Come Friday, September 28, 2012,
The Brothers of PXL Invite You to Join Us
For a Weekend Clamp Beside the Kern River
As We Mark Our Return to Clamp Okihi!
Camp Okihi lies on the northern banks of the Kern River about ten miles east of California Highway 99. The park-like setting is one that we believe was appreciated by everyone who attended our 50h Anniversary Fall Doin's. When we were once again able to reserve the entire Clampground for our Fall 2012 Doin's we jumped at the chance.
Owned by the Kern County Parks Department, Camp Okihi has two beautiful lawns, trees, picnic tables, barbeques and an amphitheater equipped with fire rings and benches, which is a great place for swapping stories and telling lies. We'll be far enough away from civilians for you to let your hair down - assuming you have any - and while we discourage swimming without a life vest due to the Kern's notorious under currents, with the right gear and a fishing license, you can fish to your heart's content - and this time there's no one to drain off the water before we get there!
The Clampsite has easy RV access, and these grounds are big enough to accommodate the first 100 Clampers itching to party, so while you should have plenty of room to set up your tent, you need to RSVP pronto to make sure you get in. We just ask that you leave the burn barrels at home and not park your vehicle on the lawn to avoid running over the sprinklers.
Brothers, you won't regret this one. We've planned some very special stuff for this very special weekend, so this is one you will not want to miss. Experience great grub, our second "1st Annual Yucca-Off," the CLONG Show and other planned activities intended to leave your sides aching and you wishing for an extra day of camaraderie with the Brothers of PXL.
Experience Clamping hospitality at its best, all with a bunch of great guys in one of the most peaceful and outstanding places you would ever want to Clamp in Kern County.
So reserve the weekend - September 28th-30th - We'd be honored to have you join us.

ABOUT CLAMPING WITH PETER LEBECK
Kern County is a big place and it covers all kinds of terrain: from the driest portions of the Mojave Desert, to the snowiest pine forests of the Sierra Nevada; from the oak woodlands of Walker Basin to the still wild grasslands of the San Joaquin Valley. Then of course there is Fort Tejon, Pine Mountain, the Kern River Valley, the Tehachapis, and…you get the drift. Kern County IS a BIG and interesting place.
And needless to say, we do try to get around. So if you are looking for something different, always make sure to look us up when you are planning your Clamping Calendar. If you've Clamped the desert, try the mountains. If you've Clamped the mountains, try the desert. But always make an effort check with us because we may be going someplace you'd really, really enjoy, and we do get around.
PXL Clampouts are not so large that you'll ever feel lost, and not so small that you'll ever feel like you're crashing someone's private party. Brothers visiting from other chapters are always made to feel welcome, and we especially encourage you to drop by if you live in Kern County or the adjoining areas of southern and central California.
At Peter Lebeck we plan two, full-weekend Clampouts every year, one in the spring and the other in the fall, and we favor overnight outings because we believe it is the surest way to make sure that each of our Brothers makes it home safely. At Peter Lebeck we also believe that Clamping is as much about plaquing as it is about camping and camaraderie, so we try to mount at least one erection every year and we try to Clamp near by. So won't you join us for the adventure? We'll make sure you get an extra helping of Timbo's beans.
