June 15, 16, 17 at beautiful Lumos Vineyards and the Crisp Family FarmPhilomath, OR On behalf of the Crisp/McCoy family, Clubgwagen.com...We invite you and your family and friends to join us for a day of off road exploration at the amazing OR Dunes, and 86 mile long stretch of undeveloped coastline with open access for vehicles on both natural dune trail networks and gorgeous beaches. And then the main event.... our annual gathering of the G community at the Lumos Vineyard and Crisp Farm Again, this year involves a small not-for-profit fee of $40/adult to cover the cost of great food, beverages, amenities, and clean-up for the whole weekend. This worked out well last year to support most of the family's expenses. IMPORTANT!! Those who opt to join in the Oregon Dunes off-road portion will also need to procure a Oregon Off Highway Vehicle (OHV) Class II permit sticker for their G and a dune flag. See "GWagen Prep" for details. Please do this on Thursday when you arrive in town near the dunes (any ATV shop) or by mail ahead of time if you are arriving late. Farm is located at: 24000 Cardwell Hill Dr., Philomath, OR 97370 The Crisp farm is home to the beautiful Lumos Estate Vineyard and makes for a wonderful base to enjoy the weekend’s events and share camaraderie with attendees. Camping is available on the vast lawn and there is a cabin (Little Cabin) available for the group to use with regard to bathing, cooking, dish washing, and small group socializing. Last year, the Little Cabin is where most of the socializing and Saturday barbeque happened. This year, there's a new larger place to gather! Over the last year, Dai/PK and family have been hard at work remodeling/restoring the old dance hall in the big barn including the addition of a grand deck off the back overlooking the vines. There will be lots of room to stretch-out so this will be the main gathering space. Most choose to camp onsite under the huge trees and on the soft grass in front of the barn, so you’re welcome to park and stay in your truck, in tents, or small RVs. The black berry bramble has been cleared so now there's even more room on the main lawn. If you choose not to stay on the farm, motel/hotel accommodations can be found not far away in Corvallis, a wonderful Oregon town with stores, restaurants and one of OR’s best farmer’s organic markets (see the "Where to Stay" tab at the top of this page). Please bring your own towels and toiletries if you plan to use the shower and bathroom, and please make sure to keep it clean! There will also be a fresh & clean port-a-potty so please try that first before bombing the Little Cabin’s carbon-neutral atmosphere. Part of the dues pays for this rental and its post event cleaning. Well-behaved pets are welcome, please make sure your pet does not go inside the Little Cabin or house, and please clean up after your pet. Make sure the pet is good with children and other animals before bringing it. The family house is strictly off-limits and reserved just for our host’s family - so please respect this request.
