked to run back to Harps or supply cash enough to buy what we need. I will bring some cheese/sausage dawgs and a package of Tysons Chicken filets
My camp site was bumped back to #41 for the third time. It is irritating to say the least! They keep moving me farther from the pavilion and I am expecting the next time they call me I will be moved somewhere outside of the park. | |

| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/13/2008 8:59:11 PM | Yona... Is the big can of baked beans your response to the current gas crisis? Maybe it is a good thing they moved me away from the main camp area!!! | |
|
| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/14/2008 2:04:44 AM | | jasonsdad yes there are a few leaving from gentry area i will try to leave early did you want to follow us up,Big can of beans better bring my fan dont want to get caught up wind from the green puff..something i thought of someone could bring a digital camera for pictures of the party so they can be posted later someone could also bring a empty cooler or two to put the perishables in we can always run to harps for ice | |

| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/14/2008 3:26:30 AM | If baked beans worked in my gas tank I'd use them and try to get off cheaper..lol
I'm planning on bringing my digital camera so we can take pic's, I've also got an ice chest I'm bringing but I'll be sticking all the pop in it, Pepsi is giving us can's for this event.
If they keep moving you back away from the pavillion and your using a tent you can throw it on my spot if it's big enough. I haven't been out there to check it out, but they haven't moved me as far as I know. We'll just have to figure out where to put all the cars. Jamar (Sharon) and I both will have a car on my spot also. Not sure how you'd deal being camped on the same spot with 2 women and a child. Anyone got any prozack just incase?
Also if anyone doesn't feel comfortable finding the park, or gets lost you can email me before you leave home and I'll send you my cell number and run back into town to meet you and let you follow me back. Just let me know before you leave because I don't have forwarding on my email. Once I'm there my cell phone is all I'll have. | |

|
| Northwest Arkansas BBQ at Beaver Lake May17 Posted: 5/14/2008 6:16:12 AM | I am in Clarksville I need a ride But I have alot fo things to bring? And a dog and a teenager and alot of bedding ice food etc... I might have to downsize some? I am scared to depend on anyone for a ride and make all that food and have it go to waste. I threw in the towel on this event I hate to get my hopes up again. When are you going and when are you coming back? How much room will you have? I may consider Michelle | |
