For those who have not attended a Paynetown campout I thought I would give you a little information as to what to expect.
The dates this year are May 8 – 9 -10.
The campground in located in the Paynetown state recreation area located on Lake Monroe.
It is 6.5 miles south of Bloomington In. on highway 446.
You can arrive as early as noon on Friday.
One reason we like using Paynetown is that it is close enough to allow family’s to attend. It also allows people to come down in cars to bring more creature comfort items. Kids are more than welcome to come; other members will be bringing kids. After all it is a family membership.
When you enter the park there is a $5.00 charge to get into the park. Once you are in the park, you may enter and leave using your camp site pass.
You do not have to go to the campground office to pick up a site tag.
I will have the site tags to hand out.
Each site tag will cover 2 motorcycles when leaving and entering the park. The gate people usually just wave you on through.
Each site can occupy 2 tents, and up to 6 people. Showers and restrooms are located within 20 yards of the camp site.
I always try to reserve the campsites so we will be able to camp as a group.
See map below.
We are not really required to camp on the exact numbered site.
You may camp anywhere you wish within the reserved sites.
We usually move picnic tables together for a group fire ring.
Ice, firewood, drinks, and food type stuff are available at the camp store. The store opens at 7 or 8 in the morning and has coffee.
One or two miles north of the entrance on hwy 446 are 2 restaurants.
The closes one is the scenic view, lots of good food, and they do have carry out.
They also have a great selection of beer on tap.

The second one is the Log Cabin restaurant and lounge, THIS ONE SELLS BEER, but may be limited on selection.
The Trailhead-Market and Noshery (yes I had to look it up too).
This place will deliver pizza, subs, and salads, to the campsite.

The campout cost is $16.00 per tent for 1 or 2 nights, payable to me; I have paid the reservation fees, in advance.
No food or drinks are included in the camping cost.
When you arrive you may want to check to see if fire wood or ice may be needed for the group.
As wood and ice may be a group cost type of thing.
On Saturday there may be group rides, but at this point I personally don’t have any rides planned.
There is always an option to do some zip line runs at Explore Brown County, just south of Gnaw Bone, IN. They are located on Mt Liberty road 2 miles south of Gnaw Bone.
Go to the web site, log in, and click on the calendar, click on the event, enter the information about people, and tents.
If you have questions please feel free to call me 317-201-4952.

One of our past members Jim Farley plays in a band called Mother Grove, they are playing at the Rathskiller this Saturday the 14th at 8:30.
Peggy and I are planning to attend anyone interested can meet us there.
Mother Grove, an Indianapolis music group in the genre of celtic rock, brings Ireland to Indiana. They are a self proclaimed “kilt rock” group: too complex for Celtic rock, Mother Grove (or, as their fans call them, Mogro) is its own breed of Indianapolis band. Claiming influences as diverse as Flogging Molly and the Dave Matthews Band, Mother Grove is comprised of five members: Brad Sprauer, Laura Adams, John Holland, Ron Fife, and Jim Farley. The group plays bar room stompers, rousing chanters, and passionate tear jerkers, all infused with complex harmonies and modern spins on a classic style of music. The compelling duet of Sprauer and Adams intertwines on many songs with the traditional pennywhistles, fiddles, and bagpipes of Celtic music to create a unique sound that you won’t find anywhere else in the Circle City.
