Looks like I may be camping Thursday night. I was wondering the same thing.

There is usually 2 or 3 waiting in line for the shower in the morning.
No waiting for the bathroom.

Joseph's from SC. He'll just stand outside under the hose. Heck, he won't even have to work the pump.

There is a system sorta. Put your towel in line on the counter. That way you can kinda guess how long the wait will be. One towel approx 15 min two towels 30.

The more towels the quicker you need to be!

Also, we need to be good guest. Please clean the shower when you finish.


Good wife, good friends & a Cessna 150. Life is good.

That would be nice too.
For some reason the floor in the shower room gets very wet and we shouldn't but the burden on the
Airport personnel to clean up after us. After all they are kind enough to host us every year so we should be considerate guests.

It just seems like it would be common courtesy to me, which unfortunately isn't all that common, to clean up when you're done,.

I do try to keep the counter in the bathroom around the vanity cleaned/dried up after I wash my hands. It's usually full of water from other airport guests.

Force of habit I guess, as we're asked to do the same here in the office to keep the water from seeping into the counter under the sinks.
