CITY OF TYBEE ISLAND OFFERS 5th ANNUAL
“OPEN HOUSE - CAMPGROUND CELEBRATION”
AT RIVER’S END CAMPGROUND & RV PARK
The City of Tybee Island is proud to offer a showcase where life and lifestyle meet at the
River’s End Campground & RV Park. This free event is a “homecoming” for those who
frequent from far away while providing an opportunity to those who live locally a
chance to celebrate the partnership forged in July of 2006 between the City of Tybee
Island and the Chatham County Recreational Authority. This initiative made the
preservation of the property possible to serve as a timely reminder of the passive and
pastoral nature of Tybee’s days of yore. As a celebration of these opportunities, the City
of Tybee Island invites all citizens to experience the atmosphere offered at the
campground with an “Open House - Campground Celebration” on Friday evening,
November 19, 2010 from 6PM – 8PM at the River’s End Campground & RV Park.
Sites are still available for the weekend! Parking will be located near the Tybee Island
Dog Park on Fort Avenue, as well as the City of Tybee Island Police Station on Van Horne
Street. From there, the campground is just a short hike down Fort Avenue on the right.
Campers of all ages are welcomed as we cook hotdogs on the grill or by the campfire
and we wrap up the meal with a delectable, old-time favorite, S’Mores. (For those of
you that don’t know what a S’More is , it’s a sandwich of graham cracker and chocolate
bar with a roasted marshmallow - Delicious!) Festivities will include a hay ride for the
children, kids’ activities, and other fun stuff!
The City of Tybee Island would like to thank the sponsors for this event for each of the
forms of sponsorship provided to make this event successful. These include Douglas
Jones’ Fish Art’, Tybee Island Arts Association, Wal-Mart, and the Tybee Island YMCA.
