We hope everyone is staying cool and enjoying everything our parks have to offer this summer.

The weather here has been extremely hot this year. One day we were out shopping and, when we got back to the car, it registered 124o, now that’s hot! We looked at each other and said, “What are we doing here?” Then, of course, we remember the wonderful winters we’ve had and once again grin knowing we can bare it; after all it is only for a few months.

If you happen to be in the area in July there are a few things to look forward to July 4th there will be music and movie madness in the park at the Palm Desert Civic Park with fireworks in the evening. On July 13th, at Fantasy Springs Casino, the world famous Lipizzaner stallions will be there to entertain the entire family. I really love to watch a beautiful horse show. Last but not least, on July 19th for the hippie era, there will be a hippie fest with many stars and music from the sixties.

Located just off Highway 111 on Cathedral Canyon Drive, the Resort offers spacious, shaded sites, showers and restrooms, laundry facilities, club house, crystal-blue pool and spa, children’s wading pool, shuffleboard courts, horseshoe pits, public walking and bike path with towering trees and view of the mountains. We are centrally located close to golf courses and a variety of fine dining. Also nearby are the Museums, Theaters and Casinos of the Coachella Valley.

Come stay with us and relax while having a good time. Tell all your RV friends about us and our “friendly staff.”

Managers,
Ed & Linda Little

Happy
4th of July!

What a great summer we are having here at Hidden Springs Resort. Almost everyday is filled with either work or fun. One thing that has not been fun is the afternoon thunder storms, during temperatures soaring in the upper 90o, without cooling us off a bit.

Last month my daughter was married here at Hidden Springs Resort. Cheryl McDaniel and Charles Rosevally. Charles is one of our volunteers. They had a short sweet ceremony performed by one of our members, minister David Day at the pavilion. A reception followed with food and a DJ. The whole park attended along with family and friends. Everyone had a great time!.

Wow!! Can you believe that summer is here and we are ready to celebrate another Fourth of July? Our volunteers and I have big plans for those camping with us.  Hidden Springs will hold our annual Independence Day celebration with many special events. We will kick off Friday night with a fireworks show on the river. Saturday and Sunday morning be sure to bring your appetite for Granny`s scrumptious homemade biscuits and breakfast, in the kitchen. Several activities are planned for children and adults throughout the day. Saturday night the band Black Creek will entertain everyone with country and variety music at the pavilion from 8:00 pm until 12:00 am. Everyone get ready to shake a leg.

Are you ready to get away from all the hustle of the hectic work life? Pack your RV, grab your fishing tackle and head down south to Hidden Springs Resort where a very friendly and helpful staff awaits your arrival. We are a great family campground offering both RV and tent sites, and rustic cabins along the Bogue Chitto River. We have a basketball and tennis court, playground, nature trail, two swimming pools and a spring fed creek to play in. If you love the country, fishing, nature, tubing the river; or, if you are wanting to just relax and unwind or just want to kick back and watch the river flow by, Hidden Springs is the place to be.

We  are still picking up after our last storm. Nothing compared to what Rita at Tomorrow’s Stars is going through. Our prayers are with you.

We are getting ready for July 4th. A big weekend is planned. Our big event is the golf cart races. Someone brought me an idea to do the regular races with the gas carts and the electric ones. The idea is that after the real races, have one that everyone drives in reverse; don't know if that one is going to happen. Most have a hard time going forward. Ha! Ha! The kids will have bingo and a miniature golf tournament and, if the weather permits, we will have a water balloon fight. For the adults, besides the races, there will be a poker run, decorated golf cart parade with prizes, our annual Steak Fry, Chinese Auction and 50-50 raffle. Backwood Karaoke will be here on Friday and Saturday. Everyone gets a big kick out of it since almost everyone is good at it; but there is a few that wouldn't make it on the Gong Show. They all have fun and that is all that matters.

Our Marines were back here camping out and had a great time. These boys will be leaving in August for Paris Island for boot camp and I wished everyone the best of luck in there venture. Another group will be arriving in July before they go in September. They came this year ready to go in the woods to pick up the limbs and twigs for their bonfire; but, we helped them out with the trees we had down. They couldn't thank us enough. The time they saved was used to play games before they ate. Then they hiked through the woods.

On June 28th we are having A “special thanks” goes to: (1) all the members that have and still are cutting grass and keeping the park looking terrific and, (2) all the members that are beautifying the park with flowers and trimming hedges. The park really looks great.

Our clubhouse was consumed in flames on Saturday, June 14, 2008.

Our multi-functional building used for a reservations office, library, kitchen, dining room, entertainment, etc. has been lost to us; but, we feel very lucky to inform you that the park is still open to our members. The Ohio State Fire Marshall's office has ruled the cause of the fire that destroyed the RV park clubhouse to be accidental.

Lightning was the most probable cause of the fire according to the Fire Marshall. The fire likely began in the northwest corner of the clubhouse. The all of our volunteers that have been helping us with clean-up and donating office supplies such as file cabinets, adding machine and numerous office supplies. It is these campers that make our park so special.

The computer, which held all the park’s reservations, was destroyed, as were the phone lines. We have replaced the computer and the phone lines are back up. With July 4th fast approaching, this may cause some confusion. "It might just be first-come first-serve." Please be patient and understanding with the staff upon your arrival, they are doing their best under the circumstances.

We want to encourage members to come visit. In addition to our 4th of July activities we are planning our annual Christmas in July on the 26th. We will have a lot judging contest for the best decorations, hayrides with Santa, and games for the kids. The weather has been beautiful, so please come down and visit our park we promise that you’ll have a great time.

Manager,
Rita Shaffer
