Campout next Weekend at Tomoka State Park - Jewish Singles and All

 



Campout at Tomoka State Park
next Weekend

 
Get away from it all for a weekend full of the peace and quiet that only nature can offer.  Mosaic provides most of the gear, the food, and the other essentials.  You just pack your clothes, tent (if you have one), bedding, etc.  Spend the weekend creating friendships, exploring a new part of the state, and enjoying nature.

See full details below...

 
Campout at Tomoka State Park

When: Friday, Saturday, & Sunday, April 1 – 3, 2011. Friday night dinner will be served around 7:00 pm. If you arrive after 9:00 pm on Friday, you're on your own for dinner

What: The best way to welcome spring is to camp out at Tomoka State Park -- voted among the 25 Best Spring Campout Locations in America by Camping Life magazine (the only one in Florida that made the list). Here is a taste of "real Florida" right in our back yard, with a variety of wildlife habitats and endangered species. Tomoka State Park (pronounced Toe-mocha) has many options and is close to the beach. Two organized activities for the group will be hiking along the half-mile trail once inhabited by Timucuan Indians, and observing bird (160 species) and marine life while canoeing along the Tomoka river and its surrounding creeks (canoe and kayak rentals are available). You may bring your bike if you'd like to ride; there are no rentals available at the park. There are bathrooms and outdoor showers near the campsite. If you want indoor showers, they are located by the front of the park – a short car ride away. Park website: http://www.floridastateparks.org/tomoka

Where: Tomoka State Park (386-676-4050) is located three miles north of Ormond Beach. We reserved Tomoka's Group Campsite. The park is 10 minutes from the beach and 15 from the nightlife of Daytona Beach for those who tire of roughing it.

Cost: $55 Mosaic members, $60 non-members. Price includes all meals from friday dinner to sunday breakfast. NEW FEATURE: Option to pay through Club Express with a credit card. Go to www.southfloridamosaic.org and sign in. Click on the calendar, and then the event and you will see "Register". Click on that and pay. It's that simple!

Bring: Tent, sleeping bag, pillow, towel, hiking boots or sneakers, hat, water bottle, bug spray, rain poncho, flashlight, bike if you choose, and clothing as desired. Mosaic has tents that you can borrow if you need one (please let us know so we can reserve one for you.)

Directions: Take I-95 North towards Daytona Beach. Take the SR-40 exit, EXIT 268, toward Ormond Beach. Turn RIGHT onto W. Granada Blvd (heading east). Travel 4 miles. Turn LEFT onto North Beach Street (the turn is right before a large bridge). Travel 4 miles. The park entrance is off of North Beach Street. If you want to take the turnpike, cross over to I-95 in Fort Pierce (at Okeechobee Road, exit 152).
