||| FROM SAN JUAN COUNTY PARKS & FAIR |||


San Juan County Parks & Fair is soon offering advance camping reservations for San Juan County year-round residents, for two weeks only. Proof of residency is required.

Early resident reservations will be accepted from January 26 until February 9. Email requests (preferred) are accepted at 6 a.m. on January 26 via email parks@sanjuanco.com. After 1 p.m. the same day reservations can be made by phone at 360.378.8420. Hard copy requests may be placed in a drop box outside the office. Resident reservations are not available to reserve online. Final deadline is 4 p.m. on February 9.

Due to the popularity of this program, duplicate date requests may be randomly selected. Two sites maximum per household, per camping stay, with a maximum of two different camping stays. Choose from San Juan, Odlin or Shaw County Parks or the San Juan County Fairgrounds (RVs only).

For locals gathering with nine or more people, please call today to reserve a group camp as early as January 7. Group camping allows you to gather for all activities and helps us manage our Parks for the good of all campers.

To receive a 2022 Resident Reservation Campsite Request form with instructions, please join our emailing list by sending your name and email address to parks@sanjuanco.com. Be prepared to provide documentation of year-round SJC residency. Additional details available at www.sanjuanco.com/parks.
