GET READY FOR MWGB 2012!

NOTE: Camping reservations and event registration are not open at this time.

The theme is "Halloween In July" and the mascot is Spook the Owl for MWGB 2012.

The Halloween theme gives us a lot of great options for planning activities throughout MWGB.  Take advantage of all the great post-Halloween sales to pick up costumes and decorations for you and your campsites!  As usual there will be a campsite contest with the top three winning a GPS unit plus free 2013 camping and a number of honorable mentions who win free camping in 2013.  We encourage everyone to embrace the theme and come dressed in costume on Saturday! Feel free to dress in costume any time, but if you only have one costume - wear it on Saturday!

We will once again be at the Fulton County Fairgrounds in beautiful Wauseon, OH. The event will be held July 26-29, 2012.

As always, the schedule is being reset and with this them we will be doing a lot of fun activities.  So stay tuned for more updates.

GET READY FOR BASH!

Our "Getting Ready For Bash" primer and our "Arriving At Geobash" guide will get you educated a little on how to enjoy and arrive in style at bash.  Knowing is half the battle right?  One of the best tools you can use is your registration print-out.  You can make one by clicking the link in the right hand menu, right at the top.

We make putting on MWGB seem deceptively simple ;) but the reality is that without the support of these incredible people and companies, many of the things you experience as an attendee would never see the light of day.  A lot of the "nice touches" are provided through the support of our supporters.
