3rd Annual Lights In The Whites August 20th - 23rd

#1

Post by Berkshirecoleman »

3rd Annual Lights In The Whites is coming up this August 20th - 23rd at Apple Hill Campground in Bethlehem, NH.

This one is 12 🦌's per person per night for the group site. This can be paid directly to Ryan Linke once there. There is plenty of room on the group site. If you need an individual site we ask that you call Apple Hill Campground and talk to the owner Rob to reserve and pay for your site. NO NEED TO CALL FOR GROUP SITE.

Saturday evening we always do a group dinner. The food for dinner is still TBD. A raffle will follow the dinner. We ask that you bring something to contribute to the raffle if possible although it isn't a requirement.

As for other activities in the area, I have included a list in with the pics. There is also a town pool down the road for a small fee on those hot days. It is also located right in the White Mountains of New Hampshire so there is plenty of outdoor activities and plenty to see. We encourage everyone who comes to spend a day exploring the area. Its truly one of the greatest places.

Any other info that anyone may have, they can either reach out to me or directly to Ryan Linke. Hope to see many of you there. We doubled in size last year from the 1st year. Let's see if we can double in size again.

I want to send a big thank you to Ryan and everyone else who helped make this years Light In The Whites gathering a smashing success. What a great time we had visiting with old friends and a few new ones. It’s hard to believe it’s tripled in size in 3 years. We’re looking forward to next year.

A huge thank you to Ryan for holding another great gathering. Karen and I had a great time. From talking with fellow collectors to meeting new ones, the potluck dinner on Saturday night was amazing. We also had a great time exploring the beautiful white mountains of New Hampshire. Already looking forward to next year!
