The Lynden Campout - A Good Sam Rally

We moved from Beachwood Resort, 17 miles east, to the Northwest Washington Fairgrounds for the annual Lynden Campout. This Good Sam event is held every year and has great participation from our Canadian Goos Sam neighbors.

The staff always arrives one day early to set things up. All the staff gets to wear the new colored uniform this year. Donna made all the vests. Fifty of them!

My brother, Jim and his wife Eileen, operate the Good Sam store at the rallies, and we set up right next to each other.




We have a nice 50 amp service, water, and are using our green hose to dump our gray water down a sewer pipe.

This is our third year at the Lynden Campout. The weather couldn't have been better. Temp in the 80s. Mount Baker nearby was beautiful.

We watched as the rigs began coming in.

There are over 80 rigs here this year. Around 30 from Canada. These are all chapters of the Good Sam club.

This is Jim and Eileen setting up the Good Sam store where people can buy patches, shirts, decals, hats and other Good Sam stuff.

Donna manned the registration table handing out goodie bags, first timer ribbons, and pins.

And the happy couple......us!
