No More "Structures" at Halloween ?

[Fundytrail]

Did anyone hear the rumor "structures" will not be allowed at camp sites this Halloween?

It was reported here that the Haunted House that annually in the past is put up in 1600 across three sites was supposedly told they couldn't do it for 2019. May be related.

Yes, that is what the news is on a few of the FB groups. No large structures that have to be "constructed". Blow up are ok. It is said that those of us that have reservations for Halloween will be getting an email with the new policy and guidelines. Will let you all know.

Wow - that's really too bad. Some of those set-ups were remarkable and really added to the environment. I wonder if they are running into issues with 'constructed' items not being built to code.

When we were there in October the last time the CM I talked to about it said that they were concerned about the traffic buildup in the loop, as well as the traffic on the main road behind the site backing up as well. Campers in the loop, while impressed, were complaining about not being able to get out or around due to the backed up traffic. At that time it was just a complaint they were getting regularly, not sure if that was the final reason or not, but I could see where it could cause problems for others.

Hmmm, interesting. That's too bad. I understand the back-ups that could take place - but we sure enjoyed the sites!

MNSSHP starts in August now (last 2 years)... sounds like it’s not too early!

In loop 1600 on two sites now




They’re still setting up

Some folks did not get the word. A guy has been building a giant structure in the 700 loop all afternoon. Several trailers full of large wood sections. Hope it is done tomorrow, will get pictures. 1200 and 1300 loops seem to gave the best stuff so far. Decorated carts everywhere.

Waiting to see it completed
And what they do with the full size coffin.

They brought in a 24 ft. Uhaul and unloaded yesterday.

Good grief

Snowmedic: is your site close to the construction in the 700 loop?

No, I’m over in 1636, going around looping making my way over in that direction now

Yay! I was hoping to see some campsites decorated and maybe decorate ours as well!
