Hi Everyone:

Please note that Twin Oaks Campground is not keeping a waiting list for this
year's RATS. I called them a couple of weeks ago, and again today after reading
the previous posts but they told me that they decided not to keep a waiting
list. I was advised by John Finn to stay at Fair Harbor where last year's RATS
was held and I have made reservations there. I would prefer to stay with
everyone at Twin Oaks if a spot is available.

Best wishes.

I'm not out to ruffle any feathers but here goes. On this one I have to agree
with Bob Loomas. You have some poor joker sitting on the waiting list for RATS
since last year. Now comes a cancellation and a fellow that decided yesterday
that he wants to go is able to jump the line. I know life is not fair but I will
not be a party to stacking the deck. I started to call Leroy the other day about
his spot but just felt it was not the right thing for "me to do". I think the
ones organizing the RATS should have it understood with the campground
management to allocate cancellations to the next person on the waiting list.
FWIW.
This is my thoughts and you have a right to yours.

There are spots being held for birder and there is a standby waiting list and
the campground has the list.
so what I am saying is why should people be a loud to jump the line .

Bob,

Is the waiting list specifically for Birders???? We don't know. That is why we
posted on the forum because we wanted to make sure that our spot would go to a
Birder that wanted to attend the RATS Rally rather than whoever happened to call
in to the campground "just looking for a spot for the weekend."

PLEASE let us know. If the waiting list is specifically for those Birders
wanting to attend RATS then we'll just cancel and let it go to the next Birder
on the list.

Thanx..... didn't mean to step on anyone's toes. Just trying to make sure a
Birder gets the spot as opposed to "Joe Schmo just passin' thru on vacation"
with no interest or knowledge of RATS.

or otherwise. Two weeks ago I posted on this forum that I could not attend due
to extenuating circumstances first come first served(I reserved a spot upon
leaving RATS last year). I received one response. I gave my position to him.
Should I have done something different?

What happen to the waiting list?Or is that just a bunch
of bull
Bob Loomas 1985 PT 36

We waited for someone to respond to our post. We then cancelled and gave the
park that persons name. He then called and took our place. If you just cancel, I
presume the next person on the list gets the spot.

So Leroy, how does this standby list work? Do we just cancel our res and they
automatically let the next person on the list know? Or does it require a little
more coordination than that?

Your input is appreciated!

just today let our spot go to a fellow Birder. The campground will hold the spot
for a limited time. It's easy to coordinate but if you snooze you lose. I hate
to miss it, it's a great show. That will be $1.000,lol

REALLY hate to have to do this but we are going to have to cancel our RATS
reservations we made last fall. Our travel schedule doesn't allow us to make it
this year as we must be in Austin TX by no later than Nov 1st.

If anyone is interested in taking our spot as we cancel please let us know
SOON so that we can coordinate the timing and let the campground know who will
be calling them to reconfirm the spot they are holding for us.

RATS NEXT YEAR FOR SURE!
