Event Booth | First Aid Station |
The event booth will be stationed near the camping area. The booth will be open for support and collection of payments for the Splash Cafe bread bowl clam chowder and raffle tickets. The first aid station will also be available for those requiring basic medical treatment.
Event gear and UltimateYota gear will also be available at the event booth. |
With the success of our first ever GPS Challenge held during the 2008 Pismo Jamboree, we have upped the ante by making the challenge more difficult and exciting.
The 2010 Pismo Jamboree GPS Challenge will be a team based event, with each team consisting of two vehicles.
Using a handheld / vehicle GPS unit, each team will be required to navigate its way to a set of coordinates available at the event booth. At each coordinate, a challenge will be located in the GPS challenge container. Complete each task for each coordinate and return back to the event booth to submit the team's completed GPS Challege.
This is a unique way to explore Oceano Dunes, and to enjoy the activities that you may never get a chance to do again. Have fun!
Check back in here from time to time for updates concerning required equipment, rules, and more detailed information. |

Raffle Prize Fundraising We are proud to have many vendors sponsor the Annual Pismo Jamboree. Raffle tickets will be available for purchase at the event booth during the event leading up to the raffle after dinner on Saturday night. The raffle tickets will be $5 each, 3 for $10, 10 for $25. Traditionally we have sent net proceeds of the raffle fund to the Friends of Oceano Dunes (http://www.oceanodunes.org/) organization to help keep Oceano Dunes SVRA open to the public but due to the recent tragic accident at the MDR California 200 race in Lucerne Valley on August 14, 2010 we have opted to donate the net proceeds to FAST-aid (http://www.fast-aid.org/california-200.html). Your raffle donation will greatly help California 200 tragedy. |
We face the reality of losing many of our trails we enjoy exploring. The closures of many of our beloved trails are partly due to the unsanitary conditions left by fellow explorers that do not do their part to "pack it in - pack it out". We would love to continue enjoying exploring Oceano Dunes SVRA and would like our members and participants to collect any trash you locate.
The Ranger Station offers free trash bags with your camping pass, so please make sure to receive them and use them to your potential. The park does not offer any trash services so please make sure to pack out any and all trash to the main recycling and trash dumpster found at pole 2.
Please make sure to clean up around your camp site when departing from the event. We strive to leave our camp area cleaner than we had found it. |
