If you have events or news you would like to share with the rest of the campground (new members, births, weddings etc.) please email us at:
THE MRT OFFICE AND ALL MRT EQUIPMENT WILL NOW BE MONITORING C-B CHANNELS #14 OR #19. CAMP MEMBERS ARE ENCOURAGED TO JOIN IN AND HOOK UP RADIOS AT THEIR SITES AND OR VEHICLES. THE CALL SIGN FOR THE OFFICE WILL BE "MRT BASE". IF ANY MEMBERS NEED HELP FINDING OR HOOKING UP RADIOS FEEL FREE TO TALK WITH PAT. IT IS OUR HOPE TO LINK THE CAMP TOGETHER VIA TWO-WAY RADIOS.
A local fire fighter who volunteers for both South Cle Elum and District 7 fire departments has been out of work since last summer due to a car accident. He and his wife have five kids ranging in age from 2 years old to 15 years old. We are collecting donations for the family, along with the local fire departments, to provide Christmas gifts for the family. If you are able to help you can donate in the camp office, or you can contact Carol or Crystal. Thank you

The Kittitas County
Commissioners held a meeting yesterday (5-20-09) at 2pm
regarding the proposed RV ordinance that was sent to you by email.
The Caretakers, several embers, and our attorney were present at the
meeting.
The Prosecuting Attorneys Office had a representative there that spoke
and requested that the ordinance be tabled at this time. The
Prosecuting
Attorneys Office is
planning to revise the COMPREHENSIVE CODE at a
later date, and will announce when the Public Hearing will be held
regarding the situation. This will occur somewhere around September,
October, or November (most likely November) of this year. Our
attorney spoke and
pointed out that the ordinance was written poorly,
and he submitted paperwork to the Prosecuting Attorneys Office to use
as a guideline when
they start their work on the COMPREHENSIVE plan.
The Caretakers also gave our petition and signatures to the
Prosecuting Attorneys Office for review.
Kittitas County is proposing an ordinance regulating
recreational vehicles and park model trailers. This ordinance will
impact Mountain
River Trails, as well as surrounding areas. Click
