bord1niowa......Curt 79 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 We're in the 200 loop and if they get done in the next week and a half, I'll post it. They will be pouring new pads. Haven't started yet though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Making the pads a little wider would solve some of the issues we have parking in a full hook up/preferred site ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCTigerCock 171 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Our experience in July of last year was they couldn't go wider if they wanted to unless they cut trees. We couldn't put the awning out because of a tree in the way. Our site could be expanded backwards by covering the shell pad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roller ... aka Ed 351 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 If I couldn't get the awning out, I wouldn't consider it an appropriate site for our 5er. Maybe it's being picky, but the patio & awning is part of what I'm paying for imo. I shouldn't have to park with the wheels in the shells (or so far forward the nose is almost in the road) to get both the slide & awnings out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YodaGirl 13 Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Are they extending the pads to remove the shells or just replacing the pads? That thought crossed my mind, as well. If it's going to be open by the 16th, though, would they have time to remove the shells? Would they even want to?If I couldn't get the awning out, I wouldn't consider it an appropriate site for our 5er. Maybe it's being picky, but the patio & awning is part of what I'm paying for imo. I shouldn't have to park with the wheels in the shells (or so far forward the nose is almost in the road) to get both the slide & awnings out.I don't blame you. I'd want to be able to put my awning out, as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCTigerCock 171 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 We didn't mind since we carry a ez-up for the grills and cooking area. And we were concerned about the odd afternoon thunderstorm, so no loss. Plus it was to freakin hot to be outside anyway. Now in December we are going premium pet, so we don't have to mess with shells and have area for awning and ez-up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bord1niowa......Curt 79 Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Bad news guys and gals. Spoke with a couple of the demolition crew working the loop and they said nothing in size etc will be changed. They are only tearing out the old concrete and putting in new exactly the same. They said demolition should take about 1 week or so and then the crew will come in to level again with dirt. Then the concrete crew will be pouring. I asked if they had an ETA but he said he didn't know for sure. I then mentioned soeone wanted to stay there in about 3 weeks and he said it SHOULD be done. Of course a lot can change due to weather.

LONE-STAR 370 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 River Country lifeguards have all the answersIt's true that's why they had to close River Country. All the life Guards went to guest relations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
