Kilt Kamp 2018 - The Registration Details

[KiltedKnome]

A number of people have asked about possible places to stay, etc., while at Kilt Kamp.

Kilt Kamp 2018 is held at the Freedom Kilts shop at 1919 Fernwood Road, Victoria. This is in the neighbourhood of Fernwood (what is referred to in Victoria as a small urban village). In the past, folks have stayed either in AirBnBs, hotels, hostels or RV parks. There are several AirBnBs within walking distance, and both of the hostels are also walk-able (Turtle is closer). Hotels start ranging further afield so you might find yourself using either buses, taxis or personal car. Hotels also tend to be more expensive. Some sources are listed below.

AirBnB: www.airbnb.ca
Hostels: http://www.oceanisland.com/

Hotels: Check through sources like Expedia.ca
RV parks: Check on-line

Breakfasts are provided each day on site during Kilt Kamp, plus munchies throughout the day. We have a refrigerator that folks can keep some food in for lunches, or you can visit one of the neighbourhood eateries or groceries. At least one night we bring in pizza, and we also plan a Kilt Night at the locale pub.

If you are bringing a car and need to drive to the shop each day, please be aware that parking is challenging in the Fernwood area. We have a few spaces in the back of the shop on a first come, first serve basis. Otherwise you will need to park on a side street that is not posted Residential Only, and then walk the few blocks to the shop.

Is it best just to grab the shuttle or would there be someone able to pick up students.

I have in the past driven to the airport to pick up folks, but I have to be able to consolidate into small groups. Once flight schedules are determined, we can look at options.

We will start a new thread once Kilt Kamp starts, but I thought I would post some of the fabrics arriving in our shop in preparation for the event.

Yes, but you spelled it that way permanently in the concrete sidewalk in front of the shop..... And this after we had been married quite a few years!
