Online registration for Alumapalooza 2012 is now closed. If you want to try to come last minute, just call us at 802-877-2900 ext 4 and we’ll try to fit you in!
If you only want to attend without camping on site, just show up and visit the Vendor Tent to purchase a badge. There’s no need to call in advance, as there’s no limit on the number of walk-in attendees.
T-shirt sales ended on May 13. If you want one, we may have a small number at the event, in limited sizes.
See you in Jackson Center!

We get a lot of people who travel with their dogs in Airstreams. So a special new event for this year’s Alumapalooza will be just for dogs (and their owners): Yappy Hour!
Held on the first day of Alumapalooza (Tuesday) at 6 p.m., Yappy Hour will include a quick orientation, a homemade treat for every dog made by event hostess Kristiana Spaulding, and a bit of play time out in the field with the other dogs. It will be a great way to meet other dog owners and make new friends right away.
So we’re calling all dogs to make their reservations now for Alumapalooza 2012! There are only a handful of Airstream spaces available—don’t delay!
Looking for some outdoor activities while you’re at Alumapalooza? We’ve got plenty. Every morning there will be yoga on the grass (there’s a tent in case of inclement weather). That’s always popular, so get there early! On one day we’ll also have a special breathing and meditation class, plus kids’ yoga.
On two days we’ve got some easy bicycle rides planned, around Jackson Center and Shelby County. Each ride will be arrowed so you can go with the group leader at scheduled times, or anytime you want by yourself.
On Saturday morning there will be the “Tiger Trot” annual 5K and 1K fun runs, held at the Jackson Center High School. For more info and to pre-register, visit this website.
For the kids, there will be a pool party at the renovated Jackson Center Outdoor Pool and Splash Park, Friday afternoon. Don’t forget your swimsuit when you pack the Airstream!
This is just a taste of what’s happening at Alumapalooza this year. We’ll post the full schedule on this website in early May, and all registered participants will get an email from us when it’s ready. Get psyched —you’ll be busy!
This year at Alumapalooza we will have two of the Dutch Oven seminars that were so popular last year, once again led by Matt Hackney. If you might want to join in and learn more about Dutch Oven cooking, bring your own Dutch Oven and the ingredients for the recipes listed below. We’ll supply the charcoal and cooking area. But be warned, if you cook, be prepared to share!
Our tentative schedule (to be posted about May 1) calls for these two cooking seminars:
Wednesday, May 30, at 1:30 pm: “Easy Dutch Cobbler” Download recipe here
Friday, June 1, at 9:00 a.m.: “Chocolate Cobbler” Download recipe here
Sponsored by the great folks at Lodge Logic. We’ll have some Lodge cookware as door prizes, too!
