Driving to your chapter's area, you might pass several chapters, such as the Hartford Y-Knots, the Fond du Lac County Lighthouse Campers, and the West Bend Kettle Kampers.

Headquarters is the center of Campvention and this is where you will find Tootz and the Pewaukee Barrel Rollers. Throughout the weekend you will hear Tootz announcing when it is time to wake up, when it is time to play games, when it is time to eat at the Chuckwagon or the Sunday breakfast, and when the church service is beginning! Wave as you drive by and come back for a visit!

After the trailers are set-up and supper is finished, it is time for the Friday evening card tournaments!

On occasion, the marlin are running at the same time as the card tournaments. If you are lucky enough to see them, stop and cheer them on to victory!

Let the tournaments begin! Sheepshead, euchre and cribbage tournaments are always a favorite with WCA members!

Some WCA members do not know when to quit! After the tournaments end, you can usually find one or more tables of sheepshead continuing into the early morning.

Friday comes to an end and everything quiets down, except for the muffled sounds of campers relaxing around a late night campfire.

And then .... it is time to begin the second day of Campvention!
