Maybe you did not get the word. The staff at the Cardiff State Park is being furlowed to save funding for a bunch of studies being done to validate the studies that were done a while back. No bid contracts were awarded to consultants who have established close ties to certain powerful state legislators. Any leftover money will go into the pension fund for all our hard working legislators. I heard that there will be a lottery to determine who gets to camp on the two weekends a month that they plan to have the campgrounds open. Lottery preference will go to those in the correct political party based on the size of your donations. The correct political party is to be determined based on the results of the next round of elections. Smart campers hedging their bets by having spouses each register for different parties and are sending money to both. This, of course, will not guaranty that you will actually be selected as one of the lucky citizens who get to camp at the State Park. It will just get you to the head of the line for consideration. Those with letters of recommendations from their state Senator or Assemblyperson will almost be assured of getting a camp site. You can see the current recommended donation amounts for these letters by visiting your legislator's web site. If you are lucky enough to be selected, you will be able to pick your preferred camping space. Selections must be made in person and small service charge will be added to your registration fee. Don't forget to feed the parking meter when you visit the park. Be careful if you go on a Thursday. If you park in the wrong place on every other Thursday, you will receive a ticket. Don't you just love the way our Government works. Bob Last edited by dsafety; 03-11-2010 at 06:36 PM. |
