Camping and RV Hook-Ups

The Silver Dollar Fairgrounds is a great affordable and convenient option for participants wishing to stay the night in Chico. The fairgrounds facilities include flushing toilets and showers as well as power options. Pets are allowed, but must be on a leash and attended to at all times. Reservations for non-hookup camping and hookup camping are strongly encouraged and you can reserve your spot when you register online. Camping location is based on a first-come, first-serve basis. Camping reservations can be made on site as well. Although we have plenty of space available, you will want to arrive as early as possible on Thursday, April 21st to secure a good spot.

Prices
Tent dry non-hook up RV camping (price per night per tent/vehicle/RV) - $30
RV camping with hook-up (price per night per vehicle/RV) - $60
