Join Gary and Margo Warner for their legendary Pismo Beach Rally Trailer Crawl!

Stroll from trailer to trailer and enjoy delicious food and beverages provided by your fellow campers. This year, we’re trying something a little different—we’ve divided the evening into three serving times. This will help keep the group together and give each host a chance to serve for about 30 minutes before joining in on the fun.

Since it gets dark early this time of year, bring your lanterns, flashlights, and glow gear, and be sure to light up your trailer with all your beautiful exterior lighting.

• 5:00 p.m. – Start in the upper right-hand corner of the map.
• 5:30 p.m. – Head down toward the campsites in the lower right-hand section.
• 6:00 p.m. – Hit the sites around nearer the host site (175) and end up there for a lantern-lit trailer stroll around 6:30-ish, where we can walk off all those tasty calories!
• 6:30 pmish - Lantern Walk. Meet at host site 175

Let’s light up the night, have fun, and celebrate our amazing community. And don’t forget to thank your fellow camper hosts who volunteered to serve you!
