Kinda' what I meant - sorry I wasn't clear. Instead of almost everybody at the group site fire, it was more stroll around and visit the other fires. I never did make it to site 1 or 10(?)

Who is this Frank guy you speak of? I'm The Tree Frog! Lol.

No, site 1 people are on both HF and The FB NJ Hammock Club group. I floated around a lot. I did see everyone at the big fire for dinner and raffle.

Another notable NJ Statute:

https://www.nj.gov/dep/njstateparkpo...20Statutes.pdf

A person shall not use or operate any noise producing machine, vehicle, device, or
instrument in a manner that in the judgment of the Superintendent or designee, or designated law
enforcement personnel, is disturbing to other park visitors, campers or employees. In camping and
overnight facilities, the hours of 10:00 P.M. to 6:00 A.M. are designated "quiet hours."

I hope we don't have to revisit this topic at future NJ Winter Hangs.

I'll be sure not to set off my car alarm until after the designated hour, then.
