Fair time is quickly approaching and it’s time to get the skinny out on how things will go at Zumwalt Campground. The unofficial Zumwalt Campground website has been updated with information for 2017. What happens at Zumwalt Campground during Fair weekend will surely be the groovy and sublime experience of every year, but surprises are in store as the event celebrates 25 years. Hopefully we’ll hear more about that as we get closer to Fair.
Last year the event organizers implemented two significant changes that are being continued. The first is that they did away with having campers line up before the gates opened for Zumwalt Park. This actually was a return to the practice in the early days of Zumwalt Campground, but now there seems to be more attention on where Zumwalt campers are hanging out before the designated time. For more details on staging and waiting to get into Zumwalt Campground check out the unofficial site here. Last year Zumwalt Campground completely revamped the ticketing and check in process with great results that are being repeated and refined this year. Zumwalt campers purchase ticket through Lane County Parks (Still on sale as of June 1st?) and have their documents scanned and are banded without ever leaving their vehicles. For more information about tickets and the check in process check out the unofficial website. Last bit to share is that there is that the Zumwaltopedia is chock full of great information available to help campers know what to expect and have an awesome time.

Author: El Scorcho (not his real name)Been camping for Fair at Zumwalt since 1994 and still haven't seen it all. Why else have a blog for something that lasts three days, once a year? I am not an employee of the City of Veneta and have no affiliation with the Oregon Country Fair. Well, I go to Fair and I do volunteer stuff at camp, but that in no way makes this website and blog official. Consume with caution! Archives
