Las Cruces Friends Meeting would like to welcome NM Regional Friends to gather with us April 1, 2nd and 3rd at Leasburg Dam State Park, just north of Las Cruces.
This is our first gathering in person since the Covid 19 pandemic and we are encouraging Friends to spend time with each other, with nature, and in worship.
Covid 19 Considerations: We take the Covid 19 situation very seriously. If you have chosen to not be vaccinated we ask that you please wait until we are not in a pandemic to join our Regional gathering. We will follow current state guidelines for outdoor gatherings. Because of Covid 19 we are not offering in home hospitality for those unable to camp. We encourage you to stay at local motels on the north side of Las Cruces or in Radium Springs.
Food & Camping gear: We ask everyone to plan to bring their own food and camping gear. This gathering will be in the style of a big family camp out. We have reserved the group area at Leasburg which has space for tent camping and 2 RVs.
Campsites: There will be a state park charge of $5 for all vehicles entering each day.
For those reserving their own campsite please do not delay, there is a limited number of electric sites. reserveamerica@reserveamerica.com
For park information: www.nmparks.com 877-664-7787
The cost for an individual campsite with electric (30 or 50 amp) and water hookup is $14 per night.
Park gates are closed at sunset. Those entering later can use code 0911 to open the gate.
There is a dump station at the park.
Pets: We are not allowing pets in the group camping area, but you are welcome to have your pet at your own campsite. Leasburg has a playground and lots of hiking and exploring trails so we encourage families to come.
Time: We will be at the group site from 3:00 pm on Friday April 1st and will leave by noon on Sunday.
