Camptown Races: Telephone: 804-752-6678 Who hasn't sung Camptown Races" with its race track five miles long, oh, de doo-da day." Camptown Races will be held on May 12 this year at Graymount Park, which is two miles north of Ashland, Virginia. These thoroughbred flat races are always held on the second Saturday in May. </font> Sigh. Who can we believe these days http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...m/rolleyes.gif |

Both towns are approximately 40 miles apart from each other. |

Visit the Christmas Museum in Paradise (off route 30). It sounds corny but is really quite darling. There are also some very good restaurants in Lancaster (I go there on business and was much surprised).
|
Sesame Place on I95 between Philadelphia and Trenton. Take your bathing suit; many of the rides and attractions feature water.
|
Longwood Gardens, Kennett Square, PA is almost in Delaware but if you want to go that far from Camptown you will be enchanted.

Visit Bushkill Falls in the Delaware Water Gap recreational area. Beautiful waterfalls and great hiking.

I usually go with the standard 15-20%, unless they have their hoof out for more. But I have also heard some tip as much as 30%, but I think that is bull. http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...um/biggrin.gif ------------------ Da DOK |
