2008 Camp MountainFest is Back!!!!
In years 2005 and 2006 MountainFest LLC held the official MountainFest campground. After the 2006 event the organizers of MountainFest, in an effort to bring you closer to the heart of MountainFest, allowed another entity to facilitate your camping experience. However after hearing your suggestions MountainFest LLC has made some adjustments for the Over 21 2008 campground. For starters Mountainfest LLC is taking the management reigns once again. More importantly we've moved the campround and put you, the camper, within an eye's view of the primary venue at Mylan Park. In fact, the campground is now within the confines of Mylan Park. Most importantly, we've added a new wrinkle with the Coal Bucket Saloon which will be located right next door to the campground. Look at it this way... with the Coal Bucket Saloon we've brought a little bit of the party you see at Myrtle Beach Bike Week to Morgantown. This year plan to be treated to the best Over 21 camping offered at MountainFest 2008.
