The Mac-Pac NQR (Not Quite a Rally) Blue Moon Campout will take place the weekend of the Blue Moon in June (June 29 - July 1, 2007) on approximately 120 acres of fields, woods, steam and pond at Webb's farm in Leona, Bradford County, PA, about 20 minutes west of Towanda, the county seat.
Approximate location is N41° 47.581', W76° 44.243' between Leona Road and Barrett Hill Road. Map of the area at: http://tinyurl.com/2zcr5g
It is about 45 minutes east of the PA Grand Canyon, about an hour and a quarter south of Watkins Glen and a bit more to the Finger Lakes wineries. It's about an hour north of Eagles Mere and Worlds End and Ricketts Glen State Parks and a bit less than 200 miles from the Mac-Pac Bike Room in Lionville, easily done in under five hours with a gas stop. Great riding roads in just about any direction and nice back roads for getting there.
Facilities include a large covered pavilion with cooking apparatus, indoor shower, indoor toilet, indoor oven and stove, refrigerator, sink with hot water, horseshoe pit, volleyball area, softball field, a large campfire pit and the aforementioned stream and pond. Pictures of the facility will be posted to the Mac-Pac site shortly. Plenty of room for tent camping, even a few RVs - sorry, no services. Lodging is available nearby in Troy (10 minutes west) and Towanda. Hotel info will be posted shortly.
