All are invited to join us at Rocky Neck State Park on the Connecticut Shoreline on Friday May 19 and Saturday May 20 for PROMASTER CONNECTicut 2023.

Last year we had 9 Promaster Van families participate. Based on discussions with many of the participants, I decided to lock in site Osprey OSPR12 where I was located last year for Friday & Saturday. It's a good central site and should serve as an anchor site for any events we may want to have. In addition to the early booking, I'm contacting SquezeInn, hoping he will help co-host the event again!

If you're interested, you should book quickly, because spaces are being booked every day. Many campers want to get out there, and this is the weekend before the Memorial Day Camping Frenzy! Reservations are made at www.reserveamerica.com.

SITES TO BOOK: The Osprey area is a nice shady, yet comfy loop.

Right now, Osprey sites OSPR02,03,04,05,06,07*,08,09,10,11,12 & 16 are available... *I'm contacting SqueezeInn tonight - he may want to book site OSPR07 again... I hope so! The top of the loop has sites that are not too far away either!!!

These sites are just down the path from a beautiful beach, and are in a nice wooded area. As is typical in many CT State Parks, restrooms, showers, and water is nearby all sites, but no shore power hookups available... but for a few nights, this is a nice spot to stay, compare notes, see how others have built their Promaster, etc.

Like last year, I will be grilling CT's famous Hummels Hot Dogs for our Friday night dinner... my treat! They're great and the perfect supper after a drive to Rocky Neck for the weekend.

Here are a few pics PROMASTER CONNECTicut 2022. We hope for a BIGGER EVENT this year!

Campsites are $20 per night for CT residents, $30 per night for out of state. $9 booking fee.

Lots to do in the area. If you plan on a longer trip, there are 2 Casinos with free over-nighting, and many area attractions to enjoy!

If you reserve a site, please let me know so we can message some details in a group.

Hopefully if you feel a bit better you can come by for a short visit on Saturday (if you’re not staying too far away)?
I'm afraid we've got to bow out last minute. I was hoping I could kick this flu bug before now, but it isn't cooperating any better than the weather. We've been really looking forward to this PM gathering, but the consolation prize isn't bad either. We'll have more time with 2 of our daughters and 9 g-kids here in CT. Y'all take care. Happy travels!
Sorry to hear that Steve. I was really looking forward to seeing what you have done with your van. Definitely understand about spending time with the "grands" though. And as @carolinavangirl said - There's always next year!

Well, Darn. I was really looking forward to seeing Shiny again. However, VI is tentatively on our summer itinerary.

Take care.

I was wanted to thank everyone for being so gracious to share your knowledge and let us tour your vans. They were all outstanding and gave us lots of ideas about how we might want to fit ours out. You were so welcoming and encouraging it was inspiring. Thanks very much for including us. Happy trails to you all.

It was great to neat everyone and see their vans. We all have different needs and ideas and I’m sure we all learned a lot this wet weekend.
Many thanks to our two hosts - ProEddie & Squeezeinn for all their hard work & planning!

And thanks to proeddie's humongous tarp plus carolinavangirl"s box of rope, the HEAVY rain was a minor deterrence.
