It’s that time of year again! UVSA-MW is proud to announce that the 2009 Summer Extravaganza will be this August 7-9, 2009 at Potato Creek State Park in North Liberty, Indiana.
Start looking for your sleeping bags and tents because this year will be bigger and better than ever! Instead of a two day camping trip like previous years, this year will be three days! That means more food, more fun, and more time for friends!
