Seen this on Facebook posted at Long Shoal, not sure if it's all the corp campgrounds but I think it is. Great idea to get away from all the craziness.

It’s on Fakebook you know it’s true! :dono:Rofl
Dunno.... Recreation.gov still sez $15-$30 per night. Wouldn't get too excited yet.
I think all it means is that they're not going to be going out and checking parking permits, camp permits, shelter rentals, etc. Just my 2¢
Shower house is still free. :biggrin
Same sign on deposit box at boat ramp yesterday.
The St. Louis corp. district has on there website all campgrounds will be closed after March 19th? Haven't seen anything on the Kansas City's website yet other than vistor centers we be closed.
Who knows? Maybe there won't be a spring camp?
Now that would be going too far. IMO this overblown situation should be calmed down. As infections have not been as bad as feared and spoke with my daughter in law who is doc in LA county with 24MM folks, tens of thousands of homeless with awful hygiene and many many illegals with terrible diseases that were wiped out mid last century and it is remarkable how small the infectious rate is there. 11 as of sunday with none being the bad strain that kills. With the huge population of chinese, vietnamese, koreans, SE asians of all kinds who travel back and forth a ton during chinese new year and that small a level of incidents? I would say the quick travel ban to places infected was huge in making this less serious. We shall see how it all turns out.
So very few in MO and region would lead us to think we should be good by camp.
I've been keeping up with this as best I can because my better half would fall into the High Risk group because of asthma! They are saying now, that it is starting to slow down in China where it began! They discovered it in Nov! That's 3+ months! Now during Spring Break young people are gathering all over to party and have a good time, they don't have a clue as to weather they are sick or not. They think they are invincible, we all know how that is, biggest problem with that is it take 5-7 days for symptoms to appear and by then they could have spread it over MILES because you will spread it before you know you are sick. I'm doing my best to stay away from people just because I'm not ready to get rid of my wife. Stay safe!
Welp. Crappie camp or not I'm off that week so I will sleep on the boat if I have to. I'm fishing

Well they may close the ramps and stuff but theres gravel ramps that can be used.
This is a new virus and nothing really known about it so I am glad they are taking these steps now. Hope it is over soon. Everyone has fish catching to do.
Just heard they told everyone at Long Shoal campground to leave, they are closing it. :banghead. Can't believe this.
The free camping didn't last long! I'm sure Bucksaw will close too.
I don’t understand the camping thing closing some houses are closer together than tents and campers.
Yep just got a refund from Bucksaw for the week of spring camp. :bash:dono
Guess it's official now, just got a cancellation message, Bucksaw closed 3/19-5/15 due to public safety concerns...….DANG IT :banghead
Yup...just got my cancellation notification and refund. Well...can't stop us from fishing, though!
I’m still on vacation so will be fishing. Probably commute from home. I guess the sensible thing would be to cancel and reschedule for fall. I hate to give in to the pandemic but this thing is for real. I have been a pharmacist for 40 years and never worried about a thing, but this thing scares the crap out of me. With our current healthcare system it will be nothing like the swine flu post ww1 (50,000,000 dead) but it is still serious. Since it is a mutation on a virus that attacks other animals that is now being passed human to human, we have no resistance. That makes it bad for those that are immune compromised.
Don’t loose a lot of sleep, we will get this figured out. Already testing antivirals that seem to work. We don’t have the best healthcare system in world without a reason. I know it’s expensive but there is no other that compares.
I go back to work this week will continue to do what I do there.
Wash your hands! Soap is better than hand sanitizer. Be smart. Don’t go in public if you don’t have to. That being said, I will be back on the water next week.
