Sheppard AFB FamCamp Survey |

Please TAKE THIS SURVEY for a new FamCamp at Sheppard AFB, TX!
Sheppard AFB located in Texas, is considering developing a FamCamp there. This is a great location near Wichita Falls. They currently don't have a FamCamp (Family Campground) located there, and there's no other military campground in this area.
Sheppard AFB has created a very short survey to determine the need for a FamCamp. This is our opportunity to let them know that there is a demand and it would be well utilized.

Featured Facility - Fort Chaffee RV Park, AR |

Editors note: This article was written in May 2012 by Roxanne LeBlanc and is used by permission.
If you haven’t been to Ft. Chaffee in several years, you are in for a surprise. The old camp ground is now privately owned and although it is called Ft. Chaffee RV Park, it is not part of Ft. Chaffee. Ft. Chaffee has been split up and the old part is commercially owned and operated. The camp ground that is military is on post.
There are 20 sites and all are 50amp, water and sewer, and they do take reservations. Built on a hill the campground has 3 tiers. The lower tier has 5 sites that are on jetties built out onto a small pond. The middle tier circles around to the upper tier that has a couple of pull through sites. Satellite and cell phone reception is good as is the Virgin Mobile air card. There are no bath houses or laundry. The interior roads are gravel as are the site pads. All seem to be quite level. There are street lights but they are still not hooked up to power. VERY dark at night. No patio and no picnic tables. Basically just a place to park with full hookup. On the middle tier if you don’t back in all the way, there will be shade in the afternoon at the rear of your RV. Most sites are sunny all day. The grass is a la natural. If you set out a bird feeder you will be constantly re-filling your feeder. News travels quickly among the feathered flocks.

Featured Facility - March ARB FamCamp, CA |
|
|
|
|
While in the area, we stopped by March ARB in California to check out the FamCamp. This campground is near completion of renovations and upgrades. The contract calls for construction to be completed by April 1st, 2012. During our visit in early March, it appered to us that construction was almost complete.
We followed the directions posted here to find the FamCamp without problems. Although, some road construction near the FamCamp made us go through a parking lot. RV's are to enter the base through the main gate. When approaching, you might question if there's any barriers that will make entrance difficult. There are none. The main gate entrance takes you around in a large loop before you actually get the gate. Large RV's will have no problems. After gettig theough the main gate, MWR requests that all campers stop at the Outdoor Recreation office FIRST to get your site assigned. They've requested that campers DO NOT go to the camgpround and occupy a site until after visiting Outdoor Recreation. The Outdoor Recreation office is located at Bldg# 434 located at 1870 Graeber Street. However, the roads are small and maneauvering a large RV in this area would be a challenge. There is a large parking lot a few buildings past the Outdoor Recreation office that would make it easier.
