• There are TWO areas available for camping right on the CanIRON 8 grounds:
- An open field area, adjacent to the CanIRON grounds, designed for RV's or trailers (with tent use as well). These spaces are about 20 x 40 feet, and have possible electric and cold water hook ups. There are no direct waste hook ups, but there is a waste dump station on site.
'Sharing' limit is one vehicle and no more than three tents.
- A forested area, set back at the rear of the Sportsplex grounds, designed for tent use only. These spaces are about 20 x 30, with only limited electric and water points (no direct hook ups).
'Sharing' limit is one vehicle and no more than two tents.
ï There are flush toilets and showers available in a building set between these two camping areas.
