    I know it’s early but we are planning for the 2020 Florida Week(s) of Rivers as I write this. We are trying to do a week 1 in the area just south and east of Tampa. This is a very popular area and the campgrounds are very difficult to book – for one site let alone 10 or 15. The earlier we make reservations the better. Below is the schedule. We are working to identify a campground that can accommodate a group our size for the first week – Tampa area. When we do announce this campground I recommend you make reservations as quickly as possible. Immediate reservations for weeks 2 and 3 are not as critical however we will let everyone know as soon as we decide on a campground. The second week will be back in the Ocala area however we have not settled on Rodman as the base of operations. We are looking at campgrounds in the Ocala National Forest which are a little closer to the favorite runs and potentially are a little cheaper, especially if you have a National Park Senior pass or team up with someone that does. The third week will be in the Panhandle area and may involve a midweek move to the western panhandle. The campground has not been identified yet.

    Week 1, Tampa Area, arrive Sunday 8 March, depart Sunday 15 March.

    Week 2, Ocala Area, arrive Sunday 15 March, depart Sunday 22 March.

    Week 3, Panhandle Area, arrive Sunday 22 March, depart Saturday 28 March – or whenever you schedule dictates.

    You can join us for one week or all three. I recommend the Ocala area week if you have not been before.

    Regardless of what week you go I recommend that you partner up for campsites. Attendees are responsible for making their own campground reservations.

    Keep an eye on the messageboards, we should have a decision on the week 1 campground in the next 3 to 5 days.

    Let me know if you are going and what weeks, I’ll keep a list to help with site sharing.

    Hope to see you in Florida next year. Look for a club program in the fall with all the photos from the trip.
