Camping for the Reunion

Midwest Old Threshers offers a 72-acre campground for visitors to stay. The campground has electrical hookups, two dump stations, four restroom and shower houses, and a non-electrical tent area.

There are 909 campsites with 30-amp, 96 campsites with 50-amp electrical, and 70 Full Service Hookup campsites (Gravel Pad, Sewer, Water, and 50-amp service), for reserved camping during the annual Midwest Old Threshers Reunion.

• Individuals reserving or purchasing a campsite must be 21 or older to reserve in their name. All campsites must be supervised by a parent, guardian, or chaperone who is 21 or older.

• Only one vehicle per campsite is permitted inside the campground. Additional vehicles must purchase a $10 parking pass for the Long-Term Campground Parking Lot off-site. Please note that extra vehicles without a pass cannot enter the campground. Plan accordingly. Only one additional vehicle parking pass can be purchased in advance with your reservation; others can be bought upon arrival.

• Payment for reservations must be made with cash, a check, or an approved credit card and must be submitted at the time of reservation. Please be aware that insufficient funds, declined cards, or returned checks will void your reservation.

• The 30-amp and 50-amp sites in the main campground do not offer full services. Water is available nearby(50’ to 200’), and two on-site dump stations are available upon departure. Alternatively, during the event, you can arrange a pumping service through Camper Hospitality.

• Handicapped sites are limited and assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. These sites are designed to be more accessible for leveling and are conveniently located near amenities such as shower houses, trolley stops, or ground train stops. Campers using handicapped sites must display valid state-issued handicapped identification tags or license plates.

• The reservation fee secures your campsite from August 17th to the check-out time of 5 PM on September 2nd, 2024. This fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. A letter confirming your reservation details, including the ID number and campsite location, will be mailed to you via USPS First Class Mail. You must present this letter at campground registration upon arrival.

• From August 17th onwards, campers can secure any available space on a first-come, first-served basis, if not pre-reserved.

• Camper parking is permitted between 8 AM and 7 PM. No campers will be allowed to park after 7 PM. To register a campsite, campers must personally visit campground workers, complete registration, and make full payment upon arrival. Payment is required for the entire stay from arrival until check-out at 5 PM on September 2nd.

• Check-out time on Monday (Labor Day) is 5 PM. Staying past 5 PM will incur charges for additional nights.

• Reservations will be accepted until August 16th, 2024, at 4:00 PM or until all electric sites are booked, whichever occurs first. Any available electric sites after August 17th will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are highly recommended for larger camping units requiring electricity to secure availability.

• During The Reunion, ground trains and trolleys provide transportation between the campground and the main grounds. Additionally, guests can find groceries and ice at the campground store.

• Individuals are welcome to use personal conveyance vehicles (PCV) on the Reunion grounds and the main campgrounds. A vehicle is considered a PCV if it does not exceed 48 inches in length or 32 inches in width, carries one occupant, and travels on three or more wheels. Golf carts, ATVs, Gators, Lawn Mowers, Bicycles, Tractors, Horses, and other related vehicles are NOT considered to be a PCV.

• During the Reunion, mobility scooters are available for rent on the northeast side of the grounds, behind the Paul Anderson Welcome Center.
